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 just wanted my people taken care of. But they're already languishing.

Stupid question: If I'm in the middle of doing something, is it "in process" or "in progress"? Neither sounds right.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Update on the coyote situation: Coyote that walked into sandwich shop moved to suburbs
Maybe he'll like the northwest suburbs better.
The coyote that walked into a downtown Chicago submarine shop Tuesday afternoon was to be taken today to the Flint Creek Wildlife Rehabilitation refuge in Barrington, where he may be released later in the day.
Officials were fairly confident he won't return downtown, but no one can be really sure.
...
This morning, employees of the Quiznos visited the coyote, bringing him a prime rib sandwich on garlic bread. But Animal Care and Control veterinarians rejected the offering.
"I understand," Bina Patel, manager of the sandwich shop, said today. "There are no prime ribs out in the wild."
Adrian weighs about 30 pounds and is believed to be about a year old. Kent said he may recently have become separated from his mother – hence, his urge to roam.
About 10 to 15 coyotes are captured every year in the city, she said.
"It was nice having him as a guest," Patel said. "He just decided to walk in. He hung out in the refrigerator. We had two regular customers who just kept on eating."
The Quiznos was shut down after the incident and sanitized per Health Department instructions. It reopened as normal this morning.
The store donated $1,000 to Animal Care and Control for taking good care of Adrian.

"There are no prime ribs out in the wild."
There were no forks in medieval times, therefore there are no forks at Medieval Times.
