Hannah, thank you for this.

I don’t quite feel that Amazon = cancer, but I do think overall it has had a detrimental effect on Seattle.

This sounds to me like a whole lot of CYA.

Yeah, my library caps late fees. I can’t remember what the cap is—even though I’ve hit it a few times—but it’s definitely less than the cost of most books.

Wow, that’s cool that they don’t charge late fees!

I keep meaning to try “Say something funny!” like she does at :28 here in this video.

I don’t think this is what you’re looking for, but I usually say my mom just died.

I’m still kicking myself for missing that.

Aw, thanks for saying something. I ran into that on Sunday too. At least my comment isn’t a spooky story!

I love them both, but I realllllly love Sorcia’s.

Smart decision.

I don’t know how the cat did it, but that cat was totally fucking with you.

Every year I hope Sorcia McNasty will post another story. The murder truck is my all-time favorite!

Sure, Jan.

You keep that fig pizza away from me, lady.

I read it differently. I thought her piece was intended to show her evolution, so she wrote how she felt at the time, not how she feels now. She went from an angry, defensive parent whose kids had been taken away to a staunch defender of other parents to an experienced advocate who understands that every case is…

I think parents and children can be best friends as adults because they’re both consenting adults.

I think he’s a generally an asshole, but I also find him funny as hell. Now I must track down that episode of Wait, Wait.

Thank you! I couldn’t figure it out, but this is it!
