I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Someone convince me that I want sugarless gum or tea rather than chocolate.

Compassionately intolerant

I just downed a nice cup of green tea that gave me an even better bump than chocolate would have...plus, extra added lack of remorse...go tea, choose tea!

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

I just went and ate Taco Bell.

I have been junk food free (with two exceptions, neither of them sugar) for the past five weeks and I just made a run for the border with a pregnant co-worker.

The BABY wanted it!

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Balancing human life against animal is a personal task. But she needs to use a lot more words to make this not also condone, say, lynching in the South. I mean, after all--wasn't there a time when it wasn't questioned? I wonder (though not enough to watch The View) what the rest of her words actually were.

Word. But I already had this discussion.

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

Tea is lovely. Tea with chocolate is lovelier, but you didn't ask.

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

Hey, women in the middle east are stoned and raped to death in front of cheering crowds, but that's just part of the culture.

I have so much rage to give lately. If I could afford to leave everything here and move home, hiding under the bed in my parents' spare room, I'd be on a plane right about.....now.

Paging shrift! Grab the popcorn, MCR fandom is going to explode!

Hee! I saw that last night, Jilli, and I haven't stopped laughing my ass off yet. It's good abdominal exercise, I guess!

I didn't. I have mint tea, which, like all tea, smells better than it tastes.

Mint tea? Now a probable migraine trigger. Check in with me in a few years. I'll be subsisting on nothing but Smart Water and IVs.

I'm drinking herbal tea to avoid snacking, listening to my iPod on shuffle, and actually working all afternoon. I'm a virtuous disturbance in the Force.
