Ever done that - read a writer, loved them, then read one too many things by them and went "meh"?

Oh yes. There are a few writers I think I've just overdosed on, at least temporarily. And there are some where I still enjoy their older work but there's a cutoff point I don't go beyond. I pretty much stick to Sheckley's stuff from the 60s and 70s for that reason.

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

Damnit. Cute boy is very happily in a relationship, but insists on meeting up for dinner, even though not wanting it to be a date.

How come?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Because you're awesome. And maybe he has a cute friend.

I have successfully de-crankified myself, finally. I came home from work and did NOT sit down on my ass -- I put my new bed stuff in the laundry! All new fresh and clean stuff to sleep on tonight! Plus, guacamole as (part of) dinner.

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

How come?

Um, because even though he is in a relationship, he finds you attractive and so he wants to spend more time with you. But since he's in a relationship, he has to make sure you know it's not a date, so he can tell himself he's a good boyfriend, he's not going on a date with you, after all, he's just meeting a friend for dinner. He could even tell his girlfriend if he wanted to, that he's meeting a friend for dinner, because see it's not a date. And hell, he can even flirt a bit, since you know already that it's not a date. And that way, he can drive both you and the girlfriend just a bit crazy, all the while telling himself that he's not the kind of guy who'd ever go out on his girlfriend.

Or, you know, I am totally wrongheaded and still perhaps a wee bit bitter about the whole boyfriend-not-dating-my-friend-until-he-left-me-for-her thing.

Now tagless for your comfort.

How much do you usually tip a hair stylist?

I tend to tip around 15%--but I also tip the shampooer a few bucks if some poor, lowly person who's just waiting to get a chair of her own as a stylist washes. And if I love the cut, I'll tip 20%

I'm within the norm, it seems.

I tip about 20%, depending on how rounding makes sense.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

It's a righteous bitter, if you are...

How much do you usually tip a hair stylist?
$10. It's a little more than 20%, but I like her a lot and she listens. I pay extra for actually listening.
