Thrive to spite them

(((Tom))) I'm sorry. But it is her loss.

Ah crap, Tom, that sucks. Totally her loss. I mean, she breaks up with you, she breaks up with all of us.

I never liked her.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

{{{Tom}}} I'm so sorry.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

It is, perhaps, not surprising that Wolfram put it much better than I ever could, so all I have to say is WROD.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I mean, she breaks up with you, she breaks up with all of us.

I never liked her.

Always found her a bit uptight, now that you mention it.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Tom, Trudy's right -- just because this girl thought you were calling too often doesn't mean that, empirically, you were, or that that says *anything*, good or bad, about you. Some other girl could have been irritated that you didn't call enough, like Trudy said, and another would have found it ideal.

Still, it sucks. And I'm sorry about that.

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

What everyone said, Tom. Maybe her issue, and definitely her loss, and especially this:

Tom, you did the hard part. Really. This sucks, but don't let that make you not try it again -- this shit ain't easy. But I've been told, it's pretty rewarding.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Ingenious. Killer whales are very clever hunters.
