I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

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

Kat, doesn't JPL have Rosebowl tix?

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Nope. Definitely not the game and not to the parade this year, either.

I love my Dad. I just don't think I want to spend $800+ for a ticket for him to a goddamn football game where teams he doesn't even care about are playing.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Yeah, that's a toughie. If it was his team, whatever that is, it would be one thing. But to go just for the Rosebowl and not for a particular team that you love or hate - I dunno. Maybe that's best saved for another year.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

The only sporting event I can fathom being worth $800 to attend would involve Ben Cohen celebrating victory by jumping into the stands... and my arms.

The chipped tooth freakout wasn't enough to do it the other week, but Jake Gyllenhaal has just pissed away any respect I had for him in a current Details interview by claiming that the Jack Twist character is straight.

Yeah, just like lots of straight guys who fall in love with another man, conduct a two-decade illicit affair, and while away the time in between meetings with male prostitutes in Mexico.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'm left wondering exactly what Jake's litmus test for being gay is, and if any fictional characters outside Gordon Merrick novels have ever met it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'm guessing "Not played by me" is a big criteria.

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

Why am I up? Why am I reading stuff like this?

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

I'm guessing "Not played by me" is a big criteria.

But he was just playing the bi card...strange man.

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

Do I look like Beyonce? I uploaded four pictures into this face recognition software (stolen from Victor), and Beyonce was #1 once, and in the top 4 the other three times. Also appearing often was Janet Jackson and Charlize Theron. It's pretty cool -- it obviously knows I'm black...inasmuch as "know" applies, and blonde. Most of my matches were one or the other.

Thanks, ita.
