Are they correcting you or confirming?

Hmm... how to type tone of voice...

Sometimes they're confirming, but what is annoying is when they're being snooty and correcting.

But he can't sew! I guess he could be a calming influence, though.

Last week, Big Boss announced that our new company has a new compulsory lunch policy. And I'm still all, "What do you mean I have to take at least a 30 minute lunch? You mean I have to get it authorized before I can work through lunch? Are they insane? Are they bored and insane? Do I look like I have time for one more bullshit step to complete in the course of my day?"

I'm such a punk. I mean, it's lunch. Last I checked, lunch good.

I think I want a blody mary. Craving the spicy saltiness, mmm. Also, I'm attending an honest-to-god toga party tomorrow. Its an ironic toga party, but still.

I've been watching Project Catwalk, which I presume is the British version of Project Runway, and I'm so very very hooked.

Sumi, I think that while we love emmett, his technical abilities aren't as strong, and his strength is menswear. she didn't have time for someone who wasn't confident and decisive. you know?

That sounds messy and complicated and really the kind of thing your mom should have just thought about and never actually said

That would be our mother in a nutshell. The hilarious part of it all was, the name failed the Julia Goulia test. Even if it had been the Best Name Evar, all pristine and lacking associations, it still wouldn't have been a worthwhile name. Get with the program, mom!

I used to joke with the Starbucks people about how their biggest size was Italian for "ginormous." That was before the introduction of "venti." Since I can't think of a single reason for Starbucks to sell the Super Big Gulp, I reverted to small/medium/large, or in a pinch the actual number of fluid ounces in each size.

(I never had anybody get snotty with me about not speaking Starbucksese, but I have had lost-in-translation moments, when nobody explains what a "misto" is. I expect it's gotten worse, with everybody from Dunkies to ABP selling variations on the coffee slushie in summer, and all names Frappa-cappa-whatsis-occhachino. Starbucks got hoisted on its own in-lingo petard, there.)

Don’t you know the Republicans promised to shrink big government? Just small enough so that it can fit in your bedroom.

Actually, just small enough to fit in your vagina.

But, Diana isn't very good -- and she can be very annoying.

U.S. OUT OF MY UTERUS!!

Actually, just small enough to fit in your vagina.

NOTHING should go in our unmarried vaginas!

You hussy.
