It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

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

Does FB have a dismiss button? The one good thing that came out of the gawker redesign is that when someone said something that really annoys you, you can dismiss their reply. It disappears from your inbox (where otherwise everything would stay forever) and it disappears from the thread where they wrote it.

It's sufficiently difficult to notice if you've been dismissed that you'd really have to be working it (reading the site not logged in, etc) that it doesn't tend to escalate, and although you can't MARCIE it's a reminder that arguments don't have to devolved into "last word" wrestling matches.

Is this going to be another case of "I remember when"? I get that whenever I look at Deb Grabien's Kincaid Chronicles.

Because books.

Received and replied, JZ!

In other news, I have a serious Goldfish addiction. And I really like biting into their little smiles.

Heh.

No, I'm imagining some of the writers, actually. You don't start a sentence with a numeral, people. Why don't they know this?
