Harmony ,'First Date'
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.
What I like is that this guy may have found the one way to unite the pro- and anti-Oxford comma factions. Whether you are for it or against it, you can find common ground in deciding that he is an idiot.
Exactly!!! I did interview someone last week who didn't know the term but understood when I said "serial comma" and she had an opinion about it.
It would also concern me that he doesn't know what a semi-colon is? Weird.

Yes!!! Even more concerning was that he came off as being a narcissistic jackass.
I don't believe I'd be able to go on with the interview after that, Lisah. I'd have done a Dawn "Get out! Get out!"
"And we're done here." crumples up resume into a ball and tosses it in the wastebasket.

I have such a crush on him
You guys! I am adulting like a FUCKING PRO today ( qualifier being I am TCBing my personal shit while at work instead of working, BUT STILL!). I have renewed car registration, made appt at tire place for lunch, coordinated with coworkers to follow me over and bring me back, emailed for appt at mechanic for bigger car issues (car is at 108800 and has not been looked at for at least 2 years aside from oil and inspection), and made an appt with therapist for TONIGHT (there was a cancellation). HELL YEAH! I swear if I could do my taxes today at work, I would.
Actually I bet I could start them. Should look at that.
Now to get some work work off my desk.
Go msbelle! Awesome!
MsBelle go forth and continue kicking ass!
Ha! My BFF Jasmine wrote this adorable piece for the Toast. [link]
Go you, Rebecca!
I am at the other end of the spectrum today. I am still nekkid from my shower. There was no coffee this morning, and I'm working on day 2 of no sleep (day 1 was caused by having to get work done before bed and again before others woke up the next morning; day 2 was caused by ill-timed insomnia). I failed in my attempt to not yell this morning and it set me into a shame spiral that is still making me weep. I have only taken care of a couple simple things by email and I am feeling overwhelmed by life. I will go knock out a couple more of those simple email tasks then go throw myself a little pity party to celebrate.
Can you spare yourself a nap today? Because I vote nap.
