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

ita, is it just me, or does B look like he's about to steal my purse?

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

Well, "Don't put pizza in the composter" is a fairly reasonable request, really.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

Okay, now I'm obsessing over what I may have put in the compost bin in the past. But in SF I think we're supposed to put any kind of food, or any paper or cardboard that has touched food.

I'm somewhat stunned at the level of anti-vegan vitriol in the comments there.

Vegans are sanctimonious anorexics and you know it’s true.

Thank GOD someone finally put a self-righteous vegan in her (I’m assuming) place!

Veganism is a choice, people. You live in the real world where normal people eat meat. Your interests will always come second, deal with it.

i too get pissed off at the vegans who assume that 1. everyone who eats meat is an evil person and 2. that somehow because they have chosen to live a lifestlye that is hard to stick with, somehow they are better than the rest of us, and 3. that we must bend over backwards to accomidate their trouble making ways.

you have your beleifs, fine, and you dont want the rest of the world to cram their views down your anti-meat throat, so stop doing it to us! we dont care if all you are interested in is estrogen-boosting soy, which i think makes most of them so damn grumpy. so just stfu.

all the vegans i know are fat. candy bars arent vegetables, you know.

I have to say, I can't say I've ever encountered one of these "forcing the world to accomodate their choices" vegans.

Hey that's from Halifax! And if it's city composting, any foodstuffs are game because it's picked up every second week. I think the objection is to it being donair pizza, which can manage to stink up a room for days with it's vile smell.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

paperdol, I am glad you are here, because I finally got the money/time to get and read your book, and it was so good! It is not only witty and interestingly written enough to, IMO, appeal to anyone, not just the on-line Buffy fans, some of the notes you hit resonated with me enough to bring tears to my eyes.

Happy anniversary Susan, and happy non-connubial bliss to Teppy and the boy! And happy happies to anyone else that I missed.

There's city composting? Neat. Only kind I've ever seen is kitchen/backyard composting, where any sort of animal products (except eggshells) will stink up the whole house for days.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I was watching some of the Dirty Jobs marathon yesterday, and at least one town (I think it might have been Tulsa) composts its roadkill and uses it for mulch.
