Don't make me come over there and make you dinner. You need to eat real food, young lady.
I'm getting all the food groups! Avocado is the perfect food! Anyway, look how well your daughter is doing.
Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
you're close enough that I can make good on my threat.
I am in Simi, you know.
Plus, I ate well. One and a half roast beef sandwiches. Well, and two cans of coke, a mini-brownie and a mini-lemon square. But it's the lack of a nap that's killing me. The pattern on the carpet is trying to attack me.

OH! I was in a meeting today where someone seriously said that companies don't market directly to kids, and especially not poor kids. WTFF? Thank god I have an awesome minion (that's not the right word, even though she does technically report to me), because I had to call her IMMEDIATELY after to scream.

Why was there not a deafening FOOOM as the heads of everyone within earshot exploded?

-t, similar, but my pillow was black and white. And it screamed.
I had it in my office and once in a while someone would lean back against it and hear a muffled scream from behind them. One person, knowing this, would wiggle around to try to make it scream ... usually without success.

I DON'T KNOW! I was like, Bwuh?? But quietly, as not only was I the New Kid, I was the most junior person organizationally.

Maybe you missed a word? Like, [Acid Reflux Treatment] companies don't market directly to kids, or [Livestock Transport] companies don't market directly to kids.
Because otherwise that's some crazy shit, yo.

I swear to god he was talking generally. He was like, "they don't have money!" Um... yeah, but have you ever been in the grocery store?
The same person did tell me yesterday that he doesn't have a tv at home, so. But still!!

Or it's one of those lies company employees tell themselves.

I was supposed to go visit my family this weekend, but then I found out the neighborhood welcome party is Saturday night, and George Takei is going to be the grand master of the Pride Parade on Sunday, and...
Right. Two weekends in a row I'm weaseling out of going home. I'm sure that will go over well.
