I like money better than people. People can so rarely be exchanged for goods and/or services!

If I only had a brain...

You know, if I had this necklace, it would drive me nuts. I would be constantly adjusting it so that it was true.

Up with the sun

Oh, god. I finally read the intern story.

The first thing she needs to realize is that the number of people who want to intern for SPIN >>>>>>> the number of internships they can actually offer. The number of people who want to intern for SPIN, have music-oriented clips, and didn't use fonts on their resume that made the intern coordinator's eyes bleed is probably also >>>> than the number of internships they can offer.

The second thing she needs to realize is that the internship coordinator is probably doing a lot more than answering emails and writing a few record reviews.

The third thing she needs to do is leave journalism.

The fourth thing is to get over herself.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

There was a follow up insistence email with ASSCAPS AND !!!!!

I hope there was a follow up to the follow up with a SMACK and DOWN, and a side of "stick your spec where the sun don't shine."

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

Cindy, those are not the children you are looking for.

Dammit, Betsy, I was just coming to tell her that those weren't kids, they were droids.

Curses. Far too late.

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

Betsy, I covet the earrings that go with that necklace so that I can get my ears level.

Though I also love the screw earrings. Just because.

(eta: I'm sure no kids raised by Cindy could possibly yell in the street)

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

Chainmail!

That's very pretty, but chainmail tends to catch on your arm hairs.

No, you do not get to ask why I know this.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

My elevator surprised me by telling me

David's talking elevator scares me.

Girl's been whacked over the head with a nail-studded clue-by-four, and she STILL doesn't get it?

I think our friend Krystal was raised with the notion that "everyone gets a trophy" even if they suck.

I am endlessly amused by people who are SURE that The Rules (not the regressive dating book; just, you know, Life's Rules) don't apply to them. That they are SO special, and such a shining star in the firmament that they don't NEED to have a professional-looking resume, and OF COURSE the Intern Coordinator should drop everything to get back to her immediately and soothe her delicate baby feelings.

When I buy people jewelry from uncommongoods, I keep the velvet baggie.

Oh, HELL yeah. Me too.

I would have been more curious if you had mentioned another kind of body hair....
