Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

I have meditated. I'm probably not going to light anyone on fire at the moment.

I will cover the lighting people on fire part, as it was just confirmed today that the Sales & Marketing department of the parent company just cut a week off our deadline. Surprise, deadline is this coming Monday!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Mine follow me to the bathroom and beg for part of my lunch.

You eat lunch in the bathroom?

DON'T JUDGE ME.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Certainly more civilized than spitting on the stairs.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You eat lunch in the bathroom?

Working from home really is different.

Out of curiosity, do any of you hold opinions on whether 4-digit numbers require commas?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

4-digit numbers require commas?

If they're not years, yes.

I got carded today, and the woman was surprised ("You look really young!") without actually registering that I was 46.

Oh ho ho.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Out of curiosity, do any of you hold opinions on whether 4-digit numbers require commas?

For years, my reaction is "whatever the client wants."

In spreadsheets I default to "Accounting" format because I like my decimals to line up, and commas, but if I am just typing a number in an e-mail, or in a cell with other text, say, I'm not sure I need to be consistent.
