I woke up this morning with no teeth, four limbs full of track marks and three kids who I’m not interested in raising. A way-ahead-of-time warning to those of you who plan to ever hit SXSW: wear a full-body condom and drink lots of water.

Friday kicked off with an hour-long talk with Pharrell Williams.

• A lot of people in Austin actually sleep in booths at their friends’ bars at the end of the night. I’m a wastoid degenerate and all, but I still find that to be the lowest thing since child molester vans with that ladder in the back. Where do those ladders go anyway?

• The prize for worst slogan ever — and I mean ever — goes to Weekender Records, whose motto is: “Home is where the Record Player is.” I’m pretty sure that “record player” doesn’t rhyme with “heart” guys.
