A faculty member said, out loud, to my colleague recently, "I am a Looniversity faculty member and I am too highly paid to waste my time with X." X being putting links to articles in her course website.

It's lucky I wasn't on the receiving end of that remark, because I might have replied, "Do you wipe your own ass?"

Seriously, have people never heard of MANNERS?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

High pay as an excuse not to do something is a new one. Generally I think "yes, they pay me enough to put up with this shit."

Relatedly, what gap is this photo referring to? [link]

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

To be fair, I have given those instructions to more than one person.

But hopefully not at work, right?

No offense, but I'm kind of glad I was late enough to work today that you were off the road before I got to my bus stop.

Tremble before my powers of destruction!

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

Did someone post the link to paperdolls's letter to Andrew Sullivan? Here it is.

Well, that and the food colouring, according to that recipe.

Also, I apologize for the level of self-involvement I've been displaying for the past like, YEAR.

I've been remiss in...everything.

Anniversary and a house for Robin! Yay!

Surgery for Mac! Boo! (but yay for him getting better and solving medical issue).

Anniversary for Miracleborns! Yay!

Migraines for ita. Boo!

And lots of other things I haven't properly celebrated or soothed or supported because my head is up my ass.
