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

I have no passport. I've never been outside of the US.

Everyone I know thinks that's weird.

I'd really love to see Paris someday, though.

So far I have been unsuccessful in my attempts to lose weight since May.

I hear you. I've been keeping a food diary at The Daily Plate for the last few weeks to figure out why my metabolism hates me.

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

I have no passport. I've never been outside of the US.

I've been to Canada multiple times, but that's the only foreign country I've been to. I have no passport either.

It's always seemed to me that international travel is something you do with a significant other. Maybe I shouldn't have been waiting for an SO....

I've only been in Mexico (barely) and Canada, so no passport either. So I don't think it's weird. Paris would be cool to see and I even know someone who lives there. Not going to happen anytime soon, if ever.

Compassionately intolerant

When I did travel a lot, I was bummed that most custom agents didn't bother to stamp my book. Several times I had to ask.

This was problematic when my dirtbag boss did not believe that I'd gone to Scotland to deal with my friend's death. t /unresolved resentment. Ought to take care of that, I suppose.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Renewed my passport earlier this year, since I had a trip to Toronto coming up. (I had misremembered when the passport expired, but had the new one by the trip)

It boggles me that I need a passport for Canada. It just seems . . . wrong. But I need a new refrigerator before I get a passport.

I haven't been outside the US since 2002. I used to go nearly every year, and I've spent 2 years plus one semester living in Europe.

Stinkin' kids.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I got a passport for a work trip several years ago. I promptly lost it a month after getting home, so I had to order a new one. It was an expensive piece of carelessness, but at least my current one's good through 2014.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Another one who's never had a passport here. I have been to Nova Scotia once, and also had family vacations when we went over the border for lunch and then the time we went to Niagara Falls and spent the late afternoon and evening on the Canada side. But that's it for foreign visits.
