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

Sometimes I love crazy people. Dave Sims showed he went off the rails a while back, but he's currently posting stuff like this on his blog:

A car with two steering wheels, two gas pedals and two brakes drives more efficiently than a car with one steering wheel, one gas pedal and one brake which is why marriage should always be an equal partnership.

I've heard good things about his work up until it all went kerflooey, but I just can't bring myself to read it now.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Hey, LA peeps. I'm going to a birthday party tomorrow night at Ghost Bar (@@) and the invite says to dress Hollywood. What does that mean?

I'm planning on a cute basic black dress with a black and red belt, black patented peep toe pumps and diamond jewelry. Hair will be straightened and big curlered.

Then I thought, what if she doesn't mean glam Hollywood. The show is Mickey Avalon.

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

What IS it with comic book artists?

Insufficient socialisation? Dunno. But they sure do their bit towards being loud and crazy.

DJ, I couldn't tell ya. Last time I did dinner out that way (by which I mean Sunset and something) I stood out because you my skirt went down past my buttcheeks. So I'd go with retro and hold firm.

Sounds good. I'll be going straight from work, so I'm thinking ass-revealing is a poor choice for me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Allyson, how about eating donuts off strings with your hands behind your back? Not nearly as nasty as bobbing for apples.

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

Look at GFY, go as Bai Ling.

Thanks for the ideas!

I'm going to buy wee pumpkins and have pumpkin painting.

I'm ordering a tray of chicken nuggets and a tray of mac n' cheese so that they can have something to eat before trick or treating.

I do very much like the pinata, though. I may have to do that.

They did the donuts thing last year.

Going straight from the office you're pretty much guaranteeing a hostile work environment for someone.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Pumpkin painting is a great idea. Oh, what about face painting too?

DJ I have no idea what they wear in Hollywood these days, so I say go retro.
