Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That's what the ads say.

Has anyone tested the results with UV lights (or whatever it is they use on CSI)?

Also, I snopesed it and it's totally true!

Speaking of stupid e-mail forwards, my husband's cousin's husband (seriously) sent out this whole thing about Christmas and Jesus and Jews and the omg gasp! secularization of the country. I was rolling my eyes until it got to the part about Billy Graham's daughter explained that Katrina happened because we kicked God out of our lives, so he went and didn't protect us.

Most insensitive use of an e-mail forward ever Y/N?

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

I, for one, welcome our Big Laser Puppet overlords.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Also, I snopesed it and it's totally true!

Dude, this was my cousin's roommate's brother-in-law's best friend. He's totally blind and stuff now! Also, he's suing Canon for, like, a quajillion dollars.

The more people you forward the email to, the more money you get from Canon, because you're saving them from multiple lawsuits!

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

Also, he's suing Canon for, like, a quajillion dollars.

Yeah. And if you google that particular case, you won't find anything because the judge instituted a gag-order at the request of Big Laser.

Someone at work has been taking his email forwards, printing them out, and posting them on the bulletin board in the coffee room.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I had a boss who did that.
