Our wings are not tired.

Dana, that's terrible and I am sorry to hear it.

Thanks for the confirmation on the zucchini non-peeling. I don't, usually, but since I'm self-taught, I sometimes have no idear what I am doing. For instance, I made a really good potato soup a few weeks back but it would have been a hell of a lot better if I'd peeled the potatoes. They had been grilled, and the grilled, tough skins didn't take well to soup. But they tasted great when just eating the potatoes. So I am learning.

I am afraid to let a frozen banana thaw! I always peel 'em before freezing and stick 'em in smoothies like others here report. I have never made banana bread out of once-frozen bananas, but now I shall try!

Is that an "mmmph" of being impressed, or being surprised, or something else?

Oh, sorry; it's the "mmmph" of I'm certainly not sniffling after reading that story, no sir.

Heh. Nor was I, not even a little bit, nope, nuh-uh.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Cold bastards. I was SOBBING.

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

Mel Gibson goes off the racist, abusive deep end.

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

Oh dear God.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Oh good. I was full out crying, and I couldn't figure out why you were irritated by it!

Cold bastards. I was SOBBING.

Our Pride festival has something similar, where a booth/tent is set up and labeled as a "confessional." Turns out, inside there are members of local churches who confess to all the sins and abuse heaped upon LGBTQ individuals. Amazing. Almost everyone coming out of the tent was crying, but in relief, not upset.

Mel Gibson goes off the racist, abusive deep end.

Even moreso?

Also, I think my head is going to spin around and fly off. I have spent 2 weeks and countless hours dealing with my work nemesis, the unending bureaucracy of universities, varying customer service reps who gave me all sorts of runaround things I had to do, and a man named Gene who never called me back in order to change the name of my department as it is printing on the receipt of my credit card terminal.

Today, I spent 47 minutes on the phone with a customer service rep, before we figured out that you change the name on the machine by TYPING IT IN ON THE MACHINE!!!!! (no I was not given a manual nor could I find one online).

Way moreso, turns out. One day, he'll look back and say, "I shouldda stuck with 'Sugartits'".
