Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think the "always lived at home" thing would be a bit of a red flag for me. Where does he have sex?

I really liked McAdams in Wedding Crashers and that's exactly the sort of movie that encourages disposable women, and she wasn't. And her pictures (when she's brunette) always seem warm and charming. I will probably next see her in Sherlock Holmes.

I'm an incredibly huge Bana fan. He gives me the shivers, that man. Chopper, Troy, him in The Hulk...

The same place his parents do?

Having dated someone living at home (and it was an issue but not for the reasons one might think), it doesn't have to be a negative, but it should be a red flag that is considered and discussed.

In their bed? That ain't right.

Place meaning house, not spot.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Ewwww....now I have an icky mental picture.

megan walker, check out this website. You can enter in info about your job and get a salary range. And it's free!! [link]

I did it for my previous job and I think they're pretty accurate for my situation.

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 inferred that he doesn't bring women to his place while his parents are there.

Sorry, I've had a rough day. Turns out storming the castle requires a lot of mental energy, not to mention planning.

That's all sorts of complicated. I grew up in a very sort of "not while you're under my roof!" sort of a house, so I can't imagine spending all my adult years there. Which is why I need a job soon so I don't have to go back. Not that I'm doing anything scandalous now...

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Natter, right? Then I shouldn't be OT if I interrupt the current discussion(s) to note that I missed the tenth anniversary of my delurking, in the Agnes Bertiz motherthread on TableTalk. It was June 2, 1999. ::throws handful of confetti into air over head. toots noisemaker horn::

We now return you to your discussions, already in progress.

ION, the Tourettes theory is gaining ground amongst my theories to explain the guy downstairs. A few hours ago he shouted out a single word (I forget what it was, but the word doesn't lend itself to being used as a single word interjection).

OTOH, he is a musician, and he does have a microphone set up on a stand in his living room right now. Maybe he needed to re-record a single word?
