Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

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

Same one as the haircut mom? If not, those two should be friends.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Different mom. Lots of crazy to go around, apparently.

Maybe my kids are crazy magnets like me.

Because books.

I remember that, Cash! And the haircut mom. Ugh.

Haircut Mom's newest thing is telling her 4 year old daughter that she'll get sick if she eats ham. I understand that they're Jewish and the child will eat anything anyone gives her but that kind of makes me uncomfortable.

She was with a (Jewish!) babysitter who gave her pepperoni pizza because she asked for it! WTF?

Because books.

Oh, man, that kind of lie is never a good idea. Just sure to backfire at some point. And four is old enough to understand, "This is something we don't eat," even if she doesn't like it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Oh dear, msbelle.

Goodness knows my kids have said some inappropriate things, but luckily for us the other parents have been understanding. Isaac and his best friends at preschool used to get into fights all the time. Silly boys.

My 9 year old brother once stood on the lava-rock saddle rock in the middle of our front lawn, threw a mallet into the street, and spent a good five minutes screaming "fuck you Joe M-n-! I will kill you! FUCK YOU" to the chagrin of my parents (who didn't get home until the end) and alarm of elderly neighbors.

He and Joe were friends for years after.

Oh shit, Loki just made off with 1/4 of a fig bar, he's eaten most, he likes it!

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

Can we cross over Undercovers and Criminal Minds? And slash Shemar's character with Boris'? It seems suddenly imperative. It could be pre-series, so we don't mess up the canonical Undercovers relationship.

I just had the longest survey call, in which I hadn't heard of almost all of the candidates for mayor and had no issues of particular importance to me. It was embarassing.

Also, I hate not having a neutral. I hate when we do it at work and I hate it as a respondent.
