Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh hey, I learned something funny at lunch today: My coworker is on the same hockey team as Mike Meyers! Apparently he is prone to not bringing his own water and using up other peoples'.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

When zombie mobs go wrong:

Six friends spruced up in fake blood and tattered clothing were arrested in downtown Minneapolis on suspicion of toting "simulated weapons of mass destruction." Police said the group were allegedly carrying bags with wires sticking out, making it look like a bomb, while meandering and dancing to music as part of a "zombie dance party" Saturday night. "They were arrested for behavior that was suspicious and disturbing," said Lt. Gregory Reinhardt, a police spokesman. Police also said the group was uncooperative and intimidated people with their "ghoulish" makeup.

What is even happening?

I wish I could get my kids to like tacos or spagetti or both. How can kids not like tacos or spagetti?

Chris isn't crazy about the tacos, but he'll eat them. Well, he mostly eats the tomatoes, the tortillas (the soft ones) and cheese. He's not a meat fan, and I think he thinks the lettuce is superfluous.

We live on frigging spaghetti, but Julia's the only one who wants sauce on it. The boys both want it with butter and cheese. What I pass off to them as butter and cheese is usually spaghetti, with a little sauce mixed in (while still in the pot) to prevent sticking, and cheese. They're catching onto my trick, though.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I still laugh that Gawker "spiked" all Myers sightings with a hockey stick...until the day the editors saw him with a hockey stick.

Yeah, that was funny. But don't you mean "spindled"??

Yeah, that's weird. Anyone who doesn't like tacos in some variation is just not right to me anyway.

My god, that's awesome.

The BF and I have taken to barking out "Swengin" Wu-style at each other at odd moments. We both find this way more amusing than it has any right to be.

I love this.

Erika: see you in the funny pictures! Or the Movies thread, as need be.

Do they dislike tomatoes? I remember eating buttered noodles as spaghetti for a while. And picking the tomato-bits out of tacos.

Tacos seemed like so much work to me as a kid. Plus the hard shell would break while I was biting it and it'd spill its innards all over or else I'd get taco stuff all over my face.

The hard shell always put me right off tacos as a kid. Now burritos, I could get down with.

Matilda Azalea Smay is a beauteous name. And nice initials, too.

Our wings are not tired.

My boys don't like tacos or spaghetti. They eat about 3 things. Very annoying. I suppose I should have been more of a bitch about it when they are younger. They are eating fewer things than they did just a couple years ago. They don't seem to like things that are combined. They will eat cold cuts and they will eat bread, but not a sandwich. Annoying. I don't know how they got so big with their limited food list.
