"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I'm getting lectured by my friend's boyfriend about how to properly express my concern that she just got out of an abusive relationship and is now considering moving across the country with his shady ass (I've mostly been fine with the whole thing until this "Move to LA and let's get marrrrrrieeeeed crap came up).

I believe the fact he is lecturing you is grounds for are you fucking insane!? Bad idea! being a proper way to express concern.

Mnrph.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Well, he's right that the timing and manner was poor. It's the "Are you sure this is really what you're worried about?" Yeah, dude. I'm 33, have plenty of close friends both here and as far away as Australia. I'm not upset my best friend is moving to LA. I'm worried that she's moving for you.

There's just something really grating when someone (and it really chafes when it's a guy) tries to tell me what my motivations are.

I would properly express my opinion by saying "fuck you"

Does lecturing ever end well?

GRR. I suck! I meant to buy Koinobori before today (since today is the day you are supposed to display them for Children's Day) but I forgot. And the Japanese American National Museum isn't open for me to go buy some. I need someone with better internet searching prowess to find where I can go buy them in LA today!

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I can't stop yawning very loudly, and my office is frickin' freezing and the jacket I'm wearing isn't stopping me from shivering. Combine all this with the fact that when I'm really tired and can't stop yawning, my eyes also tend to water and I'm sniffling because I'm damn cold, so I'm running through kleenex like whoa.

This day really sucks.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I say we all go home and pretend today is not happening.

I'm in.
