This reminds me of when my sister was at Legal Seafood in Boston, waiting for a table, and some guy started getting huffy and raised his voice to say, "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM?" (wait for it) "I AM THE PRESIDENT OF THE AMERICAN DENTAL ASSOCIATION." Awesome.
Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

I don't know what to eat for raaaaaaaage. Protein? Maybe a banana?
I'll try a banana and cottage cheese. Sheesh.
FB informs me that Mercury is retrograde, and apparently that causes all kinds of communication problems. I don't know that I believe it...except Jesus, this week is BONKERS. So maybe.

This year I'm not going to bitch about you people bogarting our snow. We're not out of the drought danger zone, but our snowpack is over 100% for the year and we're getting snow a couple of times a week.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If he said that to me, I would have laughed, given him two thumbs-up and said, "Awesome!"

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Man, Mercury is always in retrograde.
I think raaaage might require complex carbs and electrolytes.
Weird, Dana.

I was shaking, and carbs make me kind of zippy and weird. Protein chills me out. Though a banana is a carb. I guess the banana is mitigated by the cottage cheese.
I've had cottage cheese and a banana. I am un-Hulking.
Need to go to the library and pick up the first TPB of Squirrel Girl and the DVD of What We Do in the Darkness. And then exercise.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Steph, authors like that just piss me off. Whiny entitled brats. I had one guy try to explain to me how to use parentheses. He was wrong too.
On your other topic, it always amuses/annoys me that of all the things my family could truly worry about in regards to my well-being, all they focus on is my weight. High blood pressure? Blame it on the weight. Asthma? Fat. Depression? You'd feel so much better if you lost the weight! Autoimmune system disorder causing me to lose almost all the hair on my body? Hey, it's cool you don't have to shave anymore! NO IT REALLY ISN'T. This is the same disease, manifesting slightly differently, that slowly killed my mother, but it's much easier to focus on the thing that's obvious (oh and also doesn't affect anyone else in the family so it's not scary for them, is it?) Fuck. Never mind that I had asthma and depression when I was thin, too.
Sorry, I'm in a bad mood all of a sudden.

I saw my XBIL pull the same crap with I'm the President of the American Institute of Physics! once. What a tool.
