Yeah. I don't know what she does at school all day and she can't tell me either. I wish I could just go in and watch what is going on.
Because stalking your own kid is perfectly normal? It would be for batman.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
OK, now I'm wondering if anyone's written fic where Batman has Superman's baby and then there's an emergency so Batman and Superman have to leave the bat!baby in the care of Bat-Mite and then Bat-Mite loses Bat!baby at the carnival and all sorts of wacky adventures ensue....

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
My University has a policy that they do not pay late fees. Ever. For any reason.
I want to institute this policy for myself. I don't see my various utility companies going along with it, though.

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

I love that you're not a geek and you post this.
Today I have broken out the steel toed mary janes for the first time. With insoles and thick socks they aren't way too big. But I do feel uneasy because they're brick red/orange and ita doesn't wear coloured shoes, like, ever. But they match my top and those are the rules, right? Right?
I'm just going to have to dwell in the secret knowledge of the steel toes.

What's a good way to initiate a conversation with my boss wherein I say "Two people who have worked here less time than me and have fewer responsibilities are both Managers, where I am not. FIX THIS NAO PLS."
Granted, I'm pretty sure nobody in the entire company is getting a raise this year so now might not be the best time to initiate this conversation, but at some point it really does need to happen.

Whenever I hear about steel-toed boots, I think of cows. Having had my toes stepped on by cows when wearing steel-toed boots and also when not, I can confirm the efficacy of steel-toed boots in the "cow stepping on toes" scenario.

Jessica, it's not uncommon to give a promotion on paper in place of a raise.

It would be impossible here - there are very strict payscale tiers based on titles.

Hmm. Where do I find a cow in LA?

Because books.
Where do I find a cow in LA?
That seems wide open for nasty jokes.
Steel-toed Mary Janes make me think of the little girl in The Bad Seed. Who probably would have appreciated them.
