Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

A local columnist, after seeing a film clip of a panda gnawing on bones, has said (jokingly, I assume) that he's working on the script for a movie to be called "Zombie Pandas of the Apocalypse".

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

However, the one thing that counteracts that is to give her a bezoar. No wait, that's what we should give to smonster.

Why do I get a bezoar?

javachik, I'm sorry to hear that things are so crap at your company.

Consuela, I just don't even know.

Pretty much slept all day, except for answering work calls and texts. Am eating a bit of cheese, and then I have to start cleaning for friend arrival in less than two hours.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Why do I get a bezoar?

It counteracts poison (in Harry Potter), so I presume it'd clean up your gutty wuts too.

Oh. I went to a "Bad Eggs" place.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh. I went to a "Bad Eggs" place.

I always wondered why that creepy monster was called a bezoar. It's nothing like a bezoar.

Although I assume the polgara demon is nothing like Polgara.

Thank you, it's good to know I wasn't the only one wondering this.

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

Although I assume the polgara demon is nothing like Polgara.

You haven't spent quality time with her.

A co-worker just made me google a fact because he said I was wrong. OMG, don't start a fist fight in my place of business. I damned well know a complex carb when I eat one. He asked me why I was competitive. I told him "because I woke up this morning."

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

He asked me why I was competitive. I told him "because I woke up this morning."

Okay, I'm laughing.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Gotta pack tonight. Heading to Atlanta tomorrow for a con.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Fwiw Consuela, the social worker who did my Mom's "evaluation" at the Retirement Castle was able to get her to agree to help that she wouldn't even talk to me about. Some of it was because the advice came from capital-A Authority rather than one of her children.

Bringing in some kind of third-party expert/coordinator may cost extra but may pay off both for you AND your parents.
