Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

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

My body aches all to hell, but other folks have it worse.

ION, how long does it take you to type the alphabet? It took me about 9.1634 seconds. (I'm not a fast typist.)

Can you believe someone did it in 1.5 seconds?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I totally can't beat anyone in the "I had a shitty day" game. I've definitely had worse.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

6.12 and change, but I think it might improve on a different computer. For some reason Safari is being ultra-sluggish, and Firefox is only slightly better. I am just enough of a dork that I really, really want to run back to the office and try again. But I won't, because that would just be fucking depressing.

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

OMG. Just had a knock on my door. My order of LUSH stuff is here. My building manager ran into the UPS guy as he was about to take my package away and tease me for weeks about how they wont let me have it unless I sign.

Allyson, so your day is a little bit better?

oh yeah. I'm going to do my laundry, pack, and start pleading with neighbors to please feed my cat.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

TAR: The Weavers seem to be collectively hated by the other teams much more than I can remember in other seasons. Even Jonathan didn't get so much onscreen vituperation. (Note that Boston Rob started out hated but the effective teams who lasted with him got at least a grudging respect going.)

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

What if I just tell you I looooove you?

Not a day that can be fixed by other people.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Sorry about your sucky days ita and Allyson.

Sometimes it helps just to read about someone else's kerfufle.

This is amazing. There's this board for people into trucks. 19 year old kid offers to sell some new gears. Guy agrees to buy them, sends check. Kid cashes check. Then kid says that he made a typo - he meant to ask for $25 more, so he refuses to send the gears or refund the money. Kid goes back and edits his original post to show the higher $ amount he wants. Harsh language ensues. Fun stuff. Finally, kid sends the gears, but then admits that they are used, not new. That's as far as I've gotten. I can't wait to see what happens next.
