THIS! I’ve had to eliminate caffeine thanks to anxiety. It’s normally well controlled with meds, but recently caffeine has been ramping up the jitters. The day I found myself doing deep breathing at my desk to survive the anxiety was the day I realized I had to give it up.

I do too! There are other causes I support, but they aren’t actively being defunded on a daily basis.

I assume spending $31 million virtually guarantees you’ll never get divorced?

The Spoon Theory has been helpful for me! Not only don’t I look sick, I’m the happy, rosy cheeked picture of health. If only I didn’t have a serious, chronic illness! The truth is I *am* happy. And I’m tired. And I’m sick. And I feel fine. And so on. I don’t doubt Rosie burns through spoons in public and needs to

Her entire chest appears to be frowning. It takes a talented top — and I use that word loosely — to make what must be perky boobs look downright frumpy and sad.

I guess that’s the good part of being an atheist. This is literally meaningless.

Someone kindly explain to me what “spiritual consequences” are.

My father took great pride in embarrassing me. He enjoyed telling my friends that, as a baby, I crawled too close to the vacuum and it sucked my brain out.

I studied in France for a year. This town had a McDonald’s, and the locals would loudly proclaim how awful it was. And yet, every day at lunch? Jam packed. This was not a tourist location. Granted, sending Domino’s to Italy seems bonkers, but I guess you never know.

I’m not sure who I picked, because right after clicking I blacked out. Very traumatic experience.

When people hear my name, they usually say, “Oh, my great aunt had that name...but she died a long time ago.” (The last half is implied.) It’s not ugly, and I embrace it, but I rarely meet anyone with it who isn’t about 40 years older than me.

So lovely. I want an aquamarine engagement ring too! I like that it’s a color while still being light enough not to clash with anything. Granted, this is all dependent on Mr. Snippet proposing...but my mom and best friend know what I want, when the time comes.

I didn’t leave Schindler’s List saying, “Thank goodness Spielberg gave me an easy way in! He really made the Holocaust palatable!” All audiences require is a good movie.

My cousin’s ex-girlfriend always made him tell people they met in high school, but the real story was much better. They were one year apart in high school and never crossed paths. They each moved across the country and randomly met through online dating. I mean...they moved 1,000 miles to meet someone from their tiny

I remember visiting my mom at work when I was in elementary school. She introduced me to her co-worker. “Snippet, this is Ramona.” Ramona looked at my mom, looked at me, then said, “My name is MRS. BONKERS to children!” I don’t know who was more shocked, me or my mom. Needless to say, we skedaddled pretty quickly.

I got Chris Christie. As someone who lives in New Jersey who hates our governor with the fire of a thousand suns, I say...FEH.

As an atheist, this is the first time I can sincerely say, “I love God!”

Peniswrinkle is my favorite shade of purpley-blue.

I like sharing funny things that happen with my boyfriend — same as I would with any family member or friend. But I do it sparingly. And I never indulge in the OH MY GOD I FOUND THE LOVE OF MY LIIIIIIIIIFE business. Because nobody needs that.

Anthony Horowitz is wrong, but it’s not his first round in the ring with racism. He’s written for or created several Brit mysteries — including Foyle’s War and Midsomer Murders. Both had charges of whitewashing associated with them. So coming from him it’s not much of a surprise.
