It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Oh no, Dana. Here's some safe-effective-ideas-ma.

In other fire news, a Fresno man, who was house-sitting for his parents, decided to blow-torch some bl*ck w*d*w jillifonts.

It did not end well.

Today, we have a smoke detector beeping because of low batteries. We don't have a ladder tall enough to reach it. No idea how this is going to work out.

If you have a sporting goods store nearby, you could buy an assault rifle. They are pretty effective at silencing electronics.

I said "safe-effective-ideas-ma," Gud.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Bang on it with a broom handle?

Pretty sure we have to switch out the battery. I need an extendable robot arm.

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

This is 2018, surely you can get an extendable robot arm delivered by drone.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Maybe I just need a drone.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's Halloween at work today, which is our favorite day. The ringleader in my area is surprised that people are reacting so politically to our theme, The Handmaid's Tale. Which is hilarious to me.

Blessed be the fruit.

DOJ has a man from Florida in custody for the bombings.

EDIT: Now they're saying he's arrested.

Crisis averted. It's a fire alarm upstairs, in one of the bedrooms. Much lower ceilings.
