"Coonstress"? WTF.

That's why I stick with the term "climate change." Then I explain that climate is kind of a long-term concept. But yeah, people are infuriatingly dense sometimes.

Yeah, that's just disrespectful. It could be gendered, but then again, some people just use first names to be condescending jerks to male and female elected officials. Here in Ottawa, Canada, we have an incredibly pathetic and backwards newspaper that refers to Liberal elected officials by their first names routinely…

That picture is fantastic!

Aw she sounds lovely!

This is fabulous.

This is amazing. My family tells me that when I was 6 I got lost in the woods behind our very remote family cottage for 3 hours, and that everyone was out looking for me and I just walked up after those few hours, smiling and acting like everything was all cool. When they flipped and asked where I was and why I didn't…

Aww that's sweet! We just got adopted by a stray little guy. We recently adopted an adult dog from a shelter, and the two are pretty good around each other so far (been 3 days, they're wary but never hostile.) This little kitty dude is smart, and I hope he'll eventually join us on walks.

Ugh glad your feet got you out of there fast! Also, I love every outdated tech reference here. Ever figure out what the deal was with the door? I've had that happen too, and it makes you feel crazy!

Haha that just makes me feel relieved! I am psyching myself out here. It's a good one, regardless!

3 years before she moved in.

Time to dig up heirloom photos of every woman in your family!

Oh my god. I would have tried to engage that ghost so hard it probably would have hated me. I'd be like "OK, well I'm just going to leave this shot glass here, upright on the ouija page. If you ever feel like chatting, just flip it over. Good one with the lotion!"

Aw I'm really sad about the cat you ousted. Maybe s/he was the one waking you up about bugs!

That's kind of nice-creepy! Also, put the keyboard cover down, you guys!

I've been using the same burner since they switched to Kinja because I as a policy don't link accounts to fb and twitter (or google).

Egyptian maus are some stunningly beautiful cats.

Chiming in with sunshineganga to ask how. I dream of chatting with people the night they pass away or the night before, but I dream of chatting with people on occasion without consequence, too. The only way I can tell is when it's someone there's no reason I would dream of, like my fiance's friend's dad who I'd only…

Please tell me you submitted this last year. I had major deja vu reading this for some reason.

Weird, right? Bear mace is the same, under a different name. They sell little pink cans of "bear mace" at hardware and outdoors stores here.
