I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm so pissed I missed half of HIMYM, due to the stupid president.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The Rev. Pat Robertson says God has told him that storms and possibly a tsunami will hit America's coastline this year.

Good thing that God is hedging his bets.

Ann, that's a ferret.

And when was the last hurricane season when a storm didn't hit the U.S.?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Some storms will hit the coast? Golly, it's good to have the inside dish. I wonder if God said anything about NC getting hot and humid this August? 'Cause I do like to be prepared.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Actually "the Lord" is just what Pat Robertson likes to call meterorologists. It's like a pet name.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Congratulations, Jesse!

Thanks! Actual Graduation is tomorrow. I'm bizarrely anxious right now. And of course the grade webpage is still down from the "one hour of downtime at 7 am." Not that I'm worried about my grades, but obsessively clicking there is something to do!

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

That joke was just nast. I can't imagine why they gave it so much build-up.

Because it was nast. The guy who ended up telling it to me stressed he didn't think it was funny. He much preferred the one with the herpes and the frog.

Well, that was nice. The lady at Equifax pointed out a couple of accounts I didn't know about, opened in January along with the fraudulent accounts I knew about already. Hooray for more calls to make. @@

My god, Jesse. And you were alerted to all this by a store clerk? It does make one want to check one's credit report on a semi-regular basis, because who knows if a conscientious and eagle-eyed employee will notice?

I looked at my credit report a month or so ago, otherwise I'd be paranoid. I do need to close some of the accounts on it, though. Way unused.
