agreed. Often, we need to have such explicit proof of the horror people face to genuinely understand what they've been through; sadly, just being told about it isn't really enough.

I can't tell whether or not you're being sarcastic here.

skunks are *so* cute! I'd love to watch them play...from the other side of plated glass, or the safety of an overhead balcony. Accidentally startling one, though, is a big fear of mine

c'mon—-Donald Glover totally made "Troy" sound sexy!

...and I want to release some bodily fluid onto him as a weapon (re: things we say on here with great frequency)

I always elude to this kinda thing, but reading this piece makes me want to get wicked drunk and vomit on his shoes, and all over the upholstery of his car. That is all.

I sorta made fun of a guy online for liking Phil Collins as my opening message and he never wrote me back. I mostly just said stuff about how much better Peter Gabriel was at fronting Genesis, and that Phil Collins should've stuck with drums over vocals. Does that count as "negging?"

reminds me a bit of a guy I met who confided (and showed me for proof) several preemptive rejection messages from girls whose pages he'd visited, before he messaged them at all.

I can't even...

that he's still 100% wrong

well, he was genuinely concerned that she might actually cause an accident by driving on in such a fit of road rage, but I suspect there wasn't anything he could do, personally, to get her to CTFO. As for the filming—sadly, it might be the only way that people would actually believe his story, based on the batshit…

I have an acute desire to go up to these protesters on the sidewalk with their trackers, unzip, relieve myself at their feet, and carry on like nothing happened. Am I alone with this idea?

bring whatever food you can find from the dollar store...

how about getting absorbed by a good page-turner for awhile? Better still, download an e-book from library, so you don't even have to go out to the library (or keep within their hours) if you don't want to. Alternatively, going to the library, and just hanging out there in the stacks might be nice—it's quiet, and…
