Hee. I won't. I promise.
How are you feeling, Tom Scola?
Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
My sympathies, flea (also to your boss and the rest of the department).

FWIW, I think your nose is very pretty -- it's not standard prettiness, which is rather a narrow range for women's looks presently, but it's attractive and fits your face, you know?
I was gonna say, "Noooooooooooo!" But Theo said it better.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
How are you feeling, Tom Scola?
I was sick all weekend, and I woke up this morning and I felt great. Just in time to come into a shitstorm at work.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Re: Spousal friends. I could never imagine doing that, either.
Same here. I can see setting a curfew time in advance if there's a good reason. Such as, "Honey, your friends can be kind of loud, and I have a job interview in the morning. Could you wrap things up by 11?" Negotiating a curfew in advance when you can't stand to be in the house with one of the spouse's friends, also legit because it's both spouses' home.
But to call and suddenly announce that the party ends in 15 minutes would require a major unexpected emergency. Generally of the type that ends, "Meet me at the hospital."

E-mail appears to be down, so there's not much for me to do at work except sit here and look pretty until it comes back.

I'd be very sad if Aimee got a face reduction!
Me too! OMG don't touch your nose, Aimee! It's what gives you such a gorgeous profile.

There will be no nose job for Aimee. I think it would have similar ramifications to Jennifer Grey's nose job where people just kind of looked at her and then mocked her. Bad enough my life falls in to pre- and post-baby. To have to add in nose job too?
"Well, we moved back to Michigan post-baby, but pre-nose job."

re: Spousal friends
Yeah, Aimee has been very gracious about my having gaming friends over until Fuck You O'Clock. I believe there was one time when we went extraordinarily long and Aimee came out of the bedroom, pulled me aside and said "It is 4 a.m.. When are you stopping?" But, it was 4 a.m. and she didn't say "Get them the fuck out of here NOW!" though the implication was clear.
The reason I think you don't do that shit to your spouse is: How embarrassing for the spouse! "This is not your home, Spouse, you are a guest here and you have violated My Rules!" Way to publicly humiliate your spouse/SO/whatever. May as well just chain 'em to a wall and mock their looks.
Had I been the guy with the poker game, I would have been totally shamed. "Sorry guys, the wife says you gotta go." It'd be like still living with your Mommy. Even if they don't do it to your face, you know much mockage will be occurring shortly.
In my opinion, that wife is a total SuckBitch.
