If you hated the trailers for Parenthood you'll probably hate the show. I don't think it was too far misrepresented.
Faith: A kid. Angel's got a kid. Wesley: Connor. Faith: A teenage kid born last year. Wesley: I told you, he grew up in a hell dimension. Faith: Right. And what, Cordelia spent her last summer as… Wesley: A divine being. Faith: Uh-huh. Can I just ask--What the hell are you people doing?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The doctor has decided not to explore my trigger points, bless him. Which is good, because I'm already in the middle of a flareup.
They're running hideously late--it's one of those where they send in a fellow first and I haven't seen the main guy yet, even though my appointment was at ten. And there will probably be a prescription. I may be on team WFH for the rest of the day.

What I've heard about the westboro church is that it is fundamentally a for-profit enterprize . The family (it is all one family) is as offensive and provocative as possible while barely staying within the limits of where the law protects their first amendment rights. And since they are committing those provocations at very emotional moments in peoples lives, a lot of individuals and even institutions do stuff they can be sued for. And they make quite a nice living off those suits. So, essentially meatspace trolls.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
For the first time possibly ever, I shut my door so I could read and relax during my half-hour lunch, rather than working.
Number of knocks on my door in the last ten minutes: Two.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!
I feel for you Dana. I can go a whole morning without co-workers needing to speak to me, and then the instant I raise a spoon or sandwich to my mouth they're clamoring at my door with something that just can't wait 10 minutes.
