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

Pretty sure I can do that without watching the video.

The video really helps. Because, until I watched it, I assumed the parents were tricked into French kissing their kids. Gross, but not their fault, right?

Uh-huh.

I'm finding this really charming. A truck driver and his wife (from a town that I used to live in, btw) won $8.3 million in the Lotto. He was facing bankruptcy with his credit card bills, and now he gets to call his lawyer and stop those proceedings, and they get to move out of the trailer park and take "a modest vacation trip to Minnesota." "See the Little House on the Prairie," Janet said, jumping up and down. "That's what we're going to do."

Once you get past $75,000/year, money can't make you happy: [link]

I would like the ability to test that theory.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What the fucking fuck, ita?!?!?!?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I think I'd need a little bit more than that to run into significant diminishing returns on enjoying world travel, but an extra 30 grand/year would eliminate pretty much any unhappiness in my life with a monetary cause.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Not enough ew in the world for that video.

I am seriously skeeved out right now.

Jesus. I didn't watch the video, but WHAT the hell?? That's beyond gross and seems like it ought to be against some law or other.

In completely other news:

It's a very big amount of adorability to wrap your head around. I wouldn't be mad at him if he didn't get the scale of it.

Gosling is really just... I love his interpretation of the two kids in his class when he has to share the shorter bar, "You're old, you're not good, I've seen you in movies, and it's just weird. Why are you here?"

Our wings are not tired.

I know lots of parents and can't even imagine any of them finding that funny. Yeah, seriously ick.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Totally. I watched that video twice this morning.
