Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I'm bugged by the cat-shaving. Because shaved cats can be some fugly animals.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The problem with the social capital concept is, as you point out, that it's not uniform.

That's not a problem. As noted way upthread, the point is that it isn't uniform. Your social capital bank with me is different than it is with Kristin, because I've spent more time with you, and I've seen you drive people to the airport at 5:30 in the morning.

Shaved maybe, but naturally hairless I've grown to like from the Sphinx cat in the Mission bookstore.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

and, really, all I know about Sean is that he eats food out of tubes. I mean, ewww.

(Robin, I was pretty upset with X myself. Not that it actually happened. Because it didn't.)

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

but that nobody called her on it.

I would also like to point out that this is not entirely accurate.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

I once lived next to a guy who raised Mexican Hairless dogs.

Poster pups for fugly, poor things.

David, you just made a post about a cat.

I felt you should know.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Hairless cats are soft, but creepy.

Moldy tube rice is NOT FOOD.

(Yeah, that's all I got.)

What is even happening?

I would also like to point out that this is not entirely accurate.

Trudy, I remember this the way Sean does. In fact, I remember (or have created a memory of) telling off both sides, because I was disgusted more by the fallout in the thread from people who weren't Jen and Allyson, than by either Jen's comment, or Allyson's.
