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

glad you got it Cashmere. I recently found several pair of navy blue socks and small sized white undershirts if you can use them.

Because books.

No, Vortex, it's fine! It is about our oldest kid. It's just ... I more don't want to write it all out and face it all right now, really. Thank you, though, really.

And thanks, Jesse.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

On the C.L.: The Picture You Can't Stop Talking About: Meet "the Woman on p. 194":

Here's the deal: The picture wasn't of a celebrity. It wasn't of a supermodel. It was of a woman sitting in her underwear with a smile on her face and a belly that looks...wait for it...normal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Luckily, the only issue in my household is that my cat is having semi-regular hairballs. That's just because of the hot weather, right? And will be fixed my more rigorous brushing? (This is helped by the fact that my household is only my cat and myself....)

That woman is a size 12 or 14? That photo is totally ensmallening, belly rolls or not.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

What Jesse said. I'm a 12-14, and that woman is either sucking it in or Photoshopped.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Hey, I'm a 12 and I am only 5'4.

The dip from the little belly roll up to her ribcage just does not look like normal human anatomy.

And to answer their other question - yes, I've been to enough gym locker rooms and women-only spas to know what "normal" looks like beyond my own skin.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Oh, the other jokes got robbed! Here are the ones I'd put over the hedgehog joke:

• 2) Paddy Lennox - "I was watching the London Marathon and saw one runner dressed as a chicken and another runner dressed as an egg. I thought: 'This could be interesting'."

• 5) Jack Whitehall - "I'm sure wherever my dad is; he's looking down on us. He's not dead, just very condescending."

• 7) Marcus Brigstocke - "To the people who've got iPhones: you just bought one, you didn't invent it!"

• 8) Rhod Gilbert - "A spa hotel? It's like a normal hotel, only in reception there's a picture of a pebble."
