I'm trying very hard to come up with some visual light spectrum-related joke, but the combination of cold medicine and semi hysterical laughter have turned my brain to oatmeal. You win the internet tonight.

While I detested the Hunger Games books, I found at least the first movie very compelling. The first person narrative of (what become) world shaking events was very limiting in the books - plus Katniss annoyed the hell out of me, I have no clue why.

I can't foresee ANY problems with this! I mean, police are all just and honorable people, none of them would DREAM of abusing it, right?

I do feel like a really good person would be saddened at the loss of any human, be he ne'er so vile. Unfortunately, I am not that good a person, and hope that the Summerlands are barred to him until he acknowledges the evil he has perpetrated. And that he spends a few lives as something revolting.

Whole kids? WHOLE KIDS?!?!?! Holy shit, that just makes me want to smack her even more. What an evil, horrible waste of oxygen.

Oh, I wasn't trying to imply that weed is useless - far from it, it probably would have helped dad if he'd been willing to try it. (my sister got all the necessary supplies, but he was just not interested. i think mom and a high school friend ended up smoking it at some point.) The person who would not shut up about…

Is there an app that will tell me when my preferred Meijer store is filled with shouting toddlers, shrieking babies, and grown ups who never learned the concept of 'indoor voice'? Because I'm gonna need to get some shopping done soon, and an app like that would make my life a thousand times easier...

I actually blew up at some of the 'try xx, it will make everything better' shit people kept pushing on my fb when my dad was sick. He had incurable, terminal lung cancer. No, a macrobiotic diet won't help. Neither will lots and lots of weed. Neither will any of the other shit. I think I ended up threatening my cousin…

Ugh, some of my husbands family told me that adoption 'isn't the same' after I informed them of my 'nope, never gonna push out a kid' stance. To someone with an adopted brother. Yeah, that went over like a ton of fucking bricks. They're lucky my mom wasn't there, she gets kinda pissy when folks try to tell her that…

Damn. That's pretty much exactly what I came here to say. Without the flailing and keyboardsmashing. I have literally not had a pain free day in over twenty years (injury related joint problems) and my doc doesn't like having to treat me like an addict, but she is literally required to. It gets really frustrating.

I tore the living shit out of my ankle at 12. It has hurt ever since. Every fucking day. I spent something like ten years where the only people who believed that I had an actual problem were my ortho and my dad - everyone else, my mom, my sister, friends, teachers, etc all thought I was faking to get out of school.…

She did the right thing. Probably for the wrong reasons, and she's probably still an all around racist, homophobic asshat, but in this one particular instance, she did good. And I'm happy the bill died, even if it wasn't for the reasons I'd hoped.

I heard this on the way home from shopping. I'm pretty sure people three cars behind me heard my whoop of joy.

Okay, is there some kind of secret Egyptian Mau mix cloning facility in the US? Because our Kamikaze is, as far as we can tell, a very high-percentage Mau mix, and she looked exactly like Mercury (except for the front legs) when she was little.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks puce is ugly green!

Shit. Glad I don't often have to drive further west of me than Linden.

A golden opportunity wasted. Awesome dress, still.

While I don't think his relationship with Soon-Yi proves or disproves Dylan's accusations, I do think that it... I'm not even sure how to put it. The fact that he began a romantic/sexual relationship with someone who a) he had a parental relationship with, however tenuous, and b) was possibly underage makes me wonder.…

ALL THE MORE FOR ME, ASSHATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly. And I was more than a little astonished at an AHS character doing the right and honorable thing for the right reasons. Myrtle was right, though I do wonder if the coven made any kind of public declaration, to make sure that the upcoming wanna-blessed-bes understood the laws they were agreeing to follow.
