If you want me to leave, you can put your hands on my hot, tight little body and make me.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I'm watching Grey's Anatomy reruns on Lifetime and what the hell? Was Season 4 a total Buffy reunion, or what?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I think American Psycho is hands down the most disturbing thing I've ever read.

I've just read about them and it was disturbing enough.

hip deep in pie

I was just at the mall...and there was someone yelling out "Messiah!" "Messiah!" Then I realized that was her kid's name. Talking about impossible expectations.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And then she suggested, for a memorable image, that they should put the image of THE SHROUD OF TURIN on the linen.

Ha ha ha ha!!!!

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

Not thinking about American Psycho.

I always wondered how polygamists manage, money-wise.

Welfare, mostly.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

My stuff on ebay is selling super cheap with like 1-2 hours to go. Makes me wonder if I should look at stuff to buy, like is everything going cheap?

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

Welfare, mostly.

Really? Is that just in the US? Predominantly the no-longer-approved Mormon polygamy and cults?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

From what I've read, a lot of the women in the FLDS groups register for welfare as single mothers.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I have a Quiverfull... in my pants! OK, that was a dumb joke, but maybe someone will laugh anyway....

Mostly it gives me the mental image of you trying to break the world record for stuffing live ferrets down your trousers. (A record that was, at one time at least, held by the Seventh Doctor.)

Don't know about anything non-US, but with most of the big Mormon families that have come to light (splinter Mormons, I can't remember what they call themselves) this is the case. Because only one of the women is considered legally married and therefore part of the family income - as far as the state is concerned, all the rest are unemployed and without family income. Kind of a reverse Catch-22.
