Vortex nails it.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Heh. I knew two of the quotes, and only got four right.
The two I knew were the only ones I got. Fire-breathing fists and Queen of England.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Just because you're not as crazy as someone else, it doesn't mean that you're not crazy.
Ain't that the truth, though.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I didn't know any of them, and I got six.
I've been so puzzled as to what rhymes with "winning," but I think the light bulb just went off. Is it "sinning"?

I think you could make a good bit of spare change taking tests for people. There are always people looking for someone to take the LSAT for them!
K and I went to Circle time at the local library. It was a zoo. I've never been to the daytime version, just bedtime stories, and I think I'm glad. Tomorrow we may go to the real zoo.

new quote: I don't want to resign, but I might, because I don't want to be around crazy people.
Me: Well, at least you have the option to resign.
I have NO option!!!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

This reminds me, I should thank the people at the local animal shelter. My mom's new rescue cat is slightly lame (doesn't seem to bother him, but one of his legs was broken and reset at a funny angle) and extremely clingy, therefore making him the perfect object to focus about 95% of her overprotective Crazy on.

A Rescue Pets for Neurotic Clingy People program is clearly needed. I got a couple folks I can refer.
