What I get for Not Cooking While Hungry is that I just bought and inhaled a bag of Cheeto puffs. Oy.
Yes, there is. There's a hurry, Xander. I'm dying...I may have as few as fifty years left.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I did a big grocery trip today, filed yet another insurance application, made a trip to the PO and then a little shopping at Jo-Ann's and BB&B. I got stuff to finish projects, so that is good. Maybe will do a project this weekend after housecleaning. Or maybe I start housecleaning tonight. possibilities.

That's awesome, Spidra. Good for you on assertiveness.
Not Cooking While Hungry is why I have Schwan's. He came to my door with a truck, and now I have a new frozen Top Chef dinner to try. Yay!

Another variation on a theme:
Thank you for taking the time to write us, we appreciate hearing feedback from our customers regarding our products. I am sorry to hear that you feel the name Flosty Gritter is appalling. Here at lush we do have a very large commitment on a range of issues, racial toleration is one of them. We pride ourselves in being a multi-cultural company and employ a vast amount of employees from many different racial backgrounds. The Flosty Gritter has been a favorite of many of our customers for quite sometime. It was not our intention for the naming of the Flosty Gritter to be offensive, and apologize if it comes off as so.
Each of our wonderful products are developed in the UK, including the Flosty Gritter. I would be happy to forward on your email to our UK customer care team for further discussion.
I get a bingo square for the apology " if it comes off as" offensive, right? Maybe also one for "the Brits did it."

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yup, you totally do. I think everyone should follow up and say, yes, please do forward my email to the damned Brits. I also like the format of: I'm sorry you think the name is: ______, with whatever you wrote in there. Hee.
And my superconservative facebook friend just laughed, so yay, either she didn't intend it the way I read it, or I might have headed it off.

Yeah, that's the guy that NPR or APR interviewed (there was a call-in portion as well that featured some former prisoners and prison librarians). I was too lazy to look for a link, though.

That's the classic non-apology. Puts it back on you. Uhg.
