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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Oh its so pretty!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Owen just asked me how to spell "giraffe." I had to think hard about it.

I think I'm in trouble.

Fuck about PD. When will I learn not to watch smart, good tv shows?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Random question: Is spanking your child illegal anywhere in the US? It's illegal in most countries, right?

Intellectually, I've never understood why battery is any better because its a child. It always seemed like an ownership thing to me, like the child is property.

Emotionally, there are plenty times when I've wanted to smack a child in my care and once that I did (she ran into traffic, I was 13... it was a nightmare).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I think battery is generally illegal, athough often not enforced here. I mean, anyone who slaps another person has battered them, right? But most of them don't get arrested.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I can see a swat on the bottom when they're still in that lizard brain stage and can't be reasoned with-of course I say this as someone who was never spanked as a child.
