Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

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

Polgara named herself after the Eddings sorceress, and they named the Buffy demon after human Polgara, not fictional one.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

That's what I thought! Only I seriously did not express it right. I never heard of the David Eddings Polgara, somehow I just thought that human Polgara made up the name....

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

One of the Philadelphia librarians just sent me this .

The list made me laugh, and I don't think she was trying to tell me something.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Stop demagnetizing her key card, Perkins. Geez!

What about the ticks? Can I still do the tick thing?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I want to be the sock-wearing cookie eater.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I always worry that I smell like road ramps!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I keep random toys on my counter for the scientists to play with while they're waiting for appointments.

I got a rubik's cube yesterday, and it's infuriating because they keep walking by, picking it up, and solving it in ten minutes and then I have to mix it all up again.

This isn't a normal first world problem, is it?

I'm surprised it takes them 10 minutes.

(I have to confess that I'm one of those people who would stop to solve it.)

Rubik's cubes are easy. Take a flat bladed screwdriver to pry it apart, then reassemble it solved. Hey, it's how Captain Kirk would have done it.
