I only ever have two drinks max at work functions/lunches/parties (and often only one - esp. if that function involves my husband’s colleagues so he’s not “Poor Mr. Mimble, who is married to that terrible sloppy drunk lady who just came for the open bar and free food.”).

What bugs me about being moderate at work…

This is the first one of these I’ve watched - I LOVE IT!!! I want to hang out with Michelle (and hope that she will excuse my totally inability to sing).

Seems like she’s only sorry she got caught.

I must find this house, and then sit on the sidewalk looking as pitiful as possible until the owners let me come and view it. After the tour, they’ll be so charmed, they will ask me to come and live with them. And I will.

I think Renee looks great. And if she’s had work done, who gives a fuck?

My mum had work done about five years ago, nothing major, just a bit to smooth out a few things she wasn’t thrilled with. Her confidence increased ten-fold and she LOVED how she looked.

Isn’t that really the important part? That the person who…

Holy shit. “Yes, my kids have a terrible drinking problem, Officer. I have tried and tried to get them to go to AA meetings, but they just won’t do it...”

That is the perfect way to put it, too, “I did some time”. I did my time at Fast Eddie’s, a “drive-thru” only place that deep fries hamburgers, and has a “meat drawer” for the really busy days so no one had to waste time cooking stuff fresh. Bleah.

How many things off that list do you have to be to be allowed to look at this stuff? I am between 24 and 45 years old. I care about my health and like to travel, and I definitely like food. I have a job, too.

But I fail at fashion and affluence, so.... am I out?

FFS, just keep your goddamn hands (and other bits) to yourself! Even very young kids who think Spiderman and Santa are real people can generally grasp the concept behind not touching.

Why do adults, particularly men it seems, not get this?

This was pretty much my thought, too.

I’d love a chance to walk around a UNESCO World Heritage site like that. And it would be better stone-cold sober so I can actually remember the experience. Why the hell would you even need booze?

Agreed! I’ve seen lots of posters for missing cats in my area, and once managed to help an owner reunite with her kitty, Jade, from the pics she had posted: a close up of the cat’s face, and a wide shot of her whole body. The wide shot showed a white patch of fur on her butt and that’s how I recognised her. I called…

“The fact is, we need to face what’s coming,” he cautioned. “They’re trying to kill us. They’re not going to attack hard targets…They’re going to go for shopping malls, they’re going to go for churches. The fact is, we need vigilance, we need preparedness. We need a full court press on personal protection.”

Well yes, of course. I don’t want other people seeing that I am literate. Men aren’t really attracted to that sort of thing.

She is lightning fast and whip smart, a New York Jew with a copy of the Times tucked into her bag.

Ha ha!! I love that movie. :D

Or worst client ever, “I know you just installed these Japanese oak floors, but I would really like to burn that endangered wood in at least 2 of my 450 fireplaces. Rip it up and put in Honduran Rosewood. I want it done by tomorrow - I’m having a dinner party and we’ll need to use the whole 22K ft of space here, sooo…

So, you live in Vancouver, BC, too? So, so tired of the goddamn constant construction here.

Yep! We use a wine glass (about 1/4 full of white wine) and plastic wrap across the top with holes poked into it. They fly in the holes, and the ones the don’t drown right away can’t get back out. Works like a charm.

Yes!! We must make this happen!
