You have the magic of the oil.
I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

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
There was a piece in the Times making that argument this morning.

Wait, duh, I think I saw it off your facebook feed. In my defense, I've slept about four hours out of the last 60.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
She seems to think that I should have my kids celebrate Christmas, including Santa, because otherwise their little hearts will be broken by being left out of the magic.
Does she get the concept of there being different religions, and that, although Christmas may seem like a mostly a-religious holiday to her (I'm assuming she's Christian in some sense, non-Christians don't pimp for Santa) because of its broad cultural assimilation, it's still not a holiday you would celebrate, because you aren't Christian?
And I already know the answer is no, but I needed to type that out anyway.

You should probably also lie to them about the Easter Bunny and give them chocolate on Easter. Because otherwise they'll feel left out.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Also lie to them on Independence Day and tell them that America won, and that you aren't all secretly ruled by a cabal of Richard Branson, Sir Ian McKellen and the Duchess of Kent.

Now tagless for your comfort.
There are some people who just assume Jews will roll with the ever-encroaching cultural creep of Christmas, because somehow, kids are being deprived of the magic of Santa and feel left out.

Thrive to spite them
People. I swear.
Although, I did have headway on my irritating computer issue. I remembered my desktop that I have been meaning to take in for recycling, but haven't. I thought- I'll hook it up and do a speed test and see what happens.
What do you know, hardwired into my modem it gets the speeds I am supposed to get. So I called work and talked to the one Geek Squad agent who hasn't had his hands on my computer and he said it could be a motherboard issue (even though they replaced it) or it could be a software issue and he had some ideas of tests to run. So I'm taking it BACK tomorrow with a note for him to deal with. And if the software issues don't get fixed then he'll send it out again and see if the Geek Squad City will fix it and if not. Then, um. We'll see.

Well, I have heard of some kids being very jealous of bar mitzvahs, so it goes both ways, but....no. Just no. Good grief.
