"Don' be e-scared"
Allyson, I saw you on Sunday and there's no question -- you're way closer to the earth than I am. On a not at all related, but somewhat in a way, note... wouldn't it be interesting if people grew down instead of up? Then you'd know how tall you were going to be when you were born, and you'd know when you were done growing when your feet touched the ground. Also, what would loungers look like if our knees bent the other way?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Like in The Phantom Toolbooth. I love that book. Someone should make that into a movie that doesn't suck.

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

But then if your body produced excess growth hormones, your feet would grow into the ground and you'd be planted like a tree.

This kerfuffling thing could catch on.
This is way more like a kerfluffle.

Wait...doesn't that happen in some children's book or something...it's ringing bells. Dully but still ringing.

Wouldn't the day you stopped being able to float kinda suck?

Never read that, now I guess I'll have to.

That's one of the books where if I hear somebody hasn't read it I'm all, "You're so lucky! You get to read it for the first time still!"

Dude! That's an awesome book. You should definitely read it.

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
Then you'd know how tall you were going to be when you were born
I think this would be a smashing idea if men were the ones giving birth.
Allyson, I saw you on Sunday and there's no question -- you're way closer to the earth than I am.
I want my popup book back.
