my new (only ever?) favourite beer video in the world. 4 grown men and a dog in penguin costumes + scottish accents = giggle giggle.
a true indication of excellent writing: the ability to convey the same amount of time in two different ways, within one sentence

Maryilynne Robinson, on "Home"
Marilynne Robinson: I think that the real emotional content of lives tends to be negotiated in terms of small gestures, little courtesies towards one another, little provisions for one another’s comfort, and that whether we’re conscious of these things or not we read them continuously as a sort of…we see them as the fabric of our lives with others, and I think that a great deal of generosity and care and love and so on are communicated in what we would call prosaic gestures, and that’s just lovely to me. It’s a great part of my imagination of the character, really.
Ramona Koval: Because they’re just living their human lives.
Marilynne Robinson: Yes, they are, and they’re also…I mean, if you know someone well and you know what will make them laugh or what kind of food they prefer or what casual meaningless sort of memory you have in common with them, I think that that is as close to a bond of intimacy as you have in the world, and that you can nuance it, you can convey a great deal through it when there is mutual affection, when there is mutual familiarity. And basically I think that’s what the cultures of families and so on consists of. I think it’s very artful really.

the pure awesomeness of this almost warrants the use of expletives.
Eggs Benedict Poutine
