We need to add that to shit we need to take to the patent office.

If we're gonna do a patent, I want the Mood Coffee Machine. Instead of recommendations based on the weather, you put your finger on a pad and it dispenses a beverage based on your mood.

You're very anxious today! Have some green tea.

You'd have to be able to individually program it. For me, it would be:

You're very anxious today! I'm making you a triple expresso. Try not to kill anyone.

For god's sake! Your BCC (Blood Caffeine Content) is 100%! Try drinking some freakin' water!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

One of my many bosses gets all aggravated whenever I personally address an envelope instead of printing it.

I think it's nicer to get a hand addressed letter. He thinks it's too casual. WHATEV.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

::cough::Jessehasmeblocked::cough::

Do not! That's what I get for skimming. Or, I was distracted by the stuff about kissing.

I have that same issue at times, Allyson, and I'm on your side. "Personal!" "Unprofessional!" WhatEV.

Your handwriting is prettier.

In reality, I'd vary depending on the type of correspondence. If I was trying to establish or reinforce a personal business relationship, I'd do handwriting (if mine didn't suck.) Seems more like you made an effort for that person, instead of hitting print from your address book. Random official boring formish letter? Print it.

Nonwork? Whatever the hell works. My friends aren't reading anything into the envelope.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I like getting letters with handwritten addresses on the evelopes. It's a lot harder to mistake for junkmail. It doesn't matter how pretty the handwriting is--just as long as the post office can make it out, I'm good.

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

Lee for validation, I got them for my then-14 y.o and then-9 y.o last year and they were a big hit with both genders (plus my 40-something brother loved his set too!)

Thanks Dawn!

Lee, that's a dangerous site. So many tempting things: the Seven Deadly Sins Wristbands, "What Would a Pirate Do?" Spin Folder, Jane Austen action figures...

Seriously.

If we're gonna do a patent, I want the Mood Coffee Machine. Instead of recommendations based on the weather, you put your finger on a pad and it dispenses a beverage based on your mood.

Can it have a setting for "do I have to choke a bitch"?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, I just watched last night's Without A Trace, and it was all about resonances in Viv's life, but what about Martin? Why is my memory of the characters' histories better than that of the writers?

Cindy, I can unconfuse you!

Really? I'm surprised because Jensen Ackles was a beautiful child on Days of Our Lives. He was beautiful the way (very young Elijah Wood was beautiful, although, I think Elijah's beauty, except for his eyes, has mostly faded, where Ackles has gotten even more striking).

But first I have to agree, and add that by Dark Angel, he was crossing from beautiful to attractive (they're not the same thing in my world, and younger, he kind of fell into Uncanny Valley turf for me), and that in SPN, he's hit Dear Goodness, How is He So HOT? levels of appeal. It's the crinkles around the eyes and that lower lip thing he does. I can't explain beyond that.

Sorry, Plei. I meant Not!Dean. I confuse myself.

ita meant Paddywack (thank you, whichever person first started calling Jared Padalecki that, for those of us who find spelling it hard), who played Dean on Gilmore Girls, and now plays Sam on SPN. It can get pretty Who's On First.
