Yes. The self-important kind.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

She is deffinately a twit.

On the other hand, I like to express myself by taking two and a half hour lunches every day. My generation was taught that its part of who we are to go to the gym, have a nice salad with some friends, and maybe look at some shoes. t /Carrie Bradshaw

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Happy anniversary to MM and The Empress! Yes, today is also our elopmaversary.

Our real estate agent gave us a house-warming present--a cool fountain! She is an avid gardener, and she and her husband, who designs and builds sets for commercials, have an amazing mid-century retro house. She had heard what we liked about her yard when we were over, and they bought us a fountain and plants to plant around it. So thoughtful. And it will go far to help us avoid the fact that the entire yard is cemented over and that someday we have to sledgehammer it up.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

That woman is a twit.

However, I still get confused by the no t-shirt rule. Does this mean one can only wear button downs, or are "dressy" t-shirts OK?

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

True. And if someone says something negative about your lunches, they are saying something negative about you.

Happy anniversaries!!

I've pet a shark.

That's all I have.

I caught a shark when I was fishing off Bar Harbor back in high school. It was a little-bitty guy (about 18 inches long) but reeling in the line expecting to see a cod or mackeral and then seeing this head with all these teeth coming out of the water was a biiiig surprise!

So if you didn't care for your lunch, does that make you self-loathing?

Only if your lunch was 2 1/2 hours. Because if you have that much time and still fail to find a good lunch....
