Pink Collar is totally a thing -- the phrase goes back to the 70s, and it's pretty widely used/understood.
I'm not sure how old he is, but I heard him use the word 'newfangled' one time, so he's gotta be pretty far gone.

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

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm still at work because I'm going to a thing that starts at 7 and there's really no point in going home first. This means I can sit at my desk playing Tiny Death Star for the next half-hour, right?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I defy collars.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Timelies all!
I don't know if there's a collar category for lab work. (Lab coats come in many colors these days, and not all types have collars.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Crap, I can't decide if I want to go out tonight, or bail on my friends. I think going out will be better than not, but now that I am home, I just want to stay here! Ah well.
Also, it's too bad my mother and I have several opposite opinions about how to handle stuff at the hospital.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Also, it's too bad my mother and I have several opposite opinions about how to handle stuff at the hospital.
Ugh, I hate that kind of thing as I get all kinds of conflict avoidy at those moments and just defer, unless I think something is going to be a problem.

She actually agreed with me in the end about the specific situation, and we had a good talk in the car about the principles. I'm really glad I've been in my support group as long as I have, because I have heard so much about how different people handle things.

During all the coverage of the Kennedy assassination, I can't help thinking, "President Kennedy. Still dead."
Yes, I remember where I was.
