The Leafs lost? Oh my god! That's one of the seven signs of the apocalypse! No, wait - that's business as usual. Carry on.

Wow, 'Ouise! Go you! I have job quitting fantasies. But they all involve lottery wins or the sudden deaths of heretofore unknown rich aunts for whom I was secretly the favourite.
I hope Helen is feeling better today.

A person's concepts should exceed their vocabulary, or what's a metaphor?
Go Ouise! Better to be happy than rich.
Megen, you could do worse than beauty school. After all, that's where Chuck Berry got his diploma.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
Thanks! Making the decision was such a relief. I don't know what the schedule will be, especially since my boss is currently on vacation, so I can't talk to him about it. Still, I can start making plans. Yay!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Did you really say "It's wrong to lie, except to the bourgeoisie" when you were two, Ouise?

Yes, I did. To my grandmother! She took my over to my mother and said "Do you know what this baby just said?" My mother was less shocked, since she and my father were who I'd learned that stuff from. I had an interesting early childhood.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'm impressed. I was nowhere near that much of a radical when I was two -- I spent that year in the kind of existential dread and ennui that pretty much precludes political action, and my great quote of the year was "I'm bored because I'm going to die."
Radical political awareness had to wait until I was three.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
At two I could pick Mao Tse Tung and Fidel Castro out of a lineup, but I wasn't sure why they both liked red so much.

Snerk, amych.
At two I could pick Mao Tse Tung and Fidel Castro out of a lineupMe too! Well, Mao and Trudeau, actually. My parents would point at the picture of Mao and say "Who's that?" and I would respond "Chai'Mao". Then they would point at the picture of Trudeau and ask "Who's that?" and I'd say "Lackey Trudeau," which was, naturally, short for "Trudeau, lackey of US imperialism."
