Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I got it and responded.

WAH!!!!

Is there any comfort I can offer to make you change your mind???

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Happy Birthday, Fred!

The Burr Amendment -- named for its sponsor, Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.) -- would reverse a 13-year-old U.S. policy banning exports of weapons-grade uranium unless the recipients agree to start converting their reactors to use less-dangerous uranium

Ah, yes, my senator. I'm pretty sure I'm on some kinda list, because I keep sending him letters suggesting that we do things that are somewhat less stupid than things he's suggesting. I hadn't thought that I'd need to tell him, "Don't export weapons-grade uranium, you idiot!" A flaw in my abilities to foresee Senate-level stupidity, evidently.

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

You know, this doesn't even sound appealing

I don't know if it helps any, but the real name is Buca di Beppo.

What is even happening?

Nora, if we feel good, we're gonna crash, and bring so much food you're going to have to bring the leftovers to a shelter, afterwards.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Yay for non-meltyness.

I have The Daily Show Tivoed still. Maybe I should watch before work.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'm kind of purposeful about touch -- either how I do it, or who I do it with. I'd rather spend $30 to get into a bar and not dance than $30 to get into a cuddle party and not cuddle.

Oh, HELL yes. There's not enough Ick in the world for me to express the levels of Ick I get from the concept of Cuddle Parties.

And I really really REALLY doubt my filters would find me someone to cuddle with. That's what people I know are for.

Per-zactly.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Um, yeah, the concept of a Cuddle Party kind of squicks me, and I am Queen Of Cuddling (With Friends And/Or Loved Ones. Possibly REALLY Hot Strangers, If They Wear A Utilikilt And Call Me "Darlin'" First) amongst a tribe of cuddlers.

I'm getting the pig!

I wouldn't pay $30 to cuddle. Especially with strangers.

The hardest thing in this world is to receive my netscape mails.

I can't get Dawn's voice to stop saying this in my head. Thanks a lot.
