I miss shrift. Who wants to help me mount a rescue mission?
You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Oh and Sean? You're a whipper-snapper.
HI PETE! MISS YOU!
I feel like this has been used in enough movies to be common knowledge by now
I only know of one... Scent of a Woman, I think....
It tends to be covered in war movies featuring basic training. It's a specific bit of dialog in Full Metal Jacket, where Gunny Hartman asks one of the privates (Joker, I think), what the prupose of looking in the chamber is.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Hi, it's me, Pete, the Husband of Reason. No, I've no friggin' clue what my password is anymore, so I'm asking Jilli to post this for me -
Would he like a stompy to reset his password for him?

Probably, but not right now, as he was not kidding about the mountain of work. It's not quite the same level of work that has devoured Shrift, but still impressive.

Go! Rescue Shrift!

I'm thinking we're going to need booze and cigarettes to start with. And junk food. And a crowbar.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
final event report of the day - with an hour and a half to spare, we are all set up except for the ice, milk and sugar.
I will actually have time to apply lipstick and run a brush through my hair, possibly even read a few pages of a book to relax. wish me lots of money.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

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 just had a meeting in a noisy restaurant, and couldn't hear most of what was said. This is a most annoying problem. I hope the doc can fix my ear this afternoon.
