It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
This gets quoted so often in our household:
Goodman : And put your garbage in a garbage can, people. I can't stress that enough. Don't just throw it out the window.
Marge : This is so humiliating.
Homer : Garbage in garbage can...hmm, makes sense.

What colors do the non-autumn people paint?
Dark red?
Some of us want to paint wide black & white stripes, but have been repeatedly told "NO. THE HOUSE DOES NOT HAVE TO LOOK LIKE TIM BURTON ART-DIRECTED IT".
Happy birthday to Grace and Noah!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I would actually say "waste basket" more often than "trash can" for receptacles of thrown away stuff that are not in the kitchen.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
"NO. THE HOUSE DOES NOT HAVE TO LOOK LIKE TIM BURTON ART-DIRECTED IT".
What? That's crazy talk!

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
Seriously. Kristen and I are painting one of the walls with satin black and cream thick stripes, then doing a chair rail with cream on top. I'm keeping to the red velvet/wrought iron furniture and accessories.
It's totally Tim Burton.

Jilli, I bought a Nightmare Before Christmas onesie for Noah at the sale today. He'd match your coveted walls. Except the stripes were going the wrong way.
