My Big Brother post isn’t done beyond finishing my diagram, so how about some random shit instead to tide you over?

The Grand Wilshire

The tallest building on the west coast is being built as we speak right next to the PwC building where I work on Figueroa & Wilshire.  When I started working there during the beginning of March, I was able to see that it had reached about the 30th floor in terms of construction.  Now, in the middle of July, it’s already up to the mid-50s!  4 months and some change and 20 floors built.  This building is going up FAST.  Anyway, I’m putting the pictures I’ve taken sporadically just because there was an article today from CurbedLA that is pretty fantastic as it got photos from within the building.  Pretty neat.  If I’m still around in 2017, it will be quite a place to visit, what with it having a rooftop pool and lounge – at the 70th floor!

Gay of Thrones’ Best Moment

So during the recap of Season 5’s Episode 7, Jonathan and Nicole Byer (who should honestly be doing these recaps with him all the time, just sayin’) are laughing as they’re describing Cersei’s moment of “triumph” when she just thought she pulled off getting Margarey thrown into prison.  They tell it as Cersei thinking she was on Oprah but in reality, she was on Maury, as shit was about to go down and she wasn’t about to like it all.   My favorite part comes in when they’re acting like audience members at Maury and Nicole lets out the most perfect “BYE, Bitch!”  that Larry & I use pretty much every day for nearly any reason.  Watch it in the video below and if you’re impatient, jump to the 3:15 mark.  But the whole episode, of course, is quite hilarious.

And that completes my post for the day.  Time to go back to playing the amazing Assassin’s Creed: Rogue.  SOO GOOD.
