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

That job I got laid off from a year and a half ago? Mortgage industry. I keep wanting to chime in on this conversation but then I start laughing and can't.

It's good that I'm out of that industry, and from what I heard most of the rest of my group is gone too.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Emily, dare I ask why you googled that phrase?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I just googled "dance the hoochie coo standing on the corner." Google must think I'm looking for 1920's hookers.

And wouldn't it make more sense to "goolie" that phrase?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A coworker just asked me not to growl at her. I had to explain I was growling toward her, not at her.

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

Couldn't you say you were growling with her, not at her?

Unfortunately, she was not growling.

I'm also standing in Allyson's corner. I'd love to own a home, but I would never consider it while I still have debt and I know I can't afford anything here on my own anyway. So, while I really sympathize with people that were flat-out defrauded, it bugs that somehow I'm supposed to feel sorry for people that bought something they couldn't afford.

Also, dropping market rates do not cause foreclosures. If you bought a house to live in long-term, and can still afford the payments, a temporary downturn shouldn't affect you.

I wish I was in a position to buy something, since I'm definitely noticing more houses up for sale on my walks, even in Forest Hills, which usually doesn't have any. Of course, this has no real meaning for me since the cheapest one I saw was 1.4 million, but still.

I have everyone and everything. Especially the meth industry for denying me proper Sudafed.

ETA: I don't have, I hate. HATE.

Also, stupid weather, no biscuit! If I get trapped on a train tomorrow for 6 hours, I will be very unhappy.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Emily, dare I ask why you googled that phrase?

I couldn't remember the title of a song ("Saved") that I was looking for on my iPod.

"I used to smoke (boom, boom)
I used to drink (boom, boom)
I used to smoke (boom),
Drink (boom),
And dance the hoochie coo,
I used to smoke and drink, smoke and drink and dance the hoochie coo (boom boom),
Whoah yeah (boom boom),
But now I'm standing on this corner,
Praying for me and you (boom boom),
whoah yeah (boom boom)."

if I remember correctly. Very catchy.

(Edited because of course I didn't.)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

You should see the results I got from "applebottom jeans, boots with the fur".
