Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Art Crawl!!!

It's 36 degrees here!

No wonder it felt warm out!

Also, ita's third link is not news.

Ann, that's a ferret.

West Virginia, as Virginia still thinks there is a Santa Clause.

No, if you live in Virginia, you have to give up the Sanity Clause.

Why did I listen to voicemail? Why did this person have to use the phrase "reinvent the wheel"? You're asking me to do your job for you! There is no fucking wheel!

I need to go ask my managers how they would like me to tell this woman to fuck off and die.

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

ita's third link is not news.

No, but it does bear noting. Fairly often.

I had cancelled the biofeedback appointment when the lady called with the no-coverage news. I managed to track her down again with my benefits coverage in front of me and tell her it was covered and for her to reinstate it. She waffled a bit, but now she believes me and is going to bat against the insurance company.

Weird that they told her it wasn't covered. As noted upthread, they're good insurance, and haven't given much trouble at all, considering.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

No, if you live in Virginia, you have to give up the Sanity Clause.

C'mon, everyone knows there's no such thing as Sanity Clause.

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

C'mon, everyone knows there's no such thing as Sanity Clause.

That's because the Sanity Clause got kidnapped and locked up real tight. I think the key was also thrown away, as well as the lights turned off.

Isn't it great?! I'm wearing my Santa hat, and it's almost too warm to keep it on (although I must, because I now have severe hat hair underneath it). The office is still a bit cool, though, so I'm still not completely thawed out--I think I've been cold since the beginning of December.

You Santa Hat people are WEIRD.

As I've been told a few times already today, "it's festive."

Speaking of warmer weather, if anyone is walking around downtown Chicago today, watch out for falling ice--two people have already been hurt on Michigan Avenue today.
