Pajamas are perfectly acceptable gift for a (male) platonic friend who has everything, right? I'm not talking sexy pajamas, just some warm soft flannel jammies.
My friend Nathan says it's a weird (loaded) gift.
Zoe: Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity? Wash: You're pretty much down to ritual suicide, lambie-toes.

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

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
My friend Nathan says it's a weird (loaded) gift.
I don't think so.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday brenda!
Am currently fighting off the con crud that G has. Also wondering why my finger hurts when there are no visible injuries.

With or without olive spread?
with. I realized that a muffaletta without the olive salad is just a salami and cheese sandwich. still tasty, but not a muffaletta.

The status is NOT quo.
I don't think comfy pajamas are a weird gift, but I'm not known for my normalcy.
ION, it's a damn good thing that the parents can't hear what I say when I read their emails. YOUR KID IS GETTING A B+! THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO BEAT HER UP ABOUT "BRINGING UP HER GRADE"!
Ahem.

I think I've found the Bitches' mascot! What do y'all think?
If it were a bit more identifiable as a particular creature, I'd be happy, but, yes, damn that's cute.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Jammies are an unloaded gift unless it is already a loaded relationship. And? Jammies are some of the best things ever. Soft and lovely jammies - good.
Construction going on in the apt next door. Or cleanup? Something terribly loud and crashy. It's not pairing well with my headache. Though jammies might pair better than most other things now that I think about it. Thanks, Allyson. Your question might have just improved my afternoon as well.
Go jammies, choose jammies.

We really don't want to do this again do we.
What am I saying, of course we do.
Also, comfy pajamas are the perfect gift for anyone, including blinvisible internet friends.

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.
I'm intimidated by one very large task: book a holiday party for 450 people on a maximum budget of $10000 somewhere in SF, including food & 2 drink tickets. Preferably in Fisherman's Wharf.
Pulling some numbers out of my ass:
Suppose you allow 16 bucks a piece for dinner and drinks.
That leaves you $2,800 rental and decorations, and I guess all other expenses.
You do need advice from someone like Allyson who used to do this sort of thing for a living. But it seems doable, albeit you may need to go the simple hot n hearty route (which given that it is cool weather season coming up should be no hardship for the guests.)

Hooray for jammies with no social stigma!
