Ah, well, perhaps we could say that my parents take your already very stringent standard and really run with it.

Hats off to the photographer (s), who shot this as if it was the most horrifying monster movie. That shot of the shadow moving along the “cliff” wall was wonderful.

At the risk of maligning an entire faith community, I’d prefer not to say, because their views are not necessarily representative of everyone of that faith. I will say that their views on the sanctity of LIFE extend to end-of-life care. Anyone not doing their utmost to save life but who instead aids someone in dying…

This case finally prompted me to get my shit together and sign an advanced health directive. My parents are hard core religious and think that hospice care is murder. I know there are outliers when it comes to catastrophic illness and accidents, but I’m not lucky. Just pull the fucking plug.

I CAN’T RELATE TO ANYONE NOT EXACTLY LIKE ME!!! Seriously, Peter D., gimme a fucking break.

Or pull a “Misery” while sliding over to the window too quickly...

It’s hard to imagine the show will go some other direction.

Right? Go fight crime or some shit.

“Besides they would be mad as hell if they came to find out that one of their parents died while I just stood there watching.”

Sadly I only ever had publicly funded loans and eventually paid everything back... all $89k of it. Ugh.

Refused a “lawful” order is always in there somewhere.

It would be pretty far down the list for me.

Jesus. The only reason I’d ever go back to HS is to try to give fewer fucks than I did at the time.

It’s an ironic lemonade stand, probs.

So, Wednesday night.

Root for a gas leak.

No sleeves? How will the men folk ever control their lustful urges?

Er, what? University of Cincinnati and other places that offer a B.S. in nursing would beg to differ.

True enough. Point taken. My mom got a two-year degree 30 years ago, so I guess I default back to that.

Do you have an “enrollment management” office of some kind that produces reports attacking faculty for failing people? That’s my favorite. Fine then, C’s for everyone! Woo hoo!
