Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

Personally, I think there's an aesthetic element to it.

I put the whole thing down, as I think there's an aesthetic element to pets not drinking out of the toilet.

Ann, that's a ferret.

3. You can flirt with the opposite sex without someone saying, "Who are you looking at?"

Actually, I can still do that. On the other hand, if I flirted with another man....

7. You can leave the toilet seat permanently up if you're a man, or permanently down if you're a woman.

You can't leave the seat up if there are cats in the house. Because they use the seat as a stepping stone to the counter.

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

Its the math that bugs me. With one man and one woman the thing only needs to be up about 25% of the time.

And it looks nast.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is it wrong that I don't care that my cat loves to drink out of the toilet?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

My parents just close the entire thing. that way, everybody has to do some work.

I find the best way to avoid taking sides is to leave it at a 45-degree angle.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Didya see the the (male) security guard checking out Carter's butt? Ha!

No, as long as it's your toilet.

Or have one of those hole in the floor potties!

And it is! Honestly, I figure he likes the fresh water -- god knows I'm not changing out his water bowl multiple times a day!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Zen, wrong thread, but yes!
