And as Princess Touchy McFeely of the Snuggletown McFeelys, I am boggled that people say you don't get to choose who you hug. That's just refugnant.
This is my reaction. I like hugging people! I do not want to hug EVERYONE. Those people who walk around with "Free Hugs!" signs make me feel kind of uncomfortable.
You know who we should clone? We should clone Daniel's mom, and secretly replace these other wackaloon parental units with the copies. She's the kind of crazy that sets people at ease and makes them enjoy her company.
I would suggest cloning my parents, but a clone army of my Dad could be either be AWESOME, or signal the end of the world. I'm not sure which.
She feels like he doesn't defend her enough to our craxy mom. I said "well, we know that she's batshit, and there's no point in wasting your energy. We just have to get SIL to that realization. Until then, you're kinda screwed"
I felt like this for a very long time until realized that if Joe defended me to his mom every. single. time she irritated, offended, or upset me, he'd do nothing but talk to her all the freaking time. So now, like with my child, I choose my battles. I made Joe tell her to NOT refer to my size when we visited when I was 7 months pregnant and he told her that she upset my mother. I, in turn, try to blow things off. I'm not always (not usually) successful at it, but I try.
I am now on my fifth load of laundry. And I've got a few more things, like my mattress pad and some extra blankets, that really should be washed, too. (Right now, I've got three loads of clothes, one of blankets, and one of sheets and pillowcases.)

Didn't coin it but I love it. I think of it like "fugly," and I'm going to do my best to spread it to THE WORLD.
ooh! I want one of Jilli's dad! MM, how's the cloning device coming along? better than the transporter?

I was thinking it was expanding "refudiate" to other repu- words.
Hil, that's what I thought too.

I went to a Shakespalin place, too.
Oddly, my BIL thinks my parents are not as awful and crazy as my sister and I do. He looks at us like we're insane when we moan and groan and roll our eyes. I mean, he realizes they're not normal, but...doesn't think they're as bad as we do. We're like "YOU DIDN'T GROW UP WITH THEM! THEY DIDN'T INSTALL YOUR BUTTONS TO PUSH!"
I'm going on the assumption that There's A Kink For That applies to almost any pain-inducing activity I can think of, including head punching.
...I've seen people indulge in a kink for punching, though it was more about punching torso and legs, rather than in the HEAD. But yeah, I'ma assume it's out there.
And WTF, France? No changing your name??
Oh. My. doG. It's only Tuesday and I'm ready to trade my family for a set of drunk Carnies from the county fair.
