This is why Aimee is so very very smart.
And this is why Steph is so very very smart.
And pretty.
My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

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
What does peacocky mean to you here, Allyson? Vain? Hoping to show off talents in order to attract females?
I'm going to fumble a little on this, I can't seem to pull the thing out of my head and put it into word-form.
The entire function of that tail is to attract a mate. It's always there on display, even if the peacock is thinking about some tasty snack or wondering if it'll rain, this enormous part of what makes a peacock a peacock is that tail. And so an enormous part of what makes a peacock a peacock is constantly trying to attract sex, even when it's thinking about lunch or if it'll rain.
Sorry for the fumble, I'm still working out the epiphany.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
You forgot Sucks, Aimee.

I get the attractiveness and the hotness, but not from pictures. On film, acting , sure. But not pictures. Of course, most posed pictures of people making sexy faces or whatever make me get all skeeved and clamp my hands over my eyes while I close the window. It's just a thing. It doesn't appeal to me at all.

And this is why Steph is so very very smart.
And pretty.
Just like Aimee.

Does anyone want to tell me what I should spend my Amazon gift certificate on? I got $100 from mom and step-dad for my birthday.

A present for me?

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.
I don't find him attractive AT. ALL.
I look at him and go "Huh. A younger, slightly better-looking version of my favorite developer cow-orker", so I don't get the attraction, either.
