The main party for my firm is up in SF, and they don't provide shuttles or anything, so I doubt I'm going to go.
Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
ON THE SAME NIGHT AS MY COMPANY XMAS PARTY
This is the same company with the boss who's been crushing your self-esteem to a fine powder, right? The company from which you've been patiently digging an escape tunnel with a craftily hidden teaspoon? Ass 'em in the ear. They don't deserve your presence. Go revel in the Keanu.

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
Srsly! What if he says, "WHOA."????

Another vote for blowing off the party in favor of something you'll actually enjoy rather than stress over.
Not to mention it will reduce travel time to the coast for those living inland.
Arkansas might finally get an oceanfront!

I just bought my Xmas tree! I don't think it's very fresh. I feel too lazy to put it up.

Why do I have this clawing sense of guilt?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Tired, and I can't blame it on the cat. (This time)

Because despite the fact that they've turned assy, once upon a time, they had earned your respect. Even though they've since lost it, you still remember back in the day. You value loyalty so much, so it makes sense that it would be hard for you to let go, even if that loyalty was betrayed.
But it is time to place that old loyalty lovingly on the shelf to gather dust alongside the respect from back in the day. Sad as it is, those are old memories now.
