Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I'm that person who beat you up in high school. I was with that clique. You know, the pretty girls with big hair. I made fun of you. You cried. We laughed.
WE'RE STILL LAUGHING.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
So, who wants to start a grammar thread?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Allyson, did you ever hear This American Life's episode titled "The Allure Of The Mean Friend"?
What is it about them, our mean friends? They treat us badly, they don't call us back, they cancel plans at the last minute, and yet we come back for more. Popular bullies exist in business, politics, everywhere. How do they stay so popular?
Prologue. We hear kids recorded at Chicago's Navy Pier and at a public swimming pool, talking about their mean friends; Ira interviews Lillie Allison, 15, about the pretty, popular girls who were her best friends – until they cast her out. (5 minutes)
Act One. Return to the Scene of the Crime. Jonathan Goldstein interrogates the girls, now grown up, who terrorized him and his classmates, years ago in school – and finds they can be just as scary as ever. Jonathan Goldstein is the author of the novel Lenny Bruce is Dead. (18 minutes)
