I'm sorry. You were going to ask me to choose, right? Did you want to finish?

On a trip of some length it's pretty normal for my kids to take off their shoes and then have sock puppet theater. Usually, one of the sock puppets turns out to be carnivorous and the show ends tragically.

Daniel C. Jensen:
They'll COMM you when you talk about the bar,
They'll COMM you when you talk about your car,
They'll COMM you when your eyes you poke with sticks
They'll COMM you when you eat a wheatabix.
So I would not post here when you're bombed,
'Cause anybody can get COMMed.

Calli: Do roaches freak out cats? My last cat just sort of looked at them like they were a tv show she couldn't be bothered to turn off, and then went back to licking herself.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

The Pogues? We should always talk about the Pogues. Whenever we're not talking about the Pogues, it's probably a mistake.
