How did we get to the point that Scott Baio is not only speaking at the RNC, but is interviewed on MSNBC the next day? OTOH, she's completely taking him apart about a sexist tweet he posted.
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.

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

That's hit the point of absurdity for me. Like, did Kafka script this? WTF is Chachi doing speaking at the RNC?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Charles at least was in charge of something -- Antonio Sabato, Jr????

The status is NOT quo.
Oh Steph. I'm sorry. It's a year of woe. I wish we could make it better, but all we can do is be here. I'm thinking about you both.
Someone must have googled "good speeches by first ladies" and gone from there. Like when kids just copy stuff into their papers by accident. Such an easy mistake!
This. Speaking as a teacher, that is exactly what this feels like. The changing of a few key words and rephrasing is classic student plagiarism stemming from not knowing where to start.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
When the speakers were introducing Baio they kept reminding people he was Chachi so they knew who tf he was.

Steph, this year has sucked so bad for you and Tim. I'm so sorry!

Apparently, Melania Trump's fake college degree did not cover the topic of plagiarism.
Which seems fitting, in a way.

Here's something amusing (to me) illustrating why placement of adjectives is important: I am editing something and have NO idea from context whether "several small animal studies" means several small studies conducted in animals, or several studies conducted in small animals, like mice.
I kind of DO wish I had gotten to edit Pres. Obama's article. I bet HE used adjectives properly.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
placement of adjectives
This reminds me of Baxter Black being described as "a former large animal veterinarian."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I am not trying to defend Baio at the RNC because that's ridiculous but then someone I followed on Twitter used an ethnic slur to express her disgust at what he was sayin which is just as annoying.
Teppy, I'm so sorry. ALS is terrible. My paternal grandmother had it. 2016 seriously owes you some goodness.
