Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Green Revolution, baby.
Yay! I learned something new....

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
There's no vendors I know about, no.
I'm so overwhelmed trying to plan the book release signing/reading thing at Vroman's, I can't even think about asking another human for another favor.

It's not a favor. The bookseller would be making money.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
And I guess they also must just be thinking it's not wrong to do. It's against the rules but not wrong.
Like counting cards in a casino!

Exactly. That would be really easy for someone with that ability to rationalize. Especially if they thought that everybody they were competing against was also counting cards.

Here's the difference, though, at least to me -- you're playing against the casino (which makes the rules against counting). You're not racing against the cycling federation (which makes the rules against doping).

Really? Craxier than the "His wife? A horse." guy? Why yes, I was amusing myself with F_W wiki last night, why?
