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.

My thought exactly!

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.

Dear god I will join yall in the light people on fire campaign. Ugh.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Ugh, snow. Of course the roads I take to work weren't plowed this morning. I should be thankful it only took 15 more minutes than usual to get to work, but bleah.

Well, we've got a windchill warning of -25 to -40F going until Thursday afternoon, so I need to swap my winter coat out for the one rated for -50F and pull out the long underwear. I think I'll bring my laptop home with me tonight just in case I choose to work from home tomorrow.
