You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This is really stupid, but now I'd like to get DNA information on all the people who apparently look just like me. Is it just random, or is there some combination in common, or what?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Speaking as a Godless Atheist, I find the term "bright" to be very cloying.

I think I'll watch The Tick vs. The Proto Clown now.

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

If there's a car outside whose driver is leaning on the horn, do you have to give them a heads up or a chance to stop being fucking annoying before you egg them?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

You have eggs?

Okay, not the pertinent question.

Ten seconds head start. Five if it's a loud horn.

I'll join with the Toms in saying "bright" is just not the label I'd pick for myself, at least in that use.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Just egg them. Videotape it for us.

Calling someone a "bright" sounds condescending. It sounds like a euphemism, like "special". Also? Not a noun.

I believe I may have packed my good mood away with my winter clothes.

Bright makes me think of Jenny McCarthy and her person-labelling.

I do indeed have eggs, and since I'm not going to eat them, I thought I might as well put them to public good. Since I had that thought, however, the noise stopped.

Fear me, for I am powerful. And that's before the swab even comes out.

This is just creepy. The page itself has nothing more risqué than lingerie, but the site has nekkid wimmens on it.

Women, would you want that done with your face? Men...is this something you'd do with a woman you could see naked anyway?

That's super creepy. Almost as creepy as the thing I saw on YouTube, maybe, of someone photoshopping a picture of a fat woman into a skinny one.

Cuteness-inspired ethical dilemma.

They're on holiday. Cameras should leave them alone. But I don't think there are many celeb pictures cuter than ones with Violet in them...but ones with Violet and Matt's kid? TOTALLY.

Hmm. My sister once said she didn't like the cliquey vibe that Ocean's 11 and its successors gave off. But I'm realising that I do, and quite pointedly. Because it makes them seem human, kinda like the idea of Matt and Ben going on holiday together. George and Brad and Matt goofing around is like a hotter version of guys I know. J Lo and Beyonce and Britney and that shit? I have no idea. They're not real. They don't translate.

Which to have for dinner--a mini bagel, or some of the no-sugar added pound cake with tea?

I think the pound cake will win.
