If you think round's funny

Chubacabra - how one might deal with these situations in real life is not always how one can deal with them online.

I don't know if this helps, but I always find saying "I do not wish to play with you" an effective response to strife in both real and fake worlds.

Anyone who still mistakes the Muppet Show as being strictly for kids should look at this show

The muppets were my first tv love. I have a picture my mom took, from when I was two years old, watching them with the biggest smile all over me. Obviously, I didn't understand a word they were saying in English. Even more obviously, I couldn't read the subtitles. And even more obviously, I had no cultural connection to what was going on in front of me, at all. And still, I was completely in love. It would be very interesting to watch that show as an adult.

Nilly, that's very funny. You were probably just thinking " Noisy bouncing fuzzies!" which, really...that hold great appeal at that age. Hey, it explains Elmo, for crying out loud.

Doesn't explain the nephew's obsession with Santa, though. That remains a mystery.

For the mental torture or just the child support?

Uh. Yes? Um. Something horrified and witty goes here?

Chubacabra, you understand how the block feature works, correct? We encourage people not to announce when they use it. I think that is how your suggestion might be taken.

sara, I have no way to explain the level of my in-loved-ness at that age, other than that. I loved "Little House on the Prairie" around that age as well, but with that, my mom was sitting next to me translating and explaining what was going on. My mom says I loved Kermit for ever, even without understanding a word.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Kat, Can you come visit me and bring me cake after you are done at Robin's?

So I should find someone else to kick me in the head?

I'm so sorry about that. I wish I'd been able to address your needs in a timely fashion.

That's okay. I live very close to a karate studio, so I can probably make do. Won't be quite the same, of course.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thanks to Kermit, I always thing the Lime in the Coconut song goes, "DOCTOR! Can you cure this flipper ache?"

Kat, Can you come visit me and bring me cake after you are done at Robin's?

Sadly. no. You live to far for that.

Next up? buttercream.
