Well, apparently they are LEGALLY forbidden to be in the same room as each other without their lawyers present,
And yet still living together? Not great decision makers, I take it?
Yeah, we're building a race of frog-people. It's a good time

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

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
And yet still living together? Not great decision makers, I take it?
Yeah, they're still sharing a two-family house, going on over a year now. Technically the upstairs is a separate apartment so they're not *really* living together, but they can't agree on who should move out, so...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
rather than work this out between themselves (take shifts, let the parent who has custody that day attend by themselves), they are throwing it on us, the hosts, to tell them how to figure this out.
Oy. It's going to be a long life for them. I was going to say a long time until their kid is out of the house, but there are still Major Life Events children want both of their parents at.

There's the LDB. I had a feeling that would happen when I told my co-worker I didn't mind her playing Xmas music loud enough for me to hear. It's the Temptations - not bad.

I may be taking my LDB avoidance a bit far. My car radio station announced that someone had requested Bob Segar's Little Drummer Boy in a few minutes. I actually started calculating a quicker route home so I could be out of the car before it played.
It worked, by the way. Still LDB free.

Does your car radio only play one station? Because switching channels works too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have relatives that lived together after the divorce because the house was such prime real estate, and they could never agree who'd get it.
They were both gay (man and woman), so this wasn't the start of something odd.

I, um, haven't set the other buttons. And random button pushing generally lands me on country music or Katy Perry. There are Drummer Boy bombs just waiting for me to change the station.

Oh, gosh, the saxophone and piano in Gerry Rafferty's Baker Street--sounds like college "romance".

Sheeit, One of my coworkers just called me--he'd been laid off, just like my former manager (few tears there). But I thought he was locked in because of his integral role in deploying software for the workstation most of our clients use.
But no--they've decimated the department, and let people go I don't understand.
Good luck, former employer! t /dont mean that
