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

You'd so get people asking the TA if meth was an ok substitute.

Heh. Especially because meth is cheaper.

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

Poor physicists would get stuck with frictionless-hookers and massless-blow.

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

I had one lecturer who always used beer and pizza.

I remember guns and butter.

We seemed to always use bread and wine for the two-good examples. Not in Rehab!Prof's classes. I don't recall going over examples in that class at all. Instead, he read to us from his novel-in-progress, which was about a guy living on a tropical island hallucinating lizards, as I recall.

My best friend from childhood got involved in a meth (and other) lab in hs. Run by a grad student out of the university where he was interning or something. Made a shitton of money that, like a teen boy, he spent like water. All came crashing down. Grad student went to jail, friend got a full ride IF he kept on the straight and narrow and provided testimony.

He's a dentist with a large family now. He so needed braces as a kid, had the overlapping canines and spare teeth going on. Guess he probably got that fixed, I've never seen a dentist with bad teeth.

Hookers and Blow!

Ahem.

Did anyone see (and maybe post) the article in the NYT about how Natalie Portman is a smarty pants? [link]

I kinda feel like I can't go on. If anyone sings Celine Dion to me, I'll have to kill.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I kinda feel like I can't go on. If anyone sings Celine Dion to me, I'll have to kill.

Yeah, but if you die she might sing "Smile" at your funeral. So, better go on. It's what Beckett would advise.

I promise I won't sing. It's horrific no matter the tune. One more hour, you'll get through. And then another. And another. And some hours will suck. And some won't.

Loki is doing aerial loops. Took him out on the deck, seems to have wound him up.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The woman undressed and got on stage with her male partner, who used a device that looks like a machine-powered saw with a phallic object instead of a blade.

Ooh, a Fuckzall! (You know, like a Sawzall.)

(Actually, no power tool will EVER come near my special ladyparts [I'm sure there's a "power tool" joke one could make about my boyfriend, but I won't go there], ever ever ever. Dude, it's a damn reciprocating saw. I know, no blade, but still. The thought that it was a SAW would never leave my mind. Yow.)
