See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

What now? How is that even remotely a problem?

Got me! Also, he's a big black guy. Which I suspect was a significant factor in the flight attendants' decision to call security.

Ooh, Allyson, that would be good!

re: OKGO and Muppets

That video made my fucking day. I'm going to have to bookmark it and watch it when I'm in a bad mood because I fucking loved it.

What I didn't like is the vocals on the song. OK Go's vocals are okay (no pun intended) for their style, but doesn't work on the song. This is a minor point given my level of enjoyment of the video.

I do really like a band with a sense of humor and creativity OK Go has that + more.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Aaaand an email came in from GM's Communications Manager (Western something or another).

They'll provide me with a loaner for at least a week.

Wow, right?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's a start, anyway.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I am so ready for a break from the heat - 10 day forecast, still no day under 100. That will be 4 days in the last 2 months under 100, and 3 of those 4 were officially 99.

Well, now, isn't that promising? What's the time-frame on getting the part and getting it installed? Will your local dealer install it for you?

Always Anti-fascist!

Allyson, if you don't get anywhere call a consumer reporter and/or tweet your story to Ed Schultz or someone(Rachel Maddow?) I got negged a few times. Although I'm not sure if one counts, because I told the guy his profile looked like crap, and shouldn't he be trying to win people over with it?(Which might have looked like a neg in its own right, but honestly? I really am sick of people not putting effort into these things.) But what made it a neg was that he wrote back "Are you always this friendly?" which I believe was intended to make me abase myself with ladyguilt about not captivating a stranger.
