Oh, but I thought you meant, they had worked so hard and they had earned it. That depressed me when I thought it, because I feel like we all work so hard, and it never happens for any of us.
But yes! Totally envious of her.
Simon: You are my beautiful sister. River: I threw up on your bed. Simon: Yep. Definitely my sister.

Holy shit! Red Sox cough it up in the 9th!
This shit's bananas.

Oh.
Emmett is throwing the recycling around the kitchen.
He has just learned what it really means to be a Red Sox fan.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I could be into the Dixie Hart show just for Cress Williams. And the prospect of an interracial relationship, unless they neuter him.

Wow, my stomach was in knots over those games and none of them were MY team. At the moment it looks like the A's will be the last game to finish tonight, not that it matters a lick.

Are there books more depressing than The Road ? Like, ever?
The Road is actually on the uplifting side for a Cormac McCarthy novel.

Matters to Gio who's never pitched a shut-out, but came within one out before.
Holy shit. I cannot believe the Braves and Red Sox both lost in such excruciating fashion and Tampa Bay came back from 7-0 in the 8th to win it. Two fucking homers by Evan Longoria! Stud!

Oh what the fuck? They won't let Gio take the 9th? You dipshits he's got all off-season to rest up. Let him finish the game.
Pfah.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I've been stewing over this, and it shouldn't bother me this much, so I thought I'd ask for other opinions.
Below is a G+ thread started by my cousin's husband, who graduated college not long ago, is working on his Master's degree, and just this semester started teaching civics at a local private high school.
Mike - What a day from hell.
Wayne - You have no idea! Well, maybe you do...
Mike - Well, it definitely could have been worse, but Dante did say there are levels of hell...this was an upper hell sort of day, closer to the surface. But still: people, them's bitches, man.
David - "L'enfer, c'est les autres."
Mike - @David- Bless you?
I thought I was being sympathetic, clever, and funny. Was I wrong?
From his response, I fear that he a) didn't recognize the quote, and b) didn't even think to look it up.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Ah, I didn't recognize it in French, but then I Googled it. Perhaps English would have been better received.
