I have an issue with the name Kai. I know, he's, like, Swedish or something [edit: Danish], but it makes it hard for me to take him seriously. /hasnameissues.

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

I actually know someone in real life by the name of Kai, originally from the Netherlands I think and he is a gigantic asshole.

Just gigantic.

I am hoping to meet a nicer Kai.

My friend's 12yo son is named Kai. He's the most laid-back adolescent ever.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I have known 3 people named Kai (two guys, one gal) and have uniformly liked them all. But I totally get the having name issues. I hate it when some asshole ruins a name for me. Like there was once a Denise that I hated so much it made me biased against the name for years. I finally gave it up, guess I met enough women named Denise who were actually nice or something.

Oh what am I saying? I'm sure it was David Duchovny's character on Twin Peaks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Hee!

ION, here is what I don't understand: When people take an enormous dump in the work toilet and don't check to see if they need to flush again. They need to flush again.

Hey msbelle. I was just looking at our health benefit info for next year and came across a statement that drug co-pays count towards your deductible but not towards the out-of-pocket max. Maybe that's what was going on with you?

The logic of that I can't comment on, because there is none.

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

There needs to be a public-awareness campaign about this. Like signs in the bathroom: "When you leave, make sure your poo is gone too."

Perhaps there could be a cartoon spokes-animal.

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

Our bathrooms DO have "please flush the toilet before you leave" signs in them. It depresses me that they are apparently necessary.

YES.

I'm sure nearly everyone flushes once, but sometimes it's just not enough.

I don't mind so much having to flush after a previous stall user so long as they managed to successfully target the bowl in the first place.
