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.

You ate a donut hole and you liked it?

Um, yes? Should I not have?

I think she was trying for a Katy Perry thing, Tep.

Katy Perry thing

I'm pretty uneducated on Katy Perry, other than the firework song. I assume she doesn't have a song about donut holes? Because if she did and I didn't know about it, I should be ashamed of myself.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Katy Perry also sings "I Kissed a Girl (and I Liked It)," which also mentions having no regrets.

My mind kinda went to the same place. I was just too lazy to post.

Thrive to spite them

I just cut/scraped myself pretty bad. I was reaching into the fridge and I guess I caught my finger on the rough edge of something and when I pulled my hand back I pulled off a chunk oof skin on my index finger right above the knuckle.

it doesn't really hurt and I'm trying to slow the bleeding down.

I just feel really stupid and clumsy and 2012 continues to try and trip me up.

Man, I am so pop-culturally unaware.

The only way I know the song is from hearing it on the radio before I could get to the buttons to change the station. It's an unwilling knowledge, I assure you.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I think a fascinator counts as a hat. Silly Brits.

ita !, I'm amazed you got in a rational debate with the guy dissing your soda. Someone comments on something I'm eating, I'd be likely to tell them to step the fuck off.

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

I have walked up to people and said "OMG, what are you eating?" regardless of what they're actually eating, and then following up with "Isn't that really annoying, when people make a fuss of your food?"

I hope if I do it loudly enough, people will work out to avoid doing it to me.

I have had at least one person try and change the topic back to me mocking their food, since the actual work topic was unpleasant. Good to know.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I will, on occasion, comment that someone's food looks or smells wonderful. If it doesn't, I keep my mouth shut.
