Is that a shitty present? I can't tell, because I love it when people give me food.
No, that's a great present. Homemade AND delicious!
I have finesse! I have finesse coming out of my bottom!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Laura, as an employee, I gotta say that bonuses rock.
Sophia, that really sucks, for all the reasons you enumerated. Enough so that if I were you I'd almost be tempted to call an anonymous whistleblower line (if your uni has one? All I know is that mine does, but I don't know how common it is) to talk about it.
Steph, sounds good to me. Granola is one of those things that I only ever eat a tiny bit at a time and so never buy and never have on hand; a decent size in a nice jar sounds fab.
ICompletelyON, WTF, The Atlantic? The combined fail of the article and the comments is horrific (the comments are edging out the actual article, but not by much -- she sets the bar pretty high by approvingly quoting both Charles Murray and Christina Hoff Sommers). I'm totally gobsmacked that The Atlantic even posted this embarrassment. WTseriouseverlovin'F?

not your mom's socks.
Jim C. Hines and Scalzi are doing a cover pose-off for charity. Hilarity has ensued: [link]

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
JZ, I think this comment sums up my thoughts perfectly:
this article is BONKERS, and no amount of classy three-asterisk transitions can change that.

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
This is our "Holiday Offering" to the housekeeping staff.
Holiday offering is definitely a skeevy way of putting it. Very "alms for the poor".
Wish me "get through this day" ma. I had a come to Jesus with an employee last week but in the ensuring days I've discovered that she's fucked this project up way more than I even realized at the time, so now I get to go in and let her go today and try to salvage this critical project. And I just locked myself out of the house. FML.

Jessica, AH HA HA, with a side of bitter tears. If this thing doesn't end up on Shakesville as today's "This Is So The Worst Thing You're Going To Read All Day," I shall be severely disappointed.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
In what is wrong with people news, last night when I went to bed, I had a cheap version of this [link] on my lawn, but this morning it's not there anymore.
