this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Respond to someone on FB about red meat leading to strokes by asking "Does the stroke come with bacon?"

PLEASE DO THIS.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

She's a very a passionate vegan, and I respect her right to eat what she wants, and to share what she believes on FB. But it mostly made me want a cheeseburger.

Punishingly Intricate

Yeah, Dana, people defending a teacher beating up a student is revolting. And, also, is such an insult to teachers who can handle shit appropriately!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

People are defending that teacher?!? I can't even.

They're bemoaning the good old days when teachers were allowed to control their classrooms.

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

Even whe corporal punishment was the norm at my schools, it was spanks on the rear, NOT slaps to the head like in that video. People are horrible.

ION, ate lunch, now sleepy.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

A lot of people quote the "spare the rod and spoil the child" ... which is still strongly supported by some.

I'm always reminded of when, in my teens, they started introducing laws against child abuse and people were screaming that if they weren't free to beat their children said children would run wild and be criminals. Never, of course, acknowledging a difference between discipline and abuse.

I am trying to give myself a pep talk à la Stephen Colbert's, "Get it together, Colbert!" I'm not sure it's working.

I took today off (convention recuperation day), but I have still adulted, because I wrote the first draft of an incredibly difficult email to someone. And I may drag myself off the couch and go unearth the floor in front of my wardrobe in the bedroom. (It's currently hidden under skirts and petticoats.)
