I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

Kalshane - one thing he is dead wrong on is pensions.

1) Public workers get salaries lower than private for comparable jobs.

2) During bubble public worker pensions were raided cause it was claimed the gov did not need put so much in due to high rates of returns on investments. That is why pensions are in trouble not cause they are too generous.

3) If pensions are not to be held sancrosanct how about other debts - like govt bonds? I'm not saying not paying bonds would be a good idea. All sorts of reasons why it would be a bsd one. But then why so casual about pensions, which after all are debts bor work already done. I note nobody says "wee we paid public workers too much over the years so lets go into their bank acounts and take past salary back. Because that would be too obvious. Hitting pensions is the same thing.

4) BTW if all the states had not made all the damn tax cuts over the years they would not have problems now.And when wotshisface gives a california example, California is like the poster child for stupid tax cuts over the course of decades. (Even though I have not live in CA for decades, I still think of myself as a California boy, and was there when all that shit started.

Actually, they get lower rates for higher-ranked positions, but higher rates for entry-level and low-skill positions.

Holy cow. Makes our were-monkey look like a T-ball player by comparison.

Good lord, who has TIME for all that? (Especially if she's actually a med student like it claims) I mean, I barely have time for my actual internet life, and there's only one of me, and it's all real so I don't have to worry about mixing up my lies or anything. Eesh.

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

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

What meara said. I hardly have time for the one FB account.

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

I went shopping during my lunch break. I lost track of time and did not leave time to get food. Also, the watch I bought is broken so I have to take it back. Waste of time and now I am really hungry and thus craving junk food.

Maybe alternate personalities take turns keeping track of their own respective internet identities? I don't know, I can't even keep my login names/passwords straight now that I have a bunch to different websites.

And given how old she is now, wouldn't she have been, like, thirteen or something when the whole thing began?

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

Does being a med student mean she has easy access to speed or meth? I honestly can't imagine any other way she would have time for all of this!
