Oh for the love of Chthulu.

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

Your reaction is my reaction. I responded to her as graciously as I could in between my giggles. It's so ridiculous!

It'd be hypocritical to profess to love and/or follow Jesus, but Satan says it's OK to invoke him for deceptive purposes.

Happy Birthday, Jesse and Theodosia!

It's not pink. Still nice though.
I will be at Megan's. If I make it off the sofa, I will be bringing brownies and possibly truffles with me.
If not, TJ's cookies FTW!

Okay, I know I always think "FTW" is Fut the Whuck but it isn't really, right? What does it mean again?

Well, I suppose it's the opposite end of the spectrum from those people who are offended when athiests (and people of other religions) don't celebrate Christmas.

Yes, Matt. Someone pointed out to her that we non-believers apparently can't win. If we don't say "Merry Christmas" then it's a war on Christmas. If we do, we're "pretending". Whatevs. I'm seriously not offended by her, just sort of "uh?" about it. I can't take it seriously because it's too loony. Besides, further down, it comes out that she really just hates atheists because apparently we're spending all of our time trampling on her "freedom of religion". So this is just a petty thing to bring up when she has a much larger hate going on.
