I was in the elevator with her after, and I wanted to wish her luck on the strike, but it felt like breaking the fourth wall or something. And that's even without knowing what show she works for.

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
From Simon's link:
Actually, "Miracle Man" is pro-Christian, which is what makes it so subersive.
This gave me a squick.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I'm tempted to comment but I'll await data. The interpretation I'd really like does not fit with Tim's politics. I can't see him doing the equivalent of Woodie Guthrie's old song:
Jesus was a man
Carpenter by hand
With followers both true and brave
He said to the rich "give your money to the poor"
And they laid Jesus Christ in his grave.

It's just a typo. It's not that bad.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I'm not understanding the squick. Which makes me think maybe I don't understand what Tim meant. In summary, I'm just confused.
It's just a typo. It's not that bad.
Hee. I read it first as subversive. Then when I didn't understand, I looked up subersive in the dictionary. That didn't help.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
That's a fun piece, Polter-Cow - thanks.
My perfect cast is still people I've never met.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I didn't know "subersive" was a word. I thought it was a typo, too.
I'm trying not to be squicked, because I'm not even sure why I'm squicked, but I am.

I think the squick was not based on the typo, but on the some possible readings of the statement after correcting for the typo. I doubt that Tim means it in any of those ways, any more than he means the lefty interpretation I playfully suggested.
