Gud funny.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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
I speak Scientistese, you want I should call them up and explain some things?

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
There.are.carollers.
Before noon? With no liquor?
Gud is cracking me up.

Allyson, these are drunk, singing scientists. You know how dangerous that is. Hell, there are even some engineers in the mix. Thank god the drinks are in the computer room, or they'd be setting fire to something.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Top conservative news site says soy products make you gay
This isn't just some goofy fringe news site. It's WorldNetDaily (which we affectionately refer to as WingNutDaily), a site that all the right-wing pundits use as a source for their daily vitriol. Here's an excerpt:
There's a slow poison out there that's severely damaging our children and threatening to tear apart our culture....
The dangerous food I'm speaking of is soy. Soybean products are feminizing, and they're all over the place....
Unfortunately, when you eat or drink a lot of soy stuff, you're also getting substantial quantities of estrogens.
Estrogens are female hormones. If you're a woman, you're flooding your system with a substance it can't handle in surplus. If you're a man, you're suppressing your masculinity and stimulating your "female side," physically and mentally....
Soy is feminizing, and commonly leads to a decrease in the size of the penis, sexual confusion and homosexuality. That's why most of the medical (not socio-spiritual) blame for today's rise in homosexuality must fall upon the rise in soy formula and other soy products.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Pbbbt to all of you Scrooges. I LIKE carollers. I even like being a caroller. I love singing but I am really not any good, so carolling in groups is one of the only places I can rock out with abandon.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
One day, I want to join one of Dickensonian caroling groups that wander the malls.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Those carolers are likely being paid, you realize? I've been doing it since I was 15. Malls are usually better than Christmas parties. It's hard to sing over drunk people.
One year, we were caroling in the French Quarter on Christmas Day, and this woman came up with tears in her eyes to tell us how wonderful we were for doing this out of the goodness of our hearts. I don't remember if we shattered her faith in humanity or not.

I'm tempted to follow in their wake and hand them implements of destruction--matches, fire extinguishes, whipped cream and the like.
