Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Desperately want to go home.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have a friend who goes by Becky. My aunt has always been called Becka.

I'll answer to Jess or Jessica, never Jessie.

I have a co-worker who goes by his middle name (so his corporate email displays as Billy Bob Smith, but he always goes by Bob), and there is another person we work with who simply *cannot* figure out that "Billy" is actually "Bob" and that they are not two separate people.

Question: Do I want to go to a Superb Owl party if I don't care anything about football, but I want to force myself to be more social and let people from the neighborhood know that I still exist?

Will there be good food there and other people who don't care much about the game? Those would be my criteria for going to a Superb Owl party.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I kinda want people to come here, more for mocking than actual - ooooh, football - but I don't want to go elsewhere.

I will be watching the Owl from the airport, hoping the Seahawks somehow win again just to prove a point about Northwest teams.

Yes, it's this weekend.

I'm grateful we haven't been invited anywhere. Which means TCG can watch it while I read a book and occasionally check in on the commercials. TCG only watches 1 or 2 of the football games a year, which I am also grateful for.

Because books.

it's "ess-ay," precisely how it's spelled.

That's how I explained it to Sara!

I forgot to send interview~ma, though. But I'm glad it went well!

I don't even know who's playing in it. I assume Seattle due to SA's post.
