You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Here's an assortment of some fairly horrifying (and some NSFW) Valentine's Day presents, courtesy of a guy I know. [link]

I agree with you about The Office, Cindy. I'm really liking Roy. He's not so bad. Not the future Mr. Pam Beesly, but not so bad.

Are electric razors faster than shaving with a blade?

I'm not sure if they're faster, but you can use them in places you can't (or can't easily) use a blade, such as a car. Although it's probably not the best thing to be doing in a public place if you're a commuter (thought potentially entertaining and might get you a seat by yourself).

Sometimes I have trouble dragging my lazy ass out of bed on time, so I'll often end up skipping shaving....

I'm like Gud in that I found the electrics irritated me. My solution to the time-factor problem is to shave in the shower. Of course, I had to practice to get good at shaving blind, essentially.

Now I want to find that whole conversation about shaving from BARCELONA.

Maybe I should come charm you.

Are you threatening me?

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

Isn’t he supposed to be on the wagon? Or did you mean like Mailboxes, etc.?

Package store = liquor store.

I dunno. I don't drink and I go there all the time. I was getting a pack of smokes and a Mexican Coke.

Are you threatening me?

I believe the perception of my charms are incorrect. So you are probably safe.

Package store = liquor store.

that's what I thought. But then, I thought 'well, maybe she was at UPS or something'.

I was getting a pack of smokes and a Mexican Coke.

what's a mexican coke?

What is even happening?

(The Office)

Jesse, I don't know when I've seen a better written (or acted) triangle, never mind a double triangle. I wish The Office writers would hold a Romantic Complications seminar for all the other TV writers, out there. None of the characters are easily demonized. You can feel the pain and the yearning. It's just splendid. I mean, I'm loving both Karen and Roy, even while I'm crossing my fingers that they'll both soon be in for some big big pain. I had to put the Michael scenes in a separate box, so I didn't let it ruin my love for the rest of the episode.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Mexican Coke = made with cane sugar not HFCS.

Coca Cola from Mexico comes in those old school glass bottles and is made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup.

Cindy, you are so right about the seminar!

My favorite little thing in last night's ep was Ryan subtly batting the bouquet out of Kelly's reach!
