There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I had avoided watching The US Office because the British cersion was too painfully close to reality for me. But I've caught a few episodes and enjoyed them. NBC should run a marathon of this season so I can catch up.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

A friend did try to throw a surprise party for me once, but I unintentionally screwed his plan up enough that he had to tell me what was going on. And then I almost took his head off. Good times.

In college I attended a surprise party for woman friend of a friend. She had been kept totally in the dark, so in she came about an hour and a half after the party started , extremely tipsy, and dragging along a cute boy. She told us all we could stay another half hour, and then we could get out to let her and Jimmy throw a real party.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They've been running a bunch at a time on Thursdays, but showed the finale last night, so I don't know what's going to happen next.

Often in my group, someone not the birthday person sends out the "hey let's go out for x's birthday" email. Not really throwing a party, but as close as we get.

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

Jim Halpert is a better imaginary boyfriend than Lloyd Dobler.

But can he hold a candle (or an AK47) to Martin Blank?

I'm with -t on shanghai as a verb. It's got precious little do with the Chinese, except as the destination of the kidnapping ships. It's not even as if the kidnappees were left there.

Fuck. Just got an eBay dress, tried it on, looked and fit great. Or so I thought. Tore it taking it off. Hulklike, right down the back. I have no idea how I could have lessened the strain on it either. I mean, it went on fine! Physics hates me. I'm going to set up my fan and take a nap.

Yeah, I had no idea.

Jim Halpert is who again?

From the US Office which you refuse to watch.

What is even happening?

But can he hold a candle (or an AK47) to Martin Blank?

I don't know, because I don't know who Martin Blank is.

If you haven't seen Grosse Pointe Blank you need to recuse yourself. Because he just wins. He's Lloyd Dobler, all grown up, and with a gun. Or seven.
