Unasked for copy-edit: (allowing a twelve-year-old daughter deliver papers to strangers after dark) needs a "to" between daughter and deliver.
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

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
Thanks, Wolfram. I'm not quite ready for copyediting yet, I'm still writing.

Your tag here.
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.

I vote we don't show Tim pictures of private islands for sale. I only get to see him twice a year as it is.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The snark or the mush?
Both! But I meant the mush.

I like the excerpt, it's very powerful and well written. I can't say anymore cause I suck as a literary critic.

That was a great piece of writing, Allyson, and from that excerpt (not the Vampire People one which I haven't seen), I can see what bon bon means in comparison to KC (not so much structurally, since it's a small excerpt, but the conversational tone of the writing).

the thing that saved my life was learning that I could get my voicemail set up to email me when I got a message.
Jesse, you are brilliant! I was able to get my voicemail at home to text message my cell phone when I have a message.
