"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Didn't they tell him it was because he was too big? I thought I remembered that about the kerfuffle.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

I thought that was what he was tweeting or blogging or something. He said it was because he was too big. That story must have changed.

I broke down and called with 10 minutes to go. He will be here in another 20 minutes. I totally had time for that bath. I'm not going to take one now, even with the extra time, just to punish him.

Punishingly Intricate

Was it in first class? I'm assuming yes, because Kevin Smith, but seems like they wouldn't want to piss off the high dollar customers. The riff raff back where the rest of us sit, yeah, kick our asses out the door.

It was Southwest so no classes.

Wasn't any kind of company policy but a misstep on part of the gate staff.

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

I have a long weekend booked away! I'm so excited! And my boss asked if I didn't want to take any time off before then...

Sadly, I need to take an extra day off so I can go to the ER when I come back, but I guess I just need to factor that in from now on. I haven't seen this friend in a gazillion years, and I've been remiss in keeping in touch, so this is long overdue.

Yay for fun, long weekend!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Kevin Smith tweeted that whole ordeal in excruciating detail. I had to unfollow him. He said he's bought two tickets for the first leg of the flight because his wife had meant to join him, but then she didn't. On the second leg of the flight, he was sitting next to an older lady, who told him he was fine, and had already buckled the seat belt when the captain came and told him he had to get off the plane. They threw a heavyset young woman off the same flight. Humiliating, and totally without justification.

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

I think I might be old enough that I am wondering if that means they think I am immature?

Well, you were making jokes in LolCat speak for a year and they didn't know what you were referencing.

The Steve Buscemi comment was surely ironic, but let's not forget his first major role was as the Prettyboy Cool Gay Guy in Parting Glances.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, he was awesome in that. Great film too.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

No, his role was the Bitter Snarky Soon-to-be-dead-of-AIDS Gay Guy in Parting Glances. I think the Prettyboy Cool one was Adam Nathan.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Oh, msbelle. I can totally see how you are ovewhelmed right now, and I hope your folks get more comfortable real fast, since one of the reasons you moved it so your could have more support with Mac.

I do not know how you deal, and so gracefully. I'd be flippin' like a mammal; I'm sure you WANT to, and feel you can't. I wish you lived closer; I would be happy to spell you when you needed it -- I have lots of exp. with flippin' out, runnin-away-threatening kiddos. Poor Mac, poor you.
