Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Ann, that's a ferret.
As someone who has dealt for nearly 20 years with an older brother with schizophrenia, your response would be entirely appropriate.
I don't have that kind of experience with schizophrenia, but I have to agree with your comment. If you've gone out of your way to help, at the very least you're exempt from criticism for anything that doesn't start, "Any idiot would know better than to...."

I love you guys. Where else could you make a Shakespeare joke knowing it would be appreciated?
A friend called me once because something happened at his work that made him laugh and laugh, but he couldn't find anyone who saw the humor in it. The office was being moved by Burnham Movers and the tall office plants had been put in moving boxes. He kept saying, "Look, it's Birnam Wood" and nobody got it.

Heh, that reminds me of a great speech from ROXANNE:
We haven't had any irony here since about, uh, '83, when I was the only practitioner of it. And I stopped because I was tired of being stared at.

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
This morning on the Today Show Anne Curry (who I swear is the only reason I watch the thing) was talking with some sort of expert about the Omaha tragedy. Anne was all "what do we do with kids who grow up in the wild and fall through the cracks" and the expert was "mental illness is complicated, people need to pay attention blah blah". Anne rallied with "do you think the life of complete abandoment and deprivation MADE him mentally ill?"
That woman rocks.

::snerkity snerk:: I make dorky jokes like that all the time. If they're pop-culture-related, Chatty!co-worker gets about 90% of them (leading him to taunt me about my anorak).

Hah! I could have told you.
We're in mourning right now, acutally, because the favorite toy (monkey!) has been utterly and completely dismembered. I found the head on the landing as I was coming up last night, and limbs every couple of stairs. Kind of freaky, I'll tell you what.
It wasn't really her fault, though - the monkey got left outside and froze to the porch, and I think she was just really trying to get it up so she could play with it. And I can't believe how sad I actually am about it.
