Punishingly Intricate

is it me, or there has been a bunch of shooting recently, or is the national news just reporting things more?

It seems like it to me too.

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

I'm pretty good at making a house a... what do you call it? a place where you take care of cats....

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I saw that article (with both the astoundingly offensive headline and the new "unoffensive" headline). Please someone take Charlotte Allen's pink fuzzy topped pen away from her, and stab her with it.

I mean, if they have the same confidence in their pills as a guy has in a guy

I think ita's Freudian slip is showing.

Tipping: I just had a $7.50 salad from a salad bar with a bottle of water, all of which I had to fetch/fix myself. (The salad also had questionable spinich, which I'm starting to not so much question as regret) Then, I went to a counter where I paid for all this. There was a sad little styrofoam cup, decorated with "TIPS" written on it. Yeah. I'll get right on that.

I swear, if the cat in that photo was siamese it would be a GET FUZZY come to life. The dog looks quite a bit like Satchel when he's getting schmacked by Bucky.

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

That's so not a left cross. A left hook, more like.

And that dog is certainly massive fail. Bred to take down lions, pussywhipped by a household cat. For shame.

Man, I just ate all of my savoury lunch. Down to the last grain of brown rice. Did I mention how much I liked the stuff? I hope it doesn't turn out to be something contributing to migraines, whenever I do my stupid cleanse and diet.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I look at tipping like the teachers look at As. Just doing your job does not get you a tip*. You need to go above and beyond. Like, if I'm a regular, having my drink rung up and ready when I get there.

*this does not apply to table service, although I think that server's wage is bullshit. Just pay the people a regular salary.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I'm with Vortex just doing your job at the counter isn't enough- and it doesn't really take much to get a tip. Things like telling me a muffin might be stale is enough.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I think I like this faildog the best: [link]

I totally sympathize with the dog here, though: [link]
