Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Poor lonely crafts and procrastination thread.

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

Hm. So I was in Macy's and I saw this shirt that would look perfect on Tim. For those of you not following, Tim cannot dress himself. Which is a shame, because when he stumbles into something the right color and cut, he's SO SEXAY.

But i didn't pick it up because I would have to call and ask his size and then he would have been all, "that's weird, you're not my mother, weirdo."

That's my latest story about Tim.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Isn't that when you call his assistant?

I talked to him yesterday and he doesn't know, either.

But John dresses really well, so he should take Tim shopping.

Highly recommend it.

I think either he should get a bonus for not telling you what he obviously knows, or have his pay docked for not knowing it.

I think maybe Tim draws the line at his mailbox, and that his inseam would be going too far.

Oh, there are so many ways to surreptitiously measure an inseam. It's the neck measurement that's tricky.

Name three.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

How does one do this? I mean, how can you get your hand very near a man's crotch surreptitiously?

You just have to register what his crotch is level with. And his ankle or however low you want the pants to fall. It's not tricky like a circumference measurement.

how can you get your hand very near a man's crotch surreptitiously?

Well, I'm veering off topic, but I said that the measuring was surreptitious. In fact, I think there are more ways for you to get your hand near a man's crotch without him thinking of inseam measurements than there are that'll have him thinking of tailoring.

But that's not really what I was suggesting.
