"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Here's a question. The application I'm filling out asks me to fill something out if I've "graduated from college within the past 7 years and have less than 3 years of teaching experience." I graduated with my BA more than 7 years ago, but I have gotten a degree (or two) within that time frame and have been teaching for less than three years. Hmm. I might go ahead and fill it out (better safe than sorry) but do I include courses taken as an undergraduate (i.e., older than 7 years) or not?

My public defender friend is very explicit as to what "nice" is defined at for the reason illustrated above. Of course, a lot of the time, her clients are in jumpsuits, so.

Mel's a choob, eh?

Not nearly as much of a choob as Bill O'Reilly or Geraldo Rivera.

Time for me to write a bunch more personal yet insightful and revealing statements about my teaching style and educational philosophy which will demonstrate my true aptitude for teaching in general and math teaching in particular and which will delight and enchant the reader, while not being so specific or personal as to turn off ANY prospective employer.

It's not that I like interviews, but this whole thing is easier when I can tell if they'll get Buffy references or not.

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

GERALDO RIVERA?

No inner dialogue. This is my new way to explain dumbasses.

Clothing issues: the defendent was wearing a white bubble skirt that barely covered her ass, one of those shrunken-belly baring one button jackets in blue seersucker over a black bra and white 4 inch stiletto slingbacks.

Are you ready to be strong?

Hey, y'all? I know I barely ever come here anymore except to ask VERY POINTED QUESTIONS, but if you can forgive me (and understand that I've moved three times since spring and have been going insane.

SO HERE IS MY POINTED QUESTION. My husband and his friend are writing a romantic comedy. As you might expect of a romantic comedy written by two men, the first draft was heavy on the comedy, light on the romance. So tonight I'm supposed to sit down with Saget and show him scenes from TV shows and movies that women find romantic. I never remember what episodes things happened in on Buffy, but, for instance, where do Oz and Willow have the monkeypants conversation? And what other scenes have you found super-romantic on Buffy, between any characters? Which episodes had the highest Buffy/Angel schmoop quotient? Etc. And what scenes in movies have just killed you with the romanticalness? (You can answer if you are a boy, too, you know.)

I THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP AND UNDERSTANDING.

Well, I just saw the first Yang/ Burke kiss on GA, and that was HOT. I think it is the hands. Anyway, for me it's the intimate cuddly. Just overwhelming niceness. Peanut butter and chocolate on that Angel time rewound ep gets it for the same reason.

Sorry. I knew that, no matter how many times I typed it wrong (wrong looks...well, wrong.) Blame it on finger memory.

eta: sorry I exploded Jilli and no comment on stupid prosecutors? Goodness.

eeta: I hit the wrong button. And defendent is worse than defendant's sartorial choices? Sheesh@
