Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I heard that this morning -- it was very interesting.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Thanks Frank! The second step he has to do he does at home - it's tests or something that they sent him.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Listed under random: Have you all seen Kanye West's video for Can't Tell? [link] It's so made of the awesome. As are the comments. It's just so... random.

Oh, Galifinakis! So awesome.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is this different from your question a while back? I thought I'd accidentally clicked on a closed natter or something.

Yes it is.

I think.

I can't see the video, but the comments are ...odd.

Happy birthday, dear Kat. I promise I won't sing that.

Obesity is contagious.

Can I blame my fatass cat (as opposed to the fact I really do need to exercise more)?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Grr. I was supposed to have an interview yesterday. They called in the morning and postponed it today. Now they have called again to change the location (to a location rather less convenient for me). I am not impressed right now.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Well, I'm leaving on Wednesday. Not ideal timing for getting friends to help!

I feel Emily's pain. Sadly, I am on the opposite side of the country from her, but I am moving on Tuesday. (Not to Virginia.) I feel that I deserve an infinite time-expanding device, as well as some steroids.

Not to mix two conversations excessively.

Hey, since this company has dicked me around, and since I'm now having a job interview in a Starbucks by the airport, can I wear dress pants instead of a skirt?

I'd say so. Man, that might make me leery.
