No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Huh -- Marie Osmond has a gay daughter and is pro-marriage equality. I had no idea. (Also, she has 8 kids from 26 to 7! Holy crap.) And that's today's Ellen Moment...

Woe to the fucking wicked.

We were doing sentence diagramming in class, and I used the example, "Deck the halls with boughs of holly."

We got through the implied [you] subject, since it's a command, fairly easily, but the class had nothing at all when asked what the sentence actually meant. "deck" and "boughs" were both unfamiliar. There were a couple to whom "holly" was not particularly meaningful, and let's not even get into, "well, really, they're probably not talking about halls that connect rooms, but large rooms where many people gather. Like a dining hall."

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?

It is the greetings of the season which I am offering to you.

This!

It's a half day today and my last class starts in a few minutes. Yay!! But then I have meetings all afternoon. Boo!

Always Anti-fascist!

Yeah, Rachel was *awesome* at neutroning Mr. Ex-Gay. "No, it really is here. Page 74."

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I want to breathe through my nose. Please? So tired of the snot monster.

I go with Happy Holidays cause I never could figure out the apostrophie. Now I get it, but will likely stick with Happy Holidays anyway.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Yeah, Rachel was *awesome* at neutroning Mr. Ex-Gay. "No, it really is here. Page 74."

That was a really awesome interview (I had to tag it!). He couldn't even answer a basic question such as "Why do you say that race is a contributing factor to being gay?"

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

This morning on the way to work, it was 29 degrees as I got to Palo Alto. It had warmed up by the time I had to get out of the car, but only to 31, which is officially Too Damn Cold.

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

only to 31, which is officially Too Damn Cold.

So this is one of those "The individual words make sense, but together they're just nonsense" things, huh?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Seriously. You know how much colder it is here? TWENTY DEGREES COLDER.

I don't even want to think about Chicago, which just depresses me with how cold it must be there.
