Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm pretty sure you can simulate a used condom without actually using the condom. FYI.

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

In TMI news, co-worker is talking on the phone about how long he's been sober. Go team AA, and all, but I don't need to know when he last lapsed. It's too weird, too much.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

It is really stupid that I'm offended by not passing the test. I mean, it's not like I prepared or anything. But four hours of bullshit should lead to a chance for a million bucks!

I'm curious about this test. And how it is possible for you to fail?!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Python Bursts After Trying to Eat Alligator

My favorite sentence:

In previous incidents, the alligator won or the battle was an apparent draw.

I don't know your religious inclinations if any, but I share hers, and would still be so completely put-off and uncomfortable if a stranger asked me to pray with her on the street.

I was sitting on a bench in the little plaza outside my building, and the fact that she made a beeline for me and sat down right next to me made me wildly uncomfortable. But she was perfectly nice about it, so I didn't want to be rude.

But asking me to pray? It's like touching a strange woman's pregnant belly; other people find it perfectly reasonable behavior, and I find it horribly invasive.

That makes me think of a frog I saw eating a worm roughly its own size out on the stoop of my apartment. The frog kept stuffing more of the worm in its mouth, and the worm kept thrashing around and flinging coils back out again.

Happy Anniversary Nora and Tom!

Instead of turducken, it's pyalligatish!

And kinda gross. As are some earlier posts and ita's too much sharing coworker.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm curious about this test.

30 multiple choice questions. Ten minutes to take it. There were probably 5-6 I just didn't know, and I must have guessed wrong. Northern-most Great Lake, why Lady Godiva rode naked, what sneaker company was founded by the brother of the founder of Puma, what president has been on the cover of Time most often, one or two others I can't remember.

And how it is possible for you to fail?!

I KNOW!
