I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

WooHooo! We just declared war on Korea!

Which one?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My little coworker just got her first Nigerian scam email. She was all flummoxed and brought it over to me. Aw, cute!

I wish I had a paczki or a crepe or a king cake or anything else delicious. I did have a delicious pecan praline cookie situation this morning, but that was hours ago.

Saw a report that in the UK more than 500,000 pounds had been scammed out of people by the Nigerian email last year. So much stupidity!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had a PB&J. One serving of that peanut butter gives me 25% of my RDA of fat. That's some sandwich.

Recently some folks decided to mess with some scammers - they wrote the scammers saying they were producing videos for some artistic reason or other, and that they'd send money to the scammers if the scammers sent them a video of the scammers reenacting the Monty Python "Dead Parrot" sketch.

Haven't seen the video as I'm at work....

But it's free money! And so easy! AND you get to help a nice widow/child of a revolutionary hero/deserving upstanding person.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I bought some Hollywood Diet Cookies while I was impulse shopping yesterday (looking for allergy meds, so my resistance was way low and the thought of being on a cookie diet was so very appealing). Each cookie is supposedly like eating a whole meal. They are the only sweets I have around right now and I had an actual meal for lunch, so I probably shouldn't have meal replacing cookie for dessert.

Vanilla flavored Benadryl strip is kind of like dessert. That'll do.

I just made my first official step to applying to the MLS program--I faxed Marquette a request for my transcript to be sent to Champaign. Eeep!

Now to start filling out the application tonight, after I update my resume (I have to include that with the application).

Couple question: How much revealing do you expect from your SO? If their close friend tells them a secret, are you surprised if you don't hear it?

Conversely, when you say something offhand to one bit of a dyad, are you surprised when the other bit knows? If you frame it as a secret, is it with the understanding that, okay, the SO will hear too?
