I swear I'm not really hear I am working very hard and not here to congratulate Jessica and Fone. Nope. Not here.

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

I'm listening to Sigur Rós in the no doubt futile attempt not to fidget myself to death while I wait to go home.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah. I like it too. I like coercing them along the path until suddenly they realize they self-identify as musicians, and whaddya know, they have the skillz to back it up. I like knowing when to back off and when to push. I like balancing bullying and teasing and working seriously and helping and encouraging. I like it when a totally tough boy all clad in black and chains and swagger suddenly collapses in laughter at making a mistake.
Unfortunately for me, there is no jealous, because the reason we're teaching where we are is because no one else is.
But I do it 'cause I love it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
One of the things the Goldmans may be hoping for is to prevent him from making money off of the death of their son. Stuff like that assy book and special from not too long ago.
That, I totally get.

Is it really supposed to be that bad? Compared to 100+ inches of lake effect snow, for instance? Cause I live in the land of Nor'easter Ground Zero, and this storm is supposed to be heading this way.
Is worried.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Does this sound right to anybody with home owning experience?
Person's house catches on fire. Insurance company says that the last payment was applied to someone else's account so person has not made their insurance payment. WTF!?!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Buh?
Sounds very shady to me -- it's the insurance company's error, so they're the one's liable.

'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"
DJ, it sounds like either it would be a major-lawyer-intensive situation (say, an intermediary insurance agency had mishandled the payment) or the person is making up some reason for not having money after the fire.
Note that my house insurance gets held in escrow by my mortgage company, so it's possible that they could mispay it in some bizarre computing mishap.
