Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Emmett!

Because books.

I've mentioned this before, but I once failed a sobriety test (the kind where they make you walk a line, etc.) while completely sober.

I'm not quite that bad (although I've never actually tested it ...) but the sidewalks in town here are primarily old brick or cobblestone, and I have to watch my feet constantly to avoid falling on my face.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Happy Birthday Emmett!

Theresa and tommy must be my siblings! I cannot balance either! I actually have this weird habit of tapping the front of the stair with my foot as I go down if I cannot look at my feet. In college, my BFF asked me why I always walked with my head down, like I was worried, and I told her no-- I am looking at my feet!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Fire ants, msbelle? Those are the only critters I will go ahead and poison. Hate. We used to get some kind of powdery stuff to sprinkle around the nests to wipe them out. Sadly, another nest would eventually crop up somewhere else.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

My allergy to fire ants is why I ended up serving in Moldova instead of Francophone Africa.

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

I do that sometimes too.

OK, people who have a bad sense of balance - do you suffer from motion sickness more than most people too? I do - I wonder if they're related.

"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

Oof. Just posted this in the comments to a friend's status complaining about his neighbors filing a formal complaint against him instead of knocking and asking him to turn it down.

Is it possible their attempts to do this might have gone unheard? Last year I had to call the cops on my downstairs neighbor at 1 am because the music and yelling was too loud for anyone to hear me pounding on the door like a bongo drum.

The upside is never having to yell shot gun cause no one is going to argue that you should ride where you can see.

Yes, I too, always ride in the front!
