Agreed. We’ve become every rich, snotty 80s movie villain. We are way past every Andrew McCarthy role, and perilously close to becoming the Cobra Kai.

OWL is wonderful. My daughter just completed it last year. I cannot recommend it highly enough. My son will be going next year. Good for you for facilitating.

My husband routinely tells my daughter (now 15 but he has been saying this for years) “Teenage boys are terrible and they’re all about sex at this age. Don’t believe anything they tell you at this point. Date if you want to, but never forget you have all the power.”

What the HELL is she wearing? She looks like a discount Milla Jojovich from the 5th Element. Jesus these people have hideous taste. 

She is unbelievably badly dressed, constantly.

And those sleeves have morphed into the fur trimmed gloves that are all over the stores this winter. I... I kinda love them.

Safety Dance belongs on every playlist forever. Along with the Spanish version of Oh Mickey!

Minus the blue satin sash and plus powder blue eyeshadow, you are looking at my prom photo in 1982.

Consider making them LLCs. I went from being self-employed to being an LLC for reasons other than cost, but now that the revised garbage tax code favors LLCs, it looks to be more than a break-even. Just a thought.

Holy crap, this sounds great. I’ll give it a test run tomorrow. One cannot be too careful.

Given that my definition of utter hell is to be stuck in a room of teenagers who don’t like me, I approve of this.

Can I vent for a sec? My mom just joked with my 15 year old about being interested in boys and whether she found a boyfriend yet. My daughter responded with a perfectly reasonable “Gramma, I’m still firmly in the camp that high school boys are gross and often smelly and I have other things I’m doing right now.” Which…

You’re so right! Since we can’t control murder, or spousal abuse, both against the law, we should probably not have laws against them.

That is ... beautiful. You, sir, have a gorgeous head of hair.

I’m all for consistent federal gun laws. Make them mirror Massachusetts, or California. If you can’t pass those rules (which are pretty damn easy) you can’t carry anywhere. Suck it GOP.

Present your best guess as to the right decision. You probably know what you think the business will do, right? In as few words as possible, ask if that’s the course of action the boss wants to follow. Heck, put it in red so it’s easy to spot. That way the boss can simply answer ‘yep’ if she agrees.

Don’t forget the rage-inducing assumption that wage earners, even the poor ones blowing their money on stupid objects, are all MEN. ... well, or possibly lesbians, so there is that.

I’m free that day. Can I bring anything?

At which point.... HELLO SPENDING CUTS! This bill is a fucking travesty. ...And I say that as a pro business dem with a pass-through org.

They will be UTTERLY delighted because they’ll get 75 bucks back while not being capable of connecting that to the 850 buck increase in their health insurance premiums. Christ, these chodes are dumb.
