I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

it's the fact that he stopped doing my hair so he could arrange a buy.

That is quite rude. And stupid.

If the trees start moving closer, avoid the guy named Macduff. It will only end badly for you.

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

These people would seem to be either very stupid or deliberately abusive.

My guess is that they are the sort to completely ignore all facts that contradict their world view.

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

IME, people on any kind of (voluntarily) extremely restrictive diet tend to be either super-informed about nutrition, or abysmally ignorant. These two would seem to be the latter.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

For people who were thinking of getting flowers for mother's day, I was just forwarded a link to this: [link] which makes a donation to various charities when you buy flowers. I bought the one that gives to Heifer.

The status is NOT quo.

BWAH! Since I started teaching good ol' Mackers this week, I'm finding this allusion especially amusing.
