That’s actually the backbone of the plot of the book. Your Oasis lifetime subscription costs 25 cents when you first register (don’t even get me started about the value of a quarter in the year 2044) ... so using the Oasis is free. The plot is about gamers trying to win the contest and keep the Oasis free ... versus a…

Sweet Jesus ... is that Andrew Cunanan??? I thought he shot himself ... someone check this guy’s license ...

Oh so much of that in the Old Testament. SO much.

Oh it’s really in there. And, attending a religious school, I had to sit in the principal’s office after reading this particular verse in class. Hey, they told us to pick a verse we found interesting so the class could discuss. So ... angel rape ... discuss! Didn’t go over well ... go figure.

Oh God ... I heard her say that and actually felt like crying. I’ve been in bad situations and had that SAME thought. Jesus Christ ... what’s wrong with us?

Yeah, that’s the way it reads and I’m calling bullshit on it.

The best part of this video, for me, is Eric. Watch his face until the end. He’s fake smiling ... fake smiling ... fake smiling ... Tiffany dodges and rubs Trump’s arm ... Eric face falls and his mouth goes, “Ooohhh” ...

Bought mine last night while the credits were still rolling ...

To me, any questions on Carmela were answered in the episode where she was contemplating leaving Tony. She talked to (flirted with) the young priest in their parish. The priest told her that when she left Tony, she would also need to give up the entire mob lifestyle including the money and the jewelry and the…

I will believe until my death that the writers planned that. The Sharon Tate shirt and then the scene with the party. I SO believe they were planning on some gruesume demise for Megan. I don’t know what caused them to change course ... but it’s a shame. It would’ve been a better story line than the boring “she went…

I absolutely love everything about that scene. And the scene at the hockey rink? Has me in tears every time.

Ugh - I’m in the grays so no one will see this but Jesus Christ. I have a friend who has declared himself a “Photographer” with a capital P ... which these days simply means he has enough money to buy an SLR and the ability to open Photoshop. Anyhow, EVERY photo he posts looks identical to the one above. I have NO…

I read it the same way and it confused me. Emma did something genuinely good because she has the means. Why be snarky? Perhaps we’re all just so cynical that we read sarcasm into everything.

Is your husband’s name Dave? Because he sounds JUST like my ex-husband. That kind of shit just gets worse. “I’M not getting enough attention.” “The kids didn’t ask ME how I’M doing.” “I’M not appreciated.” I’m just saying ... gird yourself because holding the relationship up all by yourself is exhausting and…

I honestly have no idea. Basically, the new testament wiped away any laws they didn’t WANT to have to follow. No shellfish? Fuck that! Jesus came! No mixing of fabrics? Fuck that! Jesus came! Don’t take the name of thy lord in vain? Fuck YES that still counts!

I could sit and talk to him for hours just to be like .. WTF?! The conversation we had about arranged marriages ... that alone was worth the price of admission. Oh wait ... let me tell you about how they decided everything government related was the work of the devil ... and they found a legal loophole that…

Well, Jesus IS known for his love of chocolate. Chocolate AND nachos ...

That’s so neat that you wrote that. When I was married to my ex-husband, he had three daughters from a previous marriage. When we decided to try to have a baby, my mom sat me down and STERNLY told me that if we decided to have a baby, that child did NOT get preferencial treatment before my step-daughters. She said too…

I have a good friend and co-worker who is a died in the wool conservative Christian ... quiver full ... home schooling ... the whole 9 yards. He believes that Jesus speaks to him and will openly talk about it. The story about him and his wife just made my jaw drop.

Exactly. Most cloak it in nicer terms ... i.e., “Jesus laid this on my heart” or other such nonsense. But it means the same thing.
