Jesse, if you really loved me, you'd bankroll my modest lifestyle.
I keep saying that to other people, and it hasn't worked for me yet! You're barking up the wrong tree, my friend. I'm sure there are people way richer than me way closer to you.
Mal: We're still flying. Simon: That's not much. Mal: It's enough.

Don't most people who get their lifestyles bankrolled for them have to opt for the immodest variety?

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

Allyson, can you put a word in for me with Tim? I won't even need a pony.

Hey, Daisy Jane!
Yeah, that guy's a bozo. I just called my regular PCP to ask that they not refer me to him in the future. I know I live in Texas, but this is Austin, dammit. I left Alabama to get away from guys like that.

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
You've got enough gas to get home?
I've got enough to get to the gas station. All good.
Yay, note tackling!
I was just telling a friend that my self esteem has not improved despite the accomplishment. The mind is a goopy mess.
Allyson, can you put a word in for me with Tim?
I think he loves you more than me already. You got a moon, I got my face ripped off. Who do you really think holds more influence?

Your self-esteem must be Republican, and therefore not reality based.

I've been trying to get her to do this for ages. I even throw in washing her dishes and cleaning, but nooooo.....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Um... huh?
In an interview with the editorial board of the Bucks County Courier Times, embattled Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum has equated the war in Iraq with J.R.R. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings." According to the paper, Santorum said that the United States has avoided terrorist attacks at home over the past five years because the "Eye of Mordor" has been focused on Iraq instead.
"As the hobbits are going up Mount Doom, the Eye of Mordor is being drawn somewhere else," Santorum said. "It's being drawn to Iraq and it's not being drawn to the U.S. You know what? I want to keep it on Iraq. I don't want the Eye to come back here to the United States."
And no, this is not from The Onion.

I don't know whether to die laughing or just die. Seriously, Ricky? You want us to picture America as Frodo and Sam? Really?

Article that argues the the early deployment of the carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower does not mean we're gonna attack Iran sometime towards the end of October. I think the author makes a fairly-convincing argument, but not 100% so.
