"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

le n, IMHO - "Making" an adult apologize for bad behavior is demeaning to them and awkward for everyone. After a certain point in life, being made to apologize is not an effective consequence for teaching, it just fosters resentment and

disrespect. "Repair the relationship" indeed; the damage to the "relationship" wasn't the root problem, the plagiarism was the problem.

thank you for succinctly putting this. The advisor in question (IMO) is a misogynist who didn't act right when I was his boss. He is threatened by female authoritah. On top of this he approaches relationships with students in a paternalistic fashion, so it is no surprise this is his approach.

I was told about the advisor's request of the student by a 3rd party, so I am going to ignore I heard it. I am still not certain that I'll see an apology letter. Or how I will respond if I get it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I had a date. He brought me a rose, which was nice, but as I said to the drunk girl on the train (with her boyfriend), it's a nice flower, but I'm still going home alone! You people have no idea how happy I was that someone commented, because I had the line all ready.

Ha!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Chicks dig rescue workers.

I read this to CJ and his response was "I wish". Seems he didn't get any Valentine's love today (not that he gave any). Just you wait, kiddo.

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

Bon! Happy first-dativersary! How many years now?

Nine whole years! I was laughing at Jesse's status because Bob brought me a bouquet on V-Day, and I was embarrassed.

Jesus, you're old and shit now, huh?

(I would go on a first date on V Day now, well, aside from how reluctant I am to go on dates, because I would *dare* the guy to fuck up the rules I wouldn't tell him beforehand)

(But they're perfectly reasonable don't go to far, don't stop short rules)

(Just find the line, blindfolded man)

I'm guilty of having expectations that weren't fulfilled. But if the guy's right, you forgive and forget tell the story once a year.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I forgot you had a first date on VD! That makes two couples I know who did, who are both married. Good times.
