Oh, I like the "meaty face" visual. Also -- ICK. I only paper-routed for a week because my father insisted on tailing me in his car, but now I see why.
You go, girl.

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

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
That's a great excerpt. I finished Kitchen Confidential a few weeks ago and the structure and the balls-out writing really reminded me of the Vampire People excerpt and proposal you have online.

Hey Tim, that Out of Gas thing you wrote is on SciFi right now.
What is it about broadcast television that makes things seem more special? I mean, I can watch this episode as much as I want by popping in a DVD, but it just doesn't seem to be the same.

Our wings are not tired.
Yeah, I'm watching too. The DVD is on the shelf, but it just demands to be watched on the tv anyway.
