Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

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

As I suspected, reheating my beautifully cooked shrimp in the microwave does not preserve the perfection of the texture. Not ruined by any means, but not as good.

I have a friend who has political views that are pretty much completely opposite to the rest of our social group, and he has been known to complain that he can't discuss politics with us because "we're all dismissive and mean."

I know, I know. Expecting pesky facts instead of logical fallacies and vomited up Best Ofs from the Fox News comments sections. So mean.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I have one person on my fb feed posting against the ruling. None of her own writing, mind you, but posts from groups like Concerned Conservative Women and Defenders of Crapass Backwardness or some shit.

I am sure there are a lot more people who disagree with the ruling than her, but they either have me filtered from those posts or are keeping their pieholes shut.

I used to think the nastiest man in politics was Jesse Helms. He's dead, and now it's Antonin Scalia. (Yes, I considered Cheney and Kissinger.)

Cheney and Kissinger are actual war criminals, so I'd give them the edge there.

I used to think the nastiest man in politics was Jesse Helms.

Here's my conversational showstopper: I saw Helms without a shirt on.

Kissinger and Cheney certainly qualify as evil, but both have sort of a coldness to them that doesn't make "nastiest" to me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My day at work has been a roller coaster of good and annoying, but now I have a beer, so that's nice. The flip side of that is it was from a going-away party for a colleague I like very much!

I think nasty needs to be closer to off the rails, saying things that are completely whacked out.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My gay ex-boyfriend M.* just called to discuss recent events. He and his long-term boyfriend J. the fashion designer are not getting married, but are most happy that they COULD, and they are buying a terrific and terrifically expensive place together, in Queens. He is appropriately terrified.

*He's actually gay ex-boyfriend #2, so he has to be distinguished from #1, who is W.
