Or, better yet, why do they accept the invite but not send the response? That's too lame to even be passive aggressive. It's just mean.

I only send a response if I know it's a small group of people (so as not to inundate the senders mailbox) or I'm actually sending a message back.

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

Wow, this is really cool: [link]

Yeah. I love things like that, that reveal what the brain is really up to....

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Grapes of Wrath! My Little Pony! Flowers for Algernon! Guns of Navarone! I need to watch that and take notes.

It's been snowing all morning here. I slid twice coming back from the grocery. Deceptively pretty snow, with icy evil underneath.

Dang - DH just had to pay $200 out of pocket for his DTaP booster! It hadn't even occured to me that insurance wouldn't cover a vaccine, but I now understand why most adults aren't up to date on their pertussis vaccinations.

Still, that's fucked up. Vaccinating adults for pertussis SAVES BABIES' LIVES. Are all insurance companies run by Wolfram & Hart?

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

If I didn't have a department meeting at 3, I would be so tempted to go home.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My boss, Citibank, and my dead cell phone can all kiss my ass, FYI.

That's odd, Jessica! I mean, not that I disbelieve (it's totally the shitty-insurance-company thing to do) but it's also one of the things supposed to be (when??) covered by the new Obamacare, I think--vaccinations...

We're going to try sending the bill in ourselves just on the off chance we can get reimbursed, but his doctor's office seemed pretty sure it wasn't covered.

I can tell my coworker is a recent child of Texas. She just declared she was stranded until the plows come through. I don't think we even have an inch of snow. Half? Plows on this road this early?

I'm still sort of blinking at her. She's only been here a couple years, though. But she also tried to drive in the Feb blizzard. Blinking.

Yes. Having worked for an insurance company, and for a company that was contracted to pay (or deny) medical claims, and dealt with more insurance companies than I care to remember, I feel comfortable saying, yes they are.
