Susan W. in Great Write, on the effects of enforced bedrest due to late pregnancy on her get-up-and-go:
Basically, I've just turned into a remarkably lazy woman--it's like I quit being driven cold turkey.
Tell me more good stuff about me.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I went through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to get out from the rain.
Actually...the horse was named "Irwin", but he would bite
And kick when I called him that and I didn't want to
Be bitten and kicked. But one day I was really thirsty
And there wasn't any frickin' rain so I
Killed Irwin and drank his blood and made horse-meat steaks.
Or something.

Thomash:
As I understand it, there is supposedly a Springfield in every state.
Can anyone confirm that?
DX:
Nope. No Springfield in Rhode Island.
(Unless I've been pronouncing Usquepaug wrong...)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Matt the Bruins fan, explaining about board in-speak "Bob Likes Carrots":
Right, it has applications other than spousal. For example, [Rant-inducing co-worker's daughter] likes carrots, because she cannot say two sentences in a conversation that's not strictly about work details without relating whatever the subject is back to her daughter.
I'm tempted to scour the news for articles about bestiality convictions to spark a conversation and see just how pronounced this effect is.

What is even happening?
Hec: What do we call Ohio cities with unfortunate germanic tendencies?
Teppy: Der Zinzinnati, baby. We gots the best of the wurst.

Beth B in Minearverse:
I saw Waterworld in a theater where the popcorn machine caught on fire. Amazingly - most of the people went back in to see the end.

Allyson:
How does something like Glitter happen? I mean, hundreds and hundreds of people had to agree with each other to make it happen, right? Someone had to pony up money, write a script, hire a director, find actors, and fluff Mariah. No one, not one little voice said, "this blows?"
Matt the Bruins fan:
I think she temporarily shorted out their brains by singing a note that only dogs on speed could hear, and everyone just nodded blankly and went along with it.

Wonderfalls up against the cast of CSI appearing on American Idol and then getting fired by Donald Trump would be better than Friday nights.
