Were we talking in here about Michael Stipe "just" announcing he was gay?
Yeah, what was that about? The video was funny!
Good luck, Kevin! Here's a gambit: "How about that local sports team?"
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Compassionately intolerant
I have a date in an hour in a pub. I'm nervous. I'm trying to think of fun things to talk about.
How about, "Tell me all about YOU." That works well, plus gives you clues for even more interesting stories and questions.

I just ate five Samoas, and feel disgusting, yet satisfied. Mmmmm.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I attempted to get the bagels I've been craving but have been foiled by my Christian bagel place - not that they proselytize while selling you a bagel
"I'd like a sesame seed bagel."
"Have you accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior???"
"Uh...I'm really more of a Rastafarian."
"NO BAGEL FOR YOU!!!"
"...Er, I mean, PRAISE HIM!!!!"
"That'll be 83 cents, ma'am."

I have a really hard time not misreading Samoas as Samoans every Girl Scout cookie season. It's disturbing.
Halfway through the laundry. And then I need to find an open store to buy ziplocs. Shouldn't be too hard, but it always surprises me that Target is closed and that shakes my confidence!

Mmmm...Samoans! Someone on a New York LJ community asked where she could find samosas. Samosas? Way easier to find than Girl Scout cookies.
I'm really surprised that Target is closed.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
How about, "Tell me all about YOU." That works well, plus gives you clues for even more interesting stories and questions.
I like that! Thanks. I asked my best friend for advice - she sent me a text saying "Don't fuck it up". Which is, well, pretty good advice I guess.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Maybe WeHo Target is open. Gay Heathen Target.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
And I always read Samoas as Samosas, too. Happily, I have a package of them from Whole Foods downstairs in the fridge, so I'll be able to assuage my craving, soon.

Grocery stores should be open. Whole Foods was anyway. I was there earlier (and saw John Waters at the prepared foods counter).
