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

Random report from The Land Of Secret Twelve-Year-Olds:

At lunch a few minutes ago I was standing in line at the cafeteria grill behind a nursing coordinator whom I've seen for ages and always admired but never spoken to: spiky hair, big lush body covered in goth-lite wear or eccentric prints in deeply saturated hues, extremely cool blood-red cat-eye glasses, a snarkful face, and a big laugh.

Today the grill line wasn't moving, wasn't moving, and wasn't moving. She turned to me, rolled her eyes forever, and said, "Painfully slow today."

"I'm sorry," I said. "I can't think right now because I'm too mesmerized by the most Folsom Street glove box I've ever seen," and I pointed to a box of disposable food handler's gloves that featured a picture of a giant begloved hand making a big fierce fist, above copy bragging about its toughness, antimicrobial properties and gauntlet cuff.

She looked, did a beautiful double-take, and totally lost her shit, and we spent the rest of our lunch wait snerking like twelve-year-olds.

And I'm heartbroken that after 15 minutes of Googling, I can't find an image of the box itself; it's such a vast confluence of accidental porniness that I just can't believe it's accidental.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

And it looks like she bits her nails.

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

TEN GRAND?? That's not going to fix his education! She'll be tattooing her cooter to get him through university.

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

Um, why do they refer to her as "Bountiful" in the second paragraph?

$10K does seem like too little. For advertising space on your skin, or for a private education.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The Sales Guy who has taken over the cube near me is the embodiment of Annoying Sales Guy.

He just, at high volume, yelped "sweeeeEEEEEEEt!" and pumped his arms in the air.

I can kill him, right?

Next time he jumps up, take him out with your handy AK-47, Dana.

I think it's your civic duty, Dana.

Dig his heart out with a spoon. No court in the land could convict you.
