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

At work, there are three of us, and we all need to connect to a client's network in Houston. Don't tell anyone, but we all use the same password. So we all pretty much do (b).

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

What magical property do the French possess that the Americans don't--I'm assuming that Americans would improve their self esteem...

I am guessing that the author is positing that the French aren't as physical fitness oriented as Americans. I have no idea if it's true or not. But I found that sentence confusing too.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Also, if it lets me, I just change it to the same password I had. Which my student knows because she has to log on to the computer too and it take almost as long to get a lon-in here as the students work. I had one student receive her password a week before she graduated!

I thought it was that the French have great self-esteem already.

But they're depressed all the time! All that smoking and surrendering and "hon-hon-hon"ing!

Don't change it until it forces you to, enduring a week's worth of pestering.

I like to use the week's worth of pestering to come up with a new password scheme.

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

I am guessing that the author is positing that the French aren't as physical fitness oriented as Americans.

Yeah, but in my head, Americans aren't really fitness-oriented as people. As a culture it may seem that way, but it doesn't actually percolate down to actual people.

And I can't imagine American self-esteem picking up if everyone got another hour of exercise in a week either.

I do not have the right shoes for this outfit, but dammit, I'm going to go out like this anyway. I'm that sort of a rebel.

Not sure what I was thinking, buying a brown skirt.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

There's also a positive correllation between exercise and warding off depression, according to a recent study.

What magical property do the French possess that the Americans don't--I'm assuming that Americans would improve their self esteem...

I'm guessing it's that they don't think of things like exercise as a moral issue?
