Sweet, tommy!

Seriously, the penguing footage was of them storming through people lying on the beach, traisping on terraces and squwaking on lawns.

Kat, I barely understand that article. It's so freaking alien.

I KNOW. I get the kids picking on each other for clothing (Willow and the softer side of sears). But what is alien is the idea that a parent would pay for clothes that are that expensive for a kid!

YES. Unless these are all financial prodigies, the parents are...man, I can't imagine. But my mother was frightfully hard-assed about that sort of stuff. If status was determined by the number of vials in your chemistry set, I was golden. Otherwise? SOL.

I think I'm finally sold on school uniforms.

Not only is that first mom spending outrageous amounts of money on the clothes, she's not letting her kid be a kid.

But the headline expressing shock at this happening in Middle School? Eh. It was when I was in Jr. High that everyone was expected to have Jordache, Nike, Izod and Swatch (I only had the Nikes). Things loosened up in high school. Or maybe I just didn't feel the pressure so much by then.

This is why I love school uniforms.

Here are some kids being kids. You wouldn't want them doing this in Dolce.

Oh god, there was this poor girl (poor in two senses, actually, but I meant the "poor her!" sense) who got a Jordache purse in sixth grade or so...but she got it at the flea market a year too late. She got more shit. I guess it's better to be style-neutral than obviously behind the times.

My aunt and uncle (and my young cousin's grandmother) spend that kind of money. I was flabbergasted when I went shopping with them and they spent as much on one outfit as my parents would have spent on an entire year's worth of clothes. I mean, yes a bit of time has passed, but still.

Grey's Anatomy: Dude, can we stop saying Meredeth slept with someone elses husband? She didn't KNOW he was married and he was seperated, like, by a CONTINENT seperated. Sheesh.

I mean, ok, she picked it up again once cheaty wife showed up in town but dude, I think its not quite the same as Izzy

Who, if we recall correctly, was until a minute ago madly in love with poor dead Denny who she killed. Seriously. oy.

Dude, Karev, you can think a guy is a lousy surgical intern if he's a lousy surgical intern. It didn't give him a stroke. You can go back to YOUR somebody-elses-wife with a clean conscience.

So this is how pro-bono surgeries work? Cool. Goodness knows surgeons who barely see their children should drop everything for non-emergency surgeries.

but I still love the nazi (even if they hardly call her that anymore). because she is my favorite person on this show.

Derek, you ass, just give the woman some more time. you didn't grow up yourself until ten minutes ago.

Worst air quality I've experienced was Prague in the spring. Inversions caused all the smog to get stuck in the valley and it hurt to inhale and you'd get all dizzy. You'd see people walking around with unlit cigarettes, using the filters. Oh & your clothes all got this grey film. Blech.

Ok, that cigarette thing is v. clever.
