Ginger, I'm sorry about the mummy hand. That sounds so uncomfortable.
Mal: Well, you were right about this being a bad idea. Zoe: Thanks for sayin', sir.

Sorry to hear that, Aims. It sounds like somebody else fucked up in the hiring, and Joe gets to burn for it.

ION, can I say how much I loathe loathe loathe those stupid stick-figure family stickers with the names that people put on the back of their SUVs?
'Cuz guess what? Now I know the names, number and gender of all of your children. And many times, I also know your names and the name of your cat and/or dog. And I can probably find where you live from your license plate number.

I thought the same thing the first time I saw one of those, Sean.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Yeah, Sean, now ya got me all creeped out.
Ugh, Laga. I wish peace for your family.

Same here. I still can't believe that those things have caught on.

Because books.
It's like the first law of parenting now. You don't put your kid's name on his lunch box or backpack. You *don't* want strangers knowing his name.
People are stupid.

Those things are like begging someone to snatch your kids.
I have occasionally thought about leaving a note on cars like that, but the parents would probably just get angry/sick the police on me, so I've never done it.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Once I saw that someone had drawn an extra stick figure in the dirt at the end and captioned it "Paco". Now I want to add Paco to every minivan I see so he'll be the Kilroy of "wash me" art.
My Mom seems to be taking her "birthday present" very well. She says this only confirms that we were right about Asshat and maybe this will help my sister see that he is Not a Good Person.

None of the ones I've seen around here have the names. What I wonder is what the kids who show up after you put up the stick figures think--assuming, of course, you keep the car long enough for the new kid to count the stick figures and realize he's not there.
