Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

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

The idea of one night, one hot tub, and just me and a dolphin with no strings attached is alluring to me, so what? Don't you get it!? I don't go around murdering whales all over the place!

Who wrote that? Alyson Hannigan?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG. Why do people want me to be an expert in things I'm NOT EXPERT IN. And all frantic and last minute because the stuff is so freaking late, for reasons that had nothing to do with me. Now I'm going to give the wrong answer (see above re, not expert) and then shit is going to go down. BAH.

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

Judge sides with man fired for posting 'Dilbert' comic at office

A judge has sided with a man who was fired for posting a "Dilbert" comic strip that made fun of managers on an office bulletin board.

David Steward was fired from the Catfish Bend Casino because management found the cartoon "very offensive," human resources director Steve Morley testified at a recent unemployment benefits hearing. The casino had challenged his claim for unemployment benefits.

"Basically, he was accusing the decision-makers of being drunken lemurs," Morley testified. "We consider that misconduct when you insult your employer."

The rest of the article describes the Dilbert comic. It sounds to me like "drunken lemurs" was a simile....

Katrina was because God hates us for tolerating the Jews?

Because New Orleans is a hotbed of Jewish cabals and Mardi Gras is one of their religious holidays?

Congrats, DJ's sister!

That explains all those dreidel-shaped Mardi Gras beads I kept finding on Bourbon Street.

You know what's a bummer? Getting a phone call from the front desk that there's a package for you...a package right before Christmas...getting all excited and going down to pick it up...and then discovering that the "package" is, in fact, a folder full of recommendation letter requests. D'oh!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

YAY!! Happy new member of the Jane clan day!
