Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

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

Thanks, msbelle. I'm just so offended on a personal level.

I lived there for 7 years! And the thing is? They didn't clean my apartment. They painted (as they had to do), and put in hardwood floors and new tile, as they do in between each tenant that lived there before they purchased the building. They also put in a new toilet, which they had to do since mine was like from 1962 and required constant maintenance.

My deposit was $600, Kat.

Okay, but THIS from the article does crack me up:

And the gossip-magazine editors appear to hold the cards most of the time.When President Bill Clinton submitted an essay for publication in US, it did not pass muster with Ms. Min.

β€œIt was the magazine equivalent of watching C-Span,” she recalled, a slight shudder in her voice. β€œI was a little mortified to do it, but we kicked it back to the president for a revise.”

Allyson, are you going to fight to get the deposit back? Because is that equivalent to the amount that they didn't pay for utilities that your lease says they were supposed to pay?

I've done some of the math, and they'd be paying me a lot more if I went after them for the utilities.

Are you planning on doing that?

Allyson, that is so obnoxious. I would totally go after what they owed me. Of course, I get pissed when someone takes too long in the bathroom, so what do I know.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I've become so deadened to the Clinton campaign's cries of "Well, people who didn't vote for me, um, don't count anyway! Because [ridiculous pander to her Favorite Demographic of The Hour]! Nyah!" that the comment quoted above doesn't even ping me at all.
