BHP: I hate all bras. They all fall apart too quickly.
Except for the gungy slightly-too-small overwashed-gray bra that lurks in the back left of your underwear drawer. That one is immortal.
The perky pink ones? Forget it. Shredded into confetti.

DavidS: So what. You're now a moon in an imaginary future that's on TV.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Steph L: My left underwire broke and is currently jabbing straight into my boob, possibly going for the heart.

Steph L.: does anyone know where I can find my needles and thread?
Betsy Hanes Perry: Walk barefoot across the carpet. You should find several pointy things. Pick up the one that drew blood and see if it has an eye in one end. Then unravel some thread from the hem of a blouse.
