Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

And "shit I didn't say"!

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Ooh! I like the sidebars.

DJ, send me stories. You don't have to wait to compile them or anything, just write 'em down and email 'em to me.

Herding cats for fun

Ooh, I'm liking the "shit I didn't say" and the sidebars. We can all appreciate the revenge fantasy, after all.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

"We're working very hard to improve customer service. That's our number one priority," Singleton said.

See, that's like killing to lower rates of accidental death.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Well, yes, but there are some of our clients I wish I could fire. Particularly the ones who have their wives who are home all day call 12 times in a row until the person they want answers.

Or the one a few weeks ago who said his wife didn't need to come to their appointment because "I sign for her! I answer for her!" Uhm. No sir. You don't.

Okay...

I'm already getting stories sent to me, which...THANKS!

How do I handle permission to use these stories? Or permission to go back and dig up some of the "shit I didn't say" posts?

No doubt. But improving customer service is a dodgy-assed way to explain that.

If you want to hunt through and find anything of mine, you're welcome to it, Miracle.
