Weirdly, I was just thinking about the David problem and Knut the Difficult.
We now also have an Amy problem.
No, no, no, sir. No more chick pit for you. Come on.

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

Because books.
Pfft. There is no Amy *problem*.
I'm starved. And my hair is much darker than I thought it would be, not that those two things are related.
It's also super super short, though, and I love it.

I like to think of it as an Amy solution.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, we've had an Amy problem for quite a while.
I'm not gonna lie, I Appeal To Authority a fair amount too. But that's usually just before I Shut This Shit Down and Pirouette Up On Out Of This Bitch. I don't need the last word--I just need the most heavily weighted one.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
But did you know that there are wooden watches out there for people with nickel allergies? Fascinating. [link]
The stem on that watch would still get me. I had to get a titanium watch to avoid the allergy. I have titanium frames for my glasses, too.

I get it Dana. And now I have an ear worm. The amys always seemed diggerentiated to me because they are Amy, Aimee, amyth, and amych.
ETA. Brass Monkey is my favorite.

Me too. I so often lose, though.
I need to get up and go to the grocery store. I need to do laundry. These things must be done before I can practice my guitar.
Oh god why can't I get up and do these things?

Did you see the 100 Riffs Brief History of Rock and Roll? So fun.

I make no claim to winning in terms of proving my point or convincing the other party, but as far as "Okay, fine, can we just stop?" that happens more than zero times.
