Very sad for his daughter, gah.

I am so with you on the wet socks. But I feel like if I end up with wet underwear, it is more likely some issue where I can't just take it off and put on new--often the pants AND underwear got wet for whatever reason (sitting in something? spill?). Socks I feel like it's more often feasible to take them off, if they got wet.

But the worst, by far, is having to put on a clammy cold damp bathing suit.

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

The Frontline special was fascinating. I felt angry on behalf of the kids for some portions, though.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Maybe not on purpose, but I think Cass could whip something up if we asked nicely.

I wasn't counting kicking one's self in the head... but you have a point.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Hey! That's ... a little too accurate, actually.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

You know what I love? High tech clothing that wicks moisture away from my body.

And not getting kicked in the head. Or the groin.

And, for the record, I didn't even admit it the other day when I was crouched on the floor and then suddenly - FOR NO REASON - flailing and fell on my ass.

It was like gravity just felt a sudden burst of whimsy. Spiteful whimsy.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

gravity does that. I tend to call that kind of fun - a personal earthquake.

Surprise ghost sex? I hadn't seen that macro'd yet.

Personal earthquake is better. But still embarrassing.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

And, for the record, I didn't even admit it the other day when I was crouched on the floor and then suddenly - FOR NO REASON - flailing and fell on my ass.

My diagnosis is the sudden onset of both Spazz and Klutz simultaneously. Rare but not unheard of. (cf., Adventures of Ginger)

Sadly, this means you are a Sputz. We'll be holding a telethon in your honor.
