Nothing that would conveniently fit in my ear.
::must. resist. straight line...::
No responses have anything to do with Cass in particular, and everything to do with things which conveniently fit in the ear.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Jesse, at first I thought you meant the first commenter, who didn't get the point of the article and thought "It wasn't that crazy"
And then I found the crazy person.

Devi found an open box with mostly stuffed animals in it. She's slowly sinking lower and lower in it, sound asleep. MK's at my feet (he's been hanging out more downstairs,) Loki is crashed out in chair, slowly slipping out of it. Putting one of the monster ac units on energy save and a set temp of 76 upstairs with a fan directed down the stairs keeps everything under 78. I got a smaller lidded trashcan so don't have to smell that (seriously, it takes a couple days to fill a normal grocery bag now, but it smells faster, so this is perfect.)
All's right in Sara's house.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Damn, that is one crazy person.
Tipping etiquette makes my head hurt. Is 20% the norm now? I've been doing 15%.
I discovered recently that my parents don't grok that tipping your server is unofficially mandatory. We went out to an IHOP, and our waitress said there would be a 15% gratuity added to our bill, and my dad got all huffy. I was confused because we would have been paying that anyway, and he was all, "No!" If I went out to eat alone, did I leave a tip? Uh, yeah. Well, I didn't have to! Uh, yeah I do.
It was so bizarre.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Oh, sure, mock me now. But I won't be the one with roasted corn stuck in my ear.
Oh, god, don't let me ever have roasted corn stuck in my ear .

20% is definitely the NYC norm.

I am really weirded out by the fact that the antibiotic I am taking (clarithromycin) smells like vanilla pudding mix. And it is a pill.

My dad is a pain in the ass tipper. He's not cheap, he's got it stuck in his head it should be 10%. My mother tries to take the bill, but if he shells out (yeah, both their money, but it depends on who has the cash on hand) she always supplements. I see this a lot when they visit, because usually dad carries the cash for various reasons I don't get and we heckle him, he looks confused and affronted and we drop extra cash. It bugs my mom because they're paying and she doesn't want me to pay tip, but there's my dad, being clueless and I'm often faster than her or have the cash on me.
I really don't get it. I feel bad for his servers when he's travelling alone. OTOH, when travelling abroad, he's overly generous. He's got a blind spot for waiting wages US, I guess.
