Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Oh, she knows.

She tried to help out a crow in her backyard that had been attacked by an animal. She got it out and to the humane society but she couldn't walk though yard to her door without cover for a week, with all the other crows squawking and swooping at her.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am also with le nub- when you gotta poop, you gotta poop. I wonder who these people are that the author thinks are going to a restaurant bathroom and CHOOSING to poop.

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

There's a sake jasmine pearl recipe in this new cookbook. I can't wait to try that...

That does sound lovely, ita. Oo, I should bring you over some ice cream one of these days from our new favorite ice cream shop. They have loads of exotic flavors, but they are smart enough to know that ice cream is comfort food first and foremost.

I just took care of two onerous tasks, both insurance-related. Can I have a cookie now?

(Nevermind, no cookies in the house. Oh but there is some lemon cake!)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

They don't call it a murder of crows just for giggles.

Art Crawl!!!

I just read a tweet that said that Ramon Dominguez picked up the ride on Tiger Walk (for the Preakness) because Kent Desormeaux failed a breathalyzer.

I know people who think it's wrong to poop anywhere but in your own home. I think I was in my 20s before I met one and I finally understood the true meaning of anal retentive.

Always Anti-fascist!

I don't feel comfortable with it myself, but that's probably more about my special circumstances than trying to be a fragrant flower who doesn't defecate.

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

I also want to know what planet he lives on where it's more polite to put your phone on the table than in your pocket. Unless it's a business lunch where everyone wants to look like their boss/client might call at any moment, put the goddamn phone away.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I know people who think it's wrong to poop anywhere but in your own home.

I had a roommate once who was like this -- she left a party more than once to go home to poop because she refused to poop anywhere someone might come in after her and realize she pooped. And on a weekend camping trip, she didn't poop the whole weekend because she refused to poop in the woods. Pretty sure her stomach hurt by the end of the weekend.
