@fuzzymuffin: Good job!

Hey Doug, I hear the women in Paris are super easy.

Wow, and I was feeling sorry for myself shoveling my driveway this morning. We got like a foot and a half and man, everyone on the block heard how pissed off I was.

@RapscallionPancake: Yeah, its actually seriously impressive. She's buying a house and will have to pay absolutely no mortgage, and she's getting a hell of a deal. A five bedroom house for less than 200 grand? Good god, that's amazing.

I would never, ever, ever move there, but I can kind of see how someone born and raised in Alaska would want to move out to Arizona.

Can we trade places? You can be in my snowed in house in CT and you two can finish shoveling the driveway, and I can go hang out on a sailboat, or whatever.

@eri401: Yeah. Someone earlier said something like "if it wasn't for all this shitty racism from my family, it wouldn't be Christmas!" And I'm like, wait, no, that's not just some annoying defect, that's shit that directly affects how I live my life, day to day. Your racist uncle is the shithead that's going to call…

@PerinealFavorite: Its just adds on the pain, when you don't have a family member who acts they way you expect them to act. When your mother is insufficiently nurturing, when your family is knee-deep in rape apologies.

@paper.moon.: True. Sorry for the pile-on. Nothing wrong with seeking information.

@SydneyGal: "What is your ethnic background? I'm curious." is what you should say. "Where are you from" just stinks of "well, you obviously don't belong here, so where are you really from?"

@Cupids_Hitman: So, are we supposed to fight to the death or something?

@paper.moon.: Hindi, man. I know its been said, but still.

@xuatastic: On a trip back to India, my mom and I went to a gathering that included a bunch of her old colleagues, people she hadn't seen since she was a postdoc in her late 20s. Her old lab partner immediately commented, with the entire party listening, on how fat she looked.

@andnowlights: I don't tell them my folks are from India until the third or fourth ask. First I say Minnesota, then New York, then Connecticut, and finally Montreal. (I give 'em my whole life history, if they're really that interested in knowing who I am.)

@Fridge Hussy: A Hussy Re: Fridges!: Slutshaming a cat. That's a particularly bizarre way to be an asshole.

@PerinealFavorite: Why are you taking this so personally. Wow.

@eri401: Yeah, I feel just a little shittier when I read someone saying something about the racist crap their uncle said at dinner, and I'm thinking... so this is what they really think about us, this is what they say about us when we're not around.

@lass sivius: Jesus Christ.

Wow, that guy is just not having a good month.

Matt Smith is my doctor.
