You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I've been able to trace every cold I've had for the past year to a single source. If ever we have another child, their middle name is going to be "Patient Zero".

let us know when you get to kindergarten. then, replace "cold" with "OMGWTFVIRUS?!!!!"

Fairly important news for people who shop online with Lush, though both slashdot and BBC are unclear about whether other country sites are impacted, or just the UK - [link]

Still sick here, but I am cleaning. Because I'm sick of being a vegetable and I want clean sheets. I expect to fall down after cleaning.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In even less appealing news, has anyone else seen the diaper ad where the babies are having a shitting contest? Because WTF.

It's definitely aimed at the morbid parent mentality. If you can't laugh at shit, then all you end up doing for 2 years is wanting to cry.

And I don't mean shit metaphorically.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

has anyone else seen the diaper ad where the babies are having a shitting contest?

Is it funnier than this one?

Hey, remember that time you had a conversation with your SO about something other than poop or how tired you both are? Yeah, me neither.

And Teppy, I'm so sorry about Chloe. She had a good long life.

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

That's awesome about CJ, Suzi.

Good news for Jesse.

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

I'm not sure how I feel about that. David E. Kelley is not generally my cup of tea.
