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.

My Mom just told me I'm not supposed to talk tomorrow about my nephew’s visit to the psychiatric ward, which I didn’t know about, because nobody has talked to me about it.

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

because as your family already knows, not talking about things is so healthy. I LOVE YOU SCOLA, YOU CAN COME TO MY HOUSE FOR ANY AND ALL HOLIDAYS.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Last year, somebody did use tear gas at a Black Friday sale. It went over about as well as you'd think.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Have there ever been more screaming children in one place? Doubtful.

Eat at a Chuck E. Cheese's to compare for certain. I maintain that instead of Cerberus the gates of Hell are guarded by a big gray mouse.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Chanukah started! Happy Chanukah! (We haven't actually done anything for Chanukah yet. My sister is out getting the turkey for tomorrow, my mom's taking a nap, and my dad isn't home from work yet. But the sun set, so that means it's Chanukah now.)

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

Happy Chanukah, Hil! Still about half an hour to go here...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy Chanukah, y'all!

For YEARS I kept a text on my phone from msbelle (right??) about how Chuck E. Cheese was the 7th circle of hell.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Well, (1) that makes it easy for you to not talk about it, and (2) YIKES.

hip deep in pie

Happy Chanukah!!

My friend David is now my most favourite person on the planet. He just sent me a copy of Blue Nights signed by Joan Didion. He`s only been holding onto for a year and a half without telling me. (He interviewed her.) I will even forgive him how long it took to send it to me.

I still regret not going down to watch the interview, but this makes up for it.

Oy vey, Tom. Oy vey.

Wow, that's cool, Sue!
