Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

The only thing better would be if Christopher Lee was involved somehow.

Noooooo. The only thinkg better would be if I was involved somehow that involves a giant white dress.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh my god, I would shank a dude for this.

Organic beef, toasted brioche bun, your choice of Brie or bleu cheese, and bacon jam, served with fries or mixed greens. Also known as lunch on Tuesday.

Daaaang. I would stone cold shank the Queen of England for this.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Thinking of Louis CK and"I hate you too, you little shit." Back from dental cleaning. Don't think new hygenist did as good of a job as the scary Russian, but my mouth feels less assaulted(Not completely not assaulted, mind you) Am wondering how many meals I'd be willing to skip per month to get "see ya in six months," instead of "Gee, wish you could come in sooner." cause I'm seriously Over It.

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

Jilli, why should "goth" not be in the Etsy goth tag?

Hey, see I can exercise judgement about what I say where.

I pushed back on the bitchy developer and asked her to take some initiative in the solution instead of complaining she didn't like the (my) requirements. There's a difference between missing and omitted. I guess some people do need to know the page was deliberately left blank.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

strokes being detected by the patient's jumbled text messages.

I once responded to a FB post by asking if the poster was having a stroke. I'm still not convinced that he wasn't. That post was word soup. There was just enough context to kind of get what he was trying to say, but no logic to the order of the words. He posted again later saying that he had been out on a long walk and the sun must've gotten to him.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I think there should be food trucks like ice cream trucks that drive around neighborhoods playing an annoying tune.

I would totally chase a really good taco truck down the street. In fuzzy bunny slippers and sweatpants while the streetview car was watching, if that turned out to be part of the scene.

Yeah, I realized I wasn't clear about that. "goth" should be in the Etsy goth tag, but you get extra points if it's stacked with any of the other keywords. Like the lace dress I found that was tagged with "goth", "steampunk", "grunge", "boho", "gypsy", "metal", "festival", and "chic".

Because books.

Today has sucked in ways that are spelled with the letters i, r, and s. I can't even.

I may eat cake until I pass out.

But doesn't it have to be in the goth tag by definition? That's what confuses.

Then again, I'm taking tumblr too seriously because I keep following links and having mini rage blackouts. This is how I prepare for the presentation in 30-45 minutes. Taking the ethnic range of dolls (see, Jilli, following everything) too seriously, and eyerolling at comments like "She looks like this chinese actor i forgot her name. OH noooo.... : (" and "Oh I know which actress you meant! She looks like Lucy Liu from Charlie's angels! Or Zhang Zhiyi from memoirs of Geisha!" too seriously because I don't know which font is the sarcasm font.

But, hey, at least I finally drew a co-worker. I haven't told him yet, but it's off my list.
