I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

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
Aw. Tell K I had a long conversation with Gracie about Thanksgiving, and all about squash with brown sugar and butter, and yummy mased potatoes.
She was all, "hm. Tell me more about this squash you speak of."

I have pimped The Book at Whedonesque, and lured my mother-in-law into reading it. It's been a full weekend.

I mostly find Nadal annoying but he plays so well and today's match was a total nail biter.
And check out the BBC's amusing commentary on the Murray/Jankovic vs. Bjorkman/Molik mixed doubles finals.

New Yorker, child of one New Yorker and one New Englander here. I generally say an-tee, but sometimes switch over to ahn-tee without really noticing. Same thing with bath and bahth.
