Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Years ago I was watching a talk show on TV and the guest was talking about doing volunteer work at a phone center where people with, um, non-conventional sexual tastes could call for advice, help, emotional support, etc. On his first day he had someone call in talking about "water sports" and, as he was expounding the joys of sailing and swimming, the caller broke in and explained what he was talking about.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Speaking of being 12 ...

For the past two mornings, Emeline has run around the house yelling, "I WANT JACKSON BEAVER! I WANT JACKSON BEAVER!" and doesn't understand why Joe and I are giggling.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

On his first day he had someone call in talking about "water sports" and, as he was expounding the joys of sailing and swimming, the caller broke in and explained what he was talking about.

Now, why would a person volunteer for a phone center like that if they weren't at least familiar with definitions of stuff?

(Also? They need better orientation for the volunteers. "Here is your pamphlet. Activities are in alphabetical order and cross-referenced with body part.")

I've never heard of this country. Are the Hell's Angels making up nations?

Are you going to tell them no?

Maybe that's why the guy threw the dog - he was protesting their imaginary countries.

or it's probably a misspelling - Latvia? Lithuania? someone trying to combine the two?

Anyone named Griffith Rutherford Harsh V and attending Princeton has an 85% chance of being an asshole. Just sayin'.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Latveria is a fictional nation in the Marvel Comics Universe. It is an isolated European country ruled by the supervillain Doctor Doom.

Our wings are not tired

Okay, that just gave the Hell's Angels a few points in my book.
