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
Hee. I was just doing that outside as I was banging my head against a wall over work stress. In exactly that Evie tone.

Look for CliffBurns. He's in several places. You'll know him when you read him.
I haven't clicked on the link, but I swear, I KNOW that name from somewhere. As if I've run into him somewhere along the line before.
I'm almost a'skeered to click.

You're supposed to be doing it to sooth the eternal artistic angst of your soul, not for anything so plebian as approval.
Oh, god, now he sounds like someone who reads Twilight

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
connie, I think if this group does any circling there will be more pointing and laughing - and snarking, lots of snarking - than anything else.

What? No Clue x Four? Aw, c'mon, pretty please? It'd be a stress reliever.
