You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

If you had an identical twin who worked at the same place as you, you could stay home from work while your twin split her time between both your jobs.

This is a foolproof plan - no one would ever know.

This is like the inverse of the Three's Company where Jack had made a date with 2 women on the same night, and he kept running back and forth between the tables.

Oh, Jack. You scamp.

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

I'm so sorry, FredPete.

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

Greg Brady did the same thing, right?

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Until about five years ago, our 25-person department had not one but two sets of identical twins! One set retired at that point, but the other women are still here. They've got different haircuts, thank goodness.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

what's up with scheduling the wedding two days after your birthday?

Um, we didn't want to wait until after the holidays?

Wait, do we have the same birthday? September 12?

And Richie Cunningham, I think.

What the hell, Kathy? Do you work for Doublemint?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's so crazy!

Swouncing

Tom's got your back!

Yay Tom!

What does he wanna know?

Also, tommyrot:

In traditional Judaism, each person has two desires (in the lack of a better English word), constantly in conflict inside their soul: the desire to do good, and the desire to do evil. It's not unlike those cartoons of an angel sitting on one shoulder, and a devil sitting on the other. And nobody is going around without both of those desires, even the best or worst of people.

But, and here's the main point, IMHO, *both* these desires were created by G-d, both of them come from the same place. It's not a battle of good-vs-evil in the source of things, because both the good and the evil are coming from the same source. There are no two separate entities fighting anywhere, other than inside each person's soul.

So Satan in its traditional role as the entity which is standing against all of the good G-d's good intentions is not the picture here. In fact, Satan is just another one of G-d's angels, "servants", so to speak.

And then, of course, you go into other big questions, such as why should there be evil in a world created by G-d (in order to benefit the creatures in it), why should there be a desire to do evil in the human should and so on. But that's another question, and I think that I already babbled more than you asked for and should shut my keyboard up.

Punishingly Intricate

But how do you know?

Remaining twin not so evil! He will usually say "hi" to me, for example.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
