I didn't stop for coffee on the way.
That's way worse than missing your pants.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Wow, Hec. I'm not sure if I could pull some of those off....but I think I'm getting a better idea of what I want.
Accidentally burned a couple of fingers while pouring hot water for my mid-afternoon cup of soup.
First-degree, looks like. More ouchie than serious.
Sparky, that principal is not only a FUCKO, but he's incompetent. I'd love to hear his school board's reaction to his "handling" of the situation.
Connie!!!! Yay!!!!!
He certainly does sound incompetent, especially in today's climate.
I just called the Ohio Quit Line, talked to the counselor and will be receiving patches on or around the 9th of November, official quit date the 14th of November. Am a nervous wreck.
"boys will be boys and they were just roughhousing"
How long is the step between just being a boy and committing aggravated assault? Sometimes I wonder.
DCJ: Heh! Great story.
Aidan thwacking the 'puter and cursing: BWAH! I knew I loved that boy. I foresee many more great stories about Deena's babies.
Weather bad. Work dull. All by myself in the office with very little incentive to hurry up and do some more nothing. Feh. Do not want to go shopping and see scads of Christmas crap, it makes me want to get rid of all my stuff and start anew with a Japanese minimalist style.
"boys will be boys and they were just roughhousing"
I might have stated this in LJ, but my BiL who's in high school was horsing around with a friend who accidentally broke his leg two years ago and his friend got suspended for three days--and the school paid ALL medical bills. So even if this were consensual horseplay (which it so obviously wasn't) there would still need to be repercussions.
I hate the "boys will be boys" rationale. It's fuzzy-minded liberal thinking like that that gets you eaten.
I'm curious as to why you see this as liberal thinking.

Pretty sure Ginger was joking.

Ditto.
I see this as bureaucratic CYA see-no-evil thinking. As long as you keep your distance, you aren't involved. The cliques will be cliques, there will always be a lower social strata, and bullying doesn't exist because it's just boys being boys and girls being girls.
Unfortunately, 15 high school kids in Littleton died because of that sort of stupid thinking.
I'm pretty laid back about things, but if Annabel gets bullied and the school has the same sort of lassiez-faire attitude they had when I was in school, I will find me some Scientology lawyers and sic them on the school and its administration. Because, you know, there's no better answer to evil than a greater evil, especially one that grabs onto its prey and will not let go.
