Sometimes I like to troll craigslist looking at apartment listings. I just came accross one that says "We ask that all tenants provide us with a police report showing a clean record before we consider you as a tenant. ". Does that seem weird to anyone else. Also, how do you do that-- walk into the police station and have them print up nothing?
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

I was never spanked. Threatened to be spanked a lot. But mostly the sheer volume of my mother yelling at you made to stop whatever you were doing.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CaBil!!!!
I think I was spanked, but at an age too young to remember, and probably for something like running out in to the highway. My dad had a much more effective way of tearing me down verbally.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I hope I didn't suggest that my dad was a monster about it.
God, not at all. Sometimes I think the best (and hardest) thing anyone can do is to try to do better than their parents, no matter how "good" or "bad" their parents did.

Trust my rage
sophia, I do think it is unusual but you can get a "no police record" from most police stations.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We got spanked once in a while. Not with a belt or hairbrush or anything. My dad did smack me upside the head a couple of times that I recall, for mouthing off--which is not good, but his parents beat him regularly, so it was a huge improvement. I know he felt bad about it and apologized when I was older, but it only happend a few times, and each time I had been REALLY pushing the limits, so I don't feel bad about it.

I was spanked, but it stopped pretty early. Probably around the time my parents discovered they could punish me by forbidding me to watch that day's syndicated episode of Star Trek.
