Me too, right with ya. Walked away and never looked back.

No, you aren't. Happens a lot more than you might think! :)

Kids- yeah, I live in a neighborhood where there are loads of them one street over, and I slow down and even watch for little feet below cars- or a ball bouncing into the street. Especially in summer. I got blasted by some road-ragey asshole a few weeks ago for this and lo, a kid came bouncing out into the street in…

I actually hit a bird once, and I could feel it thump my grill- this was somewhere in New England and I was pretty young, and I was so mortified and saddened that I wept all the way back to my apartment. And yes, I do tap my brakes if I think it'll be another close call- and I swerve/brake for ground critters! If…

Or the seat drops down and dumps the offender onto a conveyor belt which then whisks them right out to the parking lot!

Is there one in Houston? I am there periodically...it sounds like a hella great place to go.

Ugh. Good riddance to that one.

Hey ladies- Want a job that pays great and has more vacation than you can shake a stick at?

Nah. My room became my brother's room. He later got married, then divorced, then moved back in- to the same room, where he dwells today (he is mid 40's). What is now the guest bedroom was my grandma's room. She died several years ago. A third bedroom switches between guest/grandbaby/overflow of stuff. I am on the outs…

I have a grown adult kid who was conceived at the "rents." We didn't have a getaway plan nor did we have cell phones. Just waited till the alcohol took its course and the old people padded off to bed. Works every time. Just squelch the squeals ;-) Oh, and what's wrong with Rocket Dog platform sandals? You get three…

Beautiful menorah!

Well, my tree didn't have a bark lice problem, but a gazillion Cinara aphids woke up this morning and decided to start dropping out all over the floor under the tree. And make their way across the room into the kitchen. At first I thought they were ticks, but no. Daym. But they are harmless. I just keep vacuuming them…

I cut my teeth on Wolfenstein 3D. Proud of it, too!

Merry Christmas to you, too! Consider yourself hugged...

They were pretty imaginative to me. You have to understand that they were working on a tight budget, and didn't have the resources later iterations of ST had. Nobody really knew what a hit the show would become.

At least you get invited to family events and get along with your family. I have zero interaction with my family. My family was not there for me when my kids were born, nor did they did give a flying fuck when I graduated from college, which I paid for myself with the help of the GI bill. I am not invited to family…

I kicked Catholicism to the curb thanks in part to guys like you, and I thank you.

Yeah, it was such a myth that they just had to pass the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. It was the first bill signed into law by Obama. Because the wage gap is such a myth and shit.
