See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

DX, I think JZ just called you old.

Dude! Stop putting words in my fingertips! A man who's willing to quote The Producers at the drop of a hat is forever young in my book.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My personal favorite moment of the entire show came earlier, though, when Stewart mocked the tee-heeing giggly us-girls ineptitude of the CNN co-anchors at the end of a serious, depressing story in which a spokesflackster had just lied on-air: he flailed, he giggled, he exploded into righteous expletive-laced fury. I would've had his baby right then and there.

OMG, I KNOW!! In Oprah magazine this month, there is a list of "five women we'd like to trade places with for the day" or something, and Tracey Stewart is on the list. For a minute I was annoyed that they couldn't come up with five women with their own merits, but then I remembered HOW FUCKING TRUE it is.

What is even happening?

JZ, you're a stompy suck up.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

My favorite was jailball. I was good at jailball.

Shouldn't you be a criminal prosecuter, then?

Tetherball, foursquare and kickball were ok.

What's jailball?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Poking my head in for a sec...

Today on the bus I saw an ad that said that if a woman waits too long to have a baby, she might not be able to. Something about how your 20's or early 30's is the best time to have a baby, as the odds of getting pregnant drop off after that.

I forget the name of the organization that did the ad, but I've seen something like it before. Is this some conservative religious thing?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

but by the mid to late 70s dodgeball was a way for popular kids to fuck with unpopular ones with the teacher's permission.

I'm not sure a kid's popularity or unpopularity necessarily correlates with ability to play dodge ball, or any sports activity.

I'd think a 13 year-old would be too physically immature to safely carry a baby to full term.

I think she can do it fairly safely, but the toll on her own body is considerable. Making a whole new human is taxing enough for a full-grown adult female body; it makes unbelievable demands on a body that still needs another 5-7 years of growth and maturation itself.
