So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Yikes, Scrappy! Hope they get him declotted quickly. My neighbor had that (and is fine now.)

Jury duty survived. I was in the first group sent first thing to a courtroom. The number of lawyers from high-powered firms did not bode well. Voir dire went on until late in the afternoon, pretty much no one getting dismissed for conflicts or whatever. We were informed that this looked like a 3-4 week trial, it was an asbestos case. Erg. Finally they picked the six primary and six alternates and believe you me, I was relieved when they passed my number. I would have been completely fucked at work, since the next 3-4 weeks are going to be doozies. And I think my boss might've cried. Left the courtroom at 3:30, dismissed for the day at 4. Done. Until next year.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Scrappy, all of my ~ma to you and J.

or tall, British, and with a side of possible brooding. (See: Christopher Lee, David Bowie, Peter Murphy, and that guy I married).

Grant Morrisson *cough*

Gawd, I hate Trump. And it seems like I won't be able to escape him for the next while, dammit.

He's "stepped down" from driving the pace car at the Indy 500. So relieved.

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

It doesn't matter if you are black or yellow or brown or normal!

Accidental racism. I think.

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

I lost all my playlists and most of my rankings in iTunes. Unclear if I deleted a file by mistake off my computer or if neighbor boy screwed things up while on the computer with E. I am PO'd regardless. over 12000 songs.

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

Not all of those are accidental racism. You say "black or yellow or brown or normal" and you have some unexamined shit up in there. Most of the rest are just accidentally funny, though. Or plain...who let that cereal box thing go through? Come on!

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

That sucks, msbelle. I used to live in fear of losing that file before I set up Time Machine to do automatic backups.

The file is now called 'iTunes Library', right?

Wait, it's 'iTunes Music Library.xml'. Or maybe both.

Same people who greenlighted Moolatta?

Those were not so accidental. The rest are like when I realize the costume shop has bins labeled "Black Men's Underwear" and "White Men's Underwear", and it is awkward.

I was at a diversity event today that was a screening of "A SIngle Man" with a discussion afterward that seriously involved our dean saying that "I have 2 gay friends".
