And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Somehow, Rick saying this makes me really want to hear stories of whacko people and their creepy personal statements...(is that creepy of me?)
In this context, I'd guess it's more "join the club". However, if you wrote a personal statement about how you want to go into academia so you can spend your golden years pointing and laughing at other people's creepy personal statements, that would be creepy. And weirdly recursive.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
now I'm tempted to write a fake personal statement about my online friends and slashThou shalt not slash thy online friends. Or at least don't admit it.

Dave hasn't called to say he is home from his meeting yet. I am getting worried. Someone tell me not to.

sj, he's standing outside the meeting, which has been over forever, talking to a couple people, and they didn't even realize what time it is.

So then I shouldn't call him again. He knows it's never too late to call me since I don't sleep very well when he's not here. And, I am really sounding pathetic, aren't I?

Don't worry. Maybe he stopped for groceries, or gas?
Oh, I got my official GRE results Saturday, too!
Nice scores! Go meara!
Of course my major question is, why are they looking for someone to teach these classes in the middle of the year?
You could ask...how long the other staff has been there, maybe? To show interest in a stable environment? I don't know, I'm blanking, but I also do when I have to ask those kinds of questions. You'll do fine, I bet.
They want to know you are not a nut.
This is surprisingly true in a lot of situations.

It's 11:30 at night here. Not much is still open.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Ah, yes, the New England Craxy.
At least the midwest knows the beauty of the 24-hour store.
It really is probably nothing to be worried about, sj. Don't fret yet.
