You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

should in no way be construed as busting on my favorite TV writer.

Why not? I do it all the time. It's about time I tagged you in.

Otters aren't as sweet as they look. Quoth my friend Mugga:

I 'adopted' one at a sanctuary near us as a Christmas present for [his GF] a couple of years ago. We took the precaution of poking sticks through the fencing to check whether the 'hug me, hug me' faces they were pulling were genuine. We pulled back some badly tangled hemp. Little sods. Then their 'meal' arrived; fish bits in paste with a side order of dead baby chicks.

What a great Christmas present.

And oddly enough, this is slightly related, so if I had the energy I could smoothly work it into conversation in a way entirely unlike this:

So Tim, she said casually, do you have a region-free DVD player?

The status is NOT quo.

People actually adopt them as pets? Really? Or was this an adopt-a-highway kind of thing? I don't think I would ever try to touch one--those teeth look scary. I just think they're adorable when they're all playing together.

Okay. Grading and Pepto Bismol. Ah, the life I lead...

Okay, Kristen? If I ever die in a tragic secretarial accident, in addition to getting rid of my porn before my mom finds it, please also clear the growing folder of photos of Tim off my server.

It looks all stalkery and she'd suspect I had gone mad.

I do, Strega.

Allyson, you were supposed to host The Inside caps! Not my idiot youth.


Kristen - Oct 26, 2005 6:02:25 pm PDT #5513 of 10001

Dude. At this point, you need to make me a list. Because I'm pretty sure there was something else I was supposed to remove from your house other than the porn and, now, the Tim photos.

Also, I edited my earlier post to include this.

Bitch! That's hilarious.

I'm working on the caps MR UNGRATEFUL.

It's really unfair because I was a production assistant and the hair stylist on the movie I was working on did that to me and it was like that for ONE STINKING DAY. Dang.
