That's insane troll logic!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

So my new favorite thing is finding out l've been doing something wrong for 6 months, but no one corrected me until today when everyone jumps my ass about it.

I literally had no idea. I have a process document for this task and I follow it every time and this step was not on it.

I am so asscappy about this.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I believe that one of the (possibly few) existing plans, at this point, is to try to get rid of the mosquitos, at least partly by introducing genetically-modified (super-attractive) mosquitos who are shooting blanks.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm glad the class worked out, -t. I think knowing any form, even if it isn't exactly the same one, would make it easier to learn.

My husband is listening to the Grateful Dead right now because it was a freebie on Amazon. It's like I don't even know him.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is infuriating.

You need really large-scale interventions to get rid of mosquito-borne diseases, which are obviously hard for poor countries. The US eliminated malaria, and it wasn't by giving out bed nets. [link]

Yeah, my friend who is coming to South America with me was like "we need to get nets and DEET". Which, ugh.

I am so not a morning person. Last night at 7pm I was exhausted but thought "I should stay up until 8 at least, so I'm not awake at midnight". At 8pm I remembered something I had to do before today. At 9pm I tried to go to bed and was suddenly tossing and turning and awake. Ick

Were you going to Chile, meara? I think you are in the clear, there.


meara - Jan 27, 2016 8:09:05 am PST #14276 of 30003

Yes, Rick--I hadn't actually looked into it yet, so that is good to hear. Not that either of us are planning to get pregnant. But still.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

What the fuck. What the ACTUAL FUCK. You guys, I can't handle 2016.

One of our friends who is a trans* woman died yesterday, and it's very likely that she was murdered.

This phrase is entirely appropriate here: I can't even. I just can't.

My first impulse is to text Tim, but he's at work and there's no point in upsetting him when he has to work for the next 5 hours, you know? So I'll wait until he gets home, but oh my god.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

msbelle, I'd be extra-asscappy about that. My department is noted for errors in process documentation, and I am known for flipping my shit about them.
