Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I think he had a classmate whose father died.

I suspected it was something like this when you first mentioned it.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

We went out to the local dive and I got a damn fine burger. Easier than killing and butchering a cow myself, especially at this time of night.

And you know how sometimes you're hungry for something specific, and you get it, and it's just the best damn thing in the world? This burger was that. So. Fucking. GOOD.

I also had a salad, so I cheerfully killed across the spectrum of animals and plants.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Ah, that's a whole 'nother level of scary for him.

There was an episode of Little House on the Prairie where a baby died. I freaked the fuck out. I didn't know a baby could die.

Wikipedia tells me I was four and my sister about seven months old. I do not envy my mother that one. I'm tearing up a little thinking about it, actually. No doubt the birth of my niece yesterday is part of my getting upset, but I remember that freak out pretty vividly.

Parenting. Not for the weak.

HA! I saw it and immediately thought of you. I don't know if you can tell, but the entire thing is covered with all sorts of punctuation marks. FUN.
