What is even happening?

You weren't kidding about the tugboat, Allyson.

Kat, I'm glad you have Roman and am right there with you on the orchid. I'm not bad at gardening, but have inherited my mother's black thumb, when it comes to even hardy houseplants. Just reading, "orchid," or "African violet," makes me feel like a killer.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Well, I added Kat's quote for clarity, but I did mention the orchid in the first sentence of the original post.

Besides, what are the odds of me considering the purchase of a baby, no matter how big a discount the market was giving?

oooh! thanks for the advice Matt. That will be a weekend project. My cell phone, brand new, is all fritzy which of course pisses me off. stupid cell phone! Must resolve that today.

Babies for $17 would be a total discount. In the short term. the long term expenses are killer.

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

I'm intrigued by the idea of keeping a baby in a tray of pebbles....

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

It's just that my reading comprehension is shit before coffee, Matt.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I've never been able to make an orchid bloom again, but the flower lasts a long time. I just think of them as particularly long-lasting cut flowers. That way I'm more resigned to their inevitable death. They probably would do better for someone less lethal to indoor plants.

Bunny bao may be the cutest most delicious thing ever.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Matt, I read your post twice and thought you were talking about Grace and Noah.

The tray of pebbles is never a good idea with babies, because they put small things in their mouths.

Also, Panama claims to have brewed the world's largest cup of coffee.

I just want to know: WHY ARE THEY KEEPING IT FROM ME?!?!?

Huh. I made a post about bao, and yet it is not here. I wonder if it's in another thread. Gronk.
