I first heard the term on the Wayne's World Madonna sketch.
Oh, I'm sure it was around before then, but that's what I always think of.
Say! look at you! You look just like me! We're very pretty.

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
I'm writing about Tim. The story is called, "BNF/BFD."
It's SO WEIRD. But thanks to Kat, I now have a theme.
It's so awesome to have an English teacher on my AIM list.

Hey, I tried to help, too!
Whatever. I only talk to you because I'm trying to suck up to Ruby.

Yes, Strega and ita both talked me off the ledge.
And then I had pie.

I'm only trying to suck up to Ruby because I think she'll introduce me to ita.
Who will introduce me to pie. I hope.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
You should have her introduce you to Kat. She knows where the best cakes are. The best.

I can't write this without sounding like a jackhole.
Goddamn it, essay. Be funny.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Allyson go all out jackhole. Let your jackhole flag fly. You can always pull back on edit.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Allyson, whenever I've had my students write about themselves, at least half of them are convinced that they must sound like jackholes.
