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

Like, for the longest time, I thought if you were arrested for robbery, someone would give you CPR.

Heh.

When I was a kid, the warning on cigarette machines about how minors couldn't buy cigs used to confuse me. I was thinking "miner", and was wondering if, say, coal miners were a lower class of citizen and thus were prohibited from smoking....

It's snowing down here too, sarameg!

If you grab a ruler and measure your shoulder from neck-bend to end of shoulder, how long is it? Mine (right one) is 5 inches long. I suspect that's really short/narrow.

um...that was kind of hard to do and a little painful with a metal ruler. But mine is about 6.

My 4 year old is currently deeply confused about the sort of brownies who drink bowls of milk and clean the house, vs. the sort of brownies that you bake. I made brownies last night, and she was all, "That's a cake! Are the brownies inside?"

I wish we had a house-brownie, though.

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

I love that Buffistas will, without much encouragement, torque themselves into weird positions/measure themselves/try to cross their eyes just to check out what someone else is talking about.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Well, I'm willing within reason.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think I got about 5.5", assuming my measurments via handwidths and sheets of paper are accurate. (NB: my paper-as-ruler trick did work to find boots that would fit around my calves.)

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

When I was a kid, part of our house burned down, and the fire fighters came. (Coincidentally a FF cousin was called to the fire, but that's neither here nor there.) Being completely terrible at causal logic at the time, I knew that firefighters were associated with house fires, but I couldn't figure out why, if they start the fires, they then put them out.

IIRC, that led to Rebecca Lizard kneeing herself in the face.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

If you grab a ruler and measure your shoulder from neck-bend to end of shoulder, how long is it? Mine (right one) is 5 inches long. I suspect that's really short/narrow.

I have taken this measurement on approximately 3 billion people, and it is almost always between 5 and 6 on a woman.
