In Bitches, wrt lamenting about love (or lack there of)
Raq:
Yeah, you're really missing out on the other person's random mood swings, bizarre demands, strange sleeping habits, strange eating habits, fights about money...and that's just in a healthy relationship.
Of course, you're also missing out on the potential for daily sex, but that might just be Vortex's parents.
NoiseDesign:
I don't want to have daily sex with Vortex's parents. IJS.
Trudy Booth:
I get a lot of that from the roommates and don't get to have sex with either one of them.
In Bitches, further considerations on love
omnis audis:
I'm thinking an ad in Craigslist to start the Elenor Rigby Society or something. If we get all the lonely people together, might have a better chance of them not being so lonely.
tommyrot:
Yeah. Or else maybe we'd end up with all the lonely people in one big room, with everyone saying, "God, the rest of you all suck."
Trudy Booth:
At least we'd finally find out where the hell they all come from.
Jessica on the joys of "fine" dining:
It was like being served by Rachel Ray on speed.
Tom Scola and tommyrot discuss Disney movies:
Tom Scola: because Fantasia was kind of a box-office bomb.
tommyrot: That's their fault for releasing it before LSD was invented.
In Literary, truer words have never been spoken:
Beth:
Twitter is not a book.
For posterity. In Bureaucracy, NoiseDesign puts forth a bold proposal:
This is where proposals go, so I'd like to make one that's been a long time coming, and to be honest, a bit overdue.
Since we met here and it's been a focal point for both of us and the source of so many of our friendships I'd like to make a proposal.
Kristin, will you marry me?
(If I don't get enough seconds on this there will be hell to pay)
There are, indeed a large number of seconds, but to cut to the chase, Kristin replies in Lightbulbs:
Holy shit!
Um.
I mean. Yes yes yes!
I'll leave it to someone else to capture the highlights of the w&p.
And the Official Stompy wrap-up:
VOTE TOTALS: YES: 1. NO: 0. The proposal passes.
