I was gonna post that, but I just didn't care....
The next time you decide to stab me in the back... have the guts to do it to my face.

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

I used to enjoy People's Most Beautiful issues, because I like pretty pictures.
Well, don't go look at the couples section. Really.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Smear the Queer is actually a really good self-adjusting game for a group of kids. If you like being chased, you get the ball and try your skills at running away. If you like tackling folks, there's lots of opportunity and if you like running interference for littler kids from overzealous tacklers, you can do that. Or you can do what I did and run around with the whole pack, but never really take anyone down or get tackled yourself, but still have a good time.It looks like anarchy, but it's anarchy which gives the kids playing a chance to play to their strengths.

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

I did. I don't think I saw a couple in which both parties were beautiful. Cool? Sexy? Perhaps. But it's Hollywood! How can you be so far from the beautiful?

What is even happening?
I have a friendly viciousness.
Me too. Field hockey was cool.Oh yeah, it's all fun and games and possibly one of the few sports other than soft ball and basketball you've ever show any proclivity for, and then you break the finger of one of the most popular girls in school, who is a senior, when you're a sophmore.

I'm sorry. There were some stinky pictures for sure.

When did it get to be Thursday? Gosh.
re: hospitals. Does anywhere in America use the old several-people-in-one-room ward type of setup still? Does England still use the ward system?

Now tagless for your comfort.
I came from a large family, so dodgeball really fit into our game playing dynamic. I don't know if it teaches life skills or not, but I think that it can sharpen physical skills and reflexes. It can be fun if everyone plays in the spirit of the game and isn't out to specifically hurt others--that requires a certain amount of supervision so that that doesn't happen.
I do think that it did teach me that some people are mean and that you need to learn to deal with their shit.

The first time I was hospitalized as a child, I was very disappointed to be in my own room.
Hilary Swank should sue.Yeah. And she should use any monies awarded to buy a freaking cheeseburger. Mischa looks cute with her freckles showing.
