That was truly hilarious.
Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

Connie, did you notice the doors to their house? I am pretty sure, they are fine dropping $100.
I did, actually, I guess I'm not ever going to be in a place in life where $100 is spur of the moment mad money.

A BoA branch was the bank that (at first) told me they couldn't issue me the check for the down payment on our house without my husband there.
Oi, I'm tired.

I admit, whenever I see a new post in Beep Me, I hope that it's the one announcing the return of Sass.
Me too.
I was one of many people the credit card companies got with the credit limit/interest rate Catch 22. They wanted to screw as many people as possible before the law changed.

But it would clearly be terrible if Elizabeth Warren chaired the new consumer protection agency!!!!1!
I have been fairly lucky with banks, $5 fees for each foreign ATM withdrawal notwithstanding. But then, I don't do much with my main bank (Wachovia); we got our mortgage through a local smaller bank, and they were awesome.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Ginger, Chase got me the same way.
So, today I need to buy a mattress, open a bank account, and many other things. Uggh.

not your mom's socks.
The bank discussion sent me into a cold sweat and I had to go make sure I'd paid our mortgage. At 3:30am. I am horrified they can do what they do, from sitting on people's money to sitting on people. The Seattle story is just unspeakable.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I just finished reading the funniest thing about Picking your battles which is now on my list of funniest things I've read on the internet.
Fantastic. “It’s an anniversary gift for you, asshole. Two whole weeks early. 15 YEARS IS BIG METAL CHICKENS.”
This is Joe's worst nightmare. I do collect roosters and chickens and if I were to go to Home Goods right now and see one? I WOULD TOTALLY BUY IT and then out it on the front porch and knock on the door. That was just highlarious.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
15 YEARS IS BIG METAL CHICKENS
OMG I can't breathe I'm laughing so hard. Also, I need to move to the suburbs so I have room for a big metal chicken in my front yard.

So. Power outage last night, three trunks failed simultaneously and the UPS failed to kick in.
Strange feeling of deja vu. Strange urge to unlock my computer and bolt out the fire exit.
