Yeah, I'm English so I might have got that quote slightly confused. I knew what I meant anyway =)

Born on third base and think they hit a home run.

Totally! Plus, I am a massive hat person myself, (hats complete an outfit!), and you can't discount a whole range of hats just because some douchebags co-opted them. We should retake the hats! ^_^

Your son is awesome.

Awesome piercing and glasses too ^_^

I think we have the same name, unless they started reusing meanings.

This. And even with the ridiculously shitty unemployment situation a lot of the world is in right now, I still wouldn't want to work for someone who made a massive judgement about me based on my name.

I don't think it's patronising to point out that she's being irrational, even if it's understandable because she's grieving it doesn't stop it from being irrational.

I see what you meant now and I totally agree.

Yes this! I have ridiculously bony wrist and I have never found a bracelet that didn't make me look emaciated.

"I'm gonna take you home" and the singing. Uncontrollable sobbing.

"I wonder if it remembers me." Tears, every single goddamn time.
