Me too! And my husband! Who didn't realize Booker was black? I dunno - this information has just come to light.

Me too! Were you around for the family portrait painting he sent back THREE TIMES?!? And yet, he chooses to use that headshot ...

Ugh, I am so sorry to hear that! How awful! And the excuses truly are the worst ... "I forgot that we were opening a business and we haven't done anything for 6months and my daughter has a root canal that was rescheduled so we can't make it but maybe 2 hours later then oooops we ran out of gas! Next time!"

Thank you all for feeling my outrage. It really made me feel a lot better

We have all the cake! It is delicious! Also: cheese, crackers, olives, pretzels, french onion dip, chips, crudités, BBQ chicken, kielbasa and sauerkraut AND delicious vegan chili. Not to mention booze.

Thank you. Maybe that's naive, but I think love does have a lot to do with it.

It is so rare on this site and in the world to come across someone who thinks about and appreciates Hemingway in the same way I do. Let's start a club!

First thing I thought of too.

What did you do with your Saturday night? Watch the first ten minutes of five shitty Netflix documentaries, like a boner?

Chimidonga is my absolute favorite!

Taco cock? Burrito balls? What could the Australia-bound editor's Instagram name be?!?!

But hark! Charles wasn't the only neighbor to help! He was just the biggest character, the one who was made for TV.

Perfect - thank you!

My husband is from Michigan; I'm from Pennsylvania. I completely agree with you.

Oh god yes! Dyslexic Heart forever (na na na na na na na na na!)

Where? Where?!?! Gimme the butter!
