Specious isn't quite what I mean. What I am describing (to the client, so shitty doesn't work) is an argument by one party where they have to show all sorts of things that are highly disputed in order to make their point-- [edited out of an abundance of work caution] "As you can see from this description, this argument is extraordinarily [tenuous, I guess]."
Mal: Well, you were right about this being a bad idea. Zoe: Thanks for sayin', sir.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How is this a well-titled cemetery? I mean, I know the source of the name isn't what immediately comes to mind, but still--that's part of the problem.
Looming large deadline moved two weeks. Doesn't ease up the tension one bit.

I would say that the argument is a house of cards, but I'm sure there's a better term for it out there.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Seems like a totally unremarkable name to me, at least for a Catholic cemetery.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
And now my boss says, all passive-aggressive-like, "Are we going to get that in an email before the meeting?" Gee, if you checked your email, you would see that you got it an hour ago.
At least she'll be out of town next Monday and Tuesday.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I'm now home. We didn't have a snow day, but we did close early (12:10) because of snow. Which means that I have all the drawbacks of a snow day (rehearsal cancelled, speeches cancelled this afternoon even though my 6th graders brought in all their stuff and some of it was food stuffs) and none of the sleeping in benefits.

Well Kit (my mother's mother) certainly didn't, she had no real teeth left by the time she died.
And it turns out they are in the Assumption Cemetery.
