I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I've heard that certain types of deep-tissue massage and laser treatments will get rid of it temporarily, by loosening the fibers holding it into that puckered shape, but nothing gets rid of it permanently.

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

There's no evidence that anything gets rid of it.

Huh. Interesting.

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

Homer gets around.

At a blog I read, someone wondered what Homer was planning on doing with that donut. Perhaps some sort of ring-toss?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I've heard some similar urban legends.

There's a similar variation on that legend in HIGH FIDELITY (the book, though they did film it for the movies and it's a deleted scene) where a PO'd wife is trying to sell her husbands record collection at a ridiculously low price (including a copy of the Beatles "Butcher Cover" LP). If I remember correctly, the main character turns her down (out of record-collector empathy), but assures her she won't have a problem finding someone who will buy it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

If I remember correctly, the main character turns her down (out of record-collector empathy), but assures her she won't have a problem finding someone who will buy it.

That's exactly what happens.

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

Oh, I wasn't clear earlier. I was talking about replying to fan mail.

I did reply to the asshole, with links from 2004 that prove she's making shit up.

I'm still so angry I could piss nails.
