Mine too! I'm kind of sad that I have to leave work now.
I recently had a conversation about an area hospital that will no long hire nurses who smoke, the nurse (peach of a woman that she is) was all "Well, they're still going to hire fat nurses, why do I have to stop smoking?" The consensus by the other people involved in the conversation was that we didn't automatically…
OH! I think I heard this coming out of the owner's office, where the TV is set to Fox News. PS: I got to hear all about how the liberal media is pushing Obama's liberal social agenda by being anti-Christian, pro-choice and pro-gay at work yesterday. This started because I said that maybe people make fun of Tim Tebow's…
Regardless of spelling, they meant the car. I vividly remember the mother-to-be telling the story in study hall.
Of course! And if anyone can find The Thick of It, watch that too, also tell me where you found it, please!
You could be right about Cambree, I guess it's just because the mother is a girl I grew up with who moved to Atlanta and now believes she's an honest to goodness Steel Magnolia, so it's associating. I just fear that poor Venna will be saying her whole life, "No, not Vienna (or Jenna), Venna. V-E-N-N-A." Because every…
This one was legit for the car, which of course the baby, now called Barry was conceived in.
Oh, I got dumped in high school for a Mercedes, I don't believe her sister's name was automotive in nature.
I've known the father of this baby girl nearly my whole life, I guarantee you he's never heard the Nordic name Jette. He's a mechanic, so he for-sure knows what a Jetta is. If I didn't have access to these facts, I'd say you might be right. I also know the mother, she's never traveled further than Maryland and is a…
Although, it kind of reminds me of when I first moved to Philly. We were walking in Manayunk and my friend's boyfriend was like, "Who would want to live in the Kaynal House?" He was mispronouncing "canal", maybe these people screwed up the spelling of Anelle from Steel Magnolias and were going with a more AHHnal sound?
Cue the awful urban legends. But, for serious you guys, I know children named after cars and not cool cars like Thunderbird or Impala or Camaro or anything, but Baretta. Like a Chevy Baretta, and Jetta (no relation). Poor Jetta's parents were going to name her Sugar, which is a fine nickname, but can only lead to…
I once paid $400+ dollars for a bridesmaids dress (bitches at the store making me order a size up even though my measurements were dead-on for the size below plus-size, then alterations to have it sized down to the size I should have fucking ordered). That dress was so poorly made, thank you Bill Levikoff, that almost…
Well, we both run and do other outdoors-y workout-y stuff. I do yoga. We're both into music and art (she's a photographer and I'm a writer), both love to go dancing and are big readers. We're also both pretty geeky, me a more sci-fi/fantasy/Joss-Whedon-is -my-god kind of way, she more Tim Burton/horror/goth-y stuff.…
He's kind of the worst. The only bonus to privatization of booze is that it will be available in more places, and more cheaply. Sure, those are bonuses for us, but it's shutting down an entire state agency and costing bunches of people their jobs. Which, oh, hey, speaking of that unemployment rate... Yeah, my mom and…
