A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

I have all kinds of geeky t-shirts. Seriously. This is one I wear around town all the time.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

tommyrot,

that graph is CRAZY. The folks in India are NO JOKE. They either believe that people are basically good or they don't. That was the craziest bipolar distribution I have ever seen. Makes me wonder if there is an error.

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

Oh god. Stomach is filled with angry hornets.

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

Yeah, I was wondering that. Maybe folks in India were just asked a yes/no question?

You could swallow a spider to catch the hornets....

I put on a black skirt and a teal top this morning and was looking for a cardigan, and then remembered that the skirt is part of a suit. So I wore the matching jacket too and therefore I am in a suit today.

Coincidentally enough, I'm having lunch with a former coworker who might be willing to hire me (if I'm willing to apply).

My subconscious keeps better track of my schedule than I do.

Yeah, maybe India got the abbreviated version? That's funny. There are no grey areas in India! Or, for this chart, yellow and seafoam green.

I've got nothing for the why on French cows and American jazz.

I use mouthguard which was developed by a dentist for use during surgery to protect teeth from intubation injuries.

If only I had been wearing that before they broke my tooth.

Made me smile: I finally made my neighbor's e-mail work and she gave me muffins.

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

How nice are people in Rwanda? Shame about, you know, conditions.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

The phrase in the article I'm editing that keeps making me laugh and laugh: "prophylactic prevention." WHAT OTHER TYPE OF PREVENTION IS THERE.

I really want to edit it to read "prophylactic prevention taken ahead of time."
