Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'll expect your phone over to paint my house this weekend.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, could you try to slightly shrink the sweater in the wash?

Ooh, what a great idea. It could shrink quite a great deal, and still fit. Except -- it's 100% acryllic. Does that shrink? It does say to wash in cold water.

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

Mine'll do ANYTHING.

Will it bring me a latte? No?

Then you've overstated. Why don't you just outrun a cheetah and make some sort of All or None statement about politics while you're at it?

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

You can't make yours do that? Mine'll do that.

There's no reason for it not to be a feature on all phones. Samsung had it, my "moto" doesn't.

could your phone go get me curly fries?

acrylic will not shrink. can you pull a section dawn the length of the back and stich or safety pin it up the inside as sort of a jacked up quick tailoring?

Um, I think that would look just as bad? Unless I really sewed it and cut out the excess. It's also too long. It's basically a big huge ribbed sweater.

OK FINE. It's not the perfect sweater. But! Only $2.35.

Hmmm, dunno. fiber-images.com says If the sweater is made of acrylic, it may not shrink. You can try soaking the sweater in water (or just wash it) and putting it in the dryer on heat to see if it will shrink. Check the dryer frequently to make sure it is not shrinking too much.

So, the worst that can happen if you try is that the sweater doesn't shrink at all.

I wasn't craving curly fries until NOW.

Anyway, I'll spend the $2 to wash it in hot water and see what happens.

Edit: Thanks, Jilli!

Actually, isn't usually the Scooby Gang in oversized clothing anyway?
