They're ignoring my emails telling me to take it down, and it's looking like I'm not going to get paid by the second magazine because of this. So I contacted their hosting company.
Well that's just bullshit. Go go you with the DMCA!
You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Cass, the groupon deal is a better deal because it's a 4 to 1 match.
Kat, have you ever read a book called Ball Don't Lie?
Nope. It looks good though. I can definitely think of at least one kid who would like it.
My principal is trying to get my kids to participate in this anti-bullying program called My Life My Power. So I checked out the website and it's a trainwreck. BUT also fantastic for a minilesson on (1) parallel structure, (2) the power of editing and revising, and (3) the importance of ethos and establishing credibility. Check it out: [link] (I don't know if the video autoplays, so beware).

Oh, this is the being bullying we talked about. OK, wading in. (BTW, does autoplay.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Watching Monday Night Football is making it clear to me that everyone in the world gives their loved ones cars for Christmas, and I am obviously just not loved enough.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I think the big bows on cars is probably one of the single most obnoxious things about Christmas. It is more obnoxious than bad fruitcake, more obnoxious than "War on Christmas", more obnoxious than women's orgasm jewelry faces.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Is this sentence funny, or overwrought?
I wondered how often it is the case that these sorts of Professional Development classes are compared to the infamous Jim Jones cult. There must be some Godwinesque rule that the closer one gets to a Briggs Meyer test, the odds of drinking cyanide-laced grape drink approach 1:1.
Also, will a general reader get what I mean by Godwinesque?

I would take out "it is the case that."
Also, will a general reader get what I mean by Godwinesque?
I suspect no, but is the book aimed at people who are Internetty? Because they ought to.
