Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also, SNL is wrong with you.

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

SNL is wrong with you.

Couldn't even tell you what you're talking about. No idea when the last time I saw SNL was, now that I think about it.

"Jane, you ignorant slut!" is from there. From the 70s.

That's kind of creepy. I've never watched any 70s SNL. I dislike random hivemind infections.

Sorry about that. Relatedly, my coworkes made me watch the dead parrot thing the other day. I was like, "Oh wait, is it pining for the fjords?"

I forgot my real news! My subway was super delayed, and I can't believe they announced that it was because a person got hit by a train! I believe that happened, but I'm surprised the announcement was that explicit.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

You'd never seen the dead parrot sketch????!!!!!!?

Nope.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Didn't "slut" use to mean sloppy and lazy about housework, i.e. a slob? I think the sexual aspects of the word are relatively modern.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

People who have seen Friday's Fringe--where do I know Mrs Mercher (sp?) from?

Not sure, but you could look here. [link] She was kind of delightful on Fringe.
