OK, this caption for Miss India cracked me up:
If you're gonna be all tasteful and appropriate, Miss India, you might as well stay in your hotel room.
Bitch.
I'm very sorry if she tipped off anyone about your cunningly concealed herd of cows.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't like India's costume. I think it's too in the middle. Miss Norway decided to look normal, and I think she looks great.
I'm also partial to Miss Jamaica. Go home team!

I think sex-as-reward also implies that having sex is a chore, and a rather unpleasant one at that: "You do these unpleasant household tasks for me, and in return I'll have sex with you." Which is different from "I'm kind of pissed right now so, no, I don't want to cuddle."

Because books.
Puerto Rico's is sort of pretty with the waterfall! Poor Miss Great Britain, though. That's just sad.
At the moment, I'm irritated by a certain six-year-old who comes to stare at me while I'm trying to make a business phone call. Go. Away. Now.

Today is just broken.

I agree, sarameg.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
It's not completely broken here yet, but then you all are three hours ahead.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
NO! I need today to be functional! Yesterday was broken! Or, okay, maybe it was just me. But for serious, people, I need to kick some productivity ass.

Today is just broken.
Seriously - what's up with that?
I'm spinning my wheels here at work waiting on environmental factors I can't do anything about, but the clock is still ticking.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I have been fairly productive with work, despite many others' attempts to make things difficult, but I still did not get nearly all I need to do done.
Now I need to eat, run an errand, and get mac before my mom loses her mind.
