That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

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.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

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.

Because books.

I like to think of it as an Amy solution.

Solution, revolution ...

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

I don't need the last word--I just need the most heavily weighted one.

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?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

These things must be done before I can practice my guitar.

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

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

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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh god why can't I get up and do these things?

I am having that day, too. With an extra-large helping of crankypants.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

There's a difference between Argument From Authority and citing the opinions of experts, though. If its an argument about astrophysics, "Because Neil DeGrasse Tyson says so" is a perfectly cromulent argument.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

No, I'm pretty sure "Because Neil DeGrasse Tyson says so" wins most arguments. You underestimate the awesome power of Neil DeGrasse Tyson.
