I’m actually glad sometimes we only had dialup when I was in high school because we had enough ER visits (and literally almost burned the house down once). I can’t imagine how much more trouble we could have gotten into. My brother broke the washing machine in the 6th? grade trying to learn to do laundry. Oh 80’s/90’s…

They have actually lost him at least twice due to his wanderings. (They lost JP2 once and B16 twice they will admit to.) So they have huge parts of NYC and Philly sectioned off as “oh shit evacuate the pope” detours.

He has that look frequently. Staaaahp touching me, I am not a puppy

I feel shame for knowing this as well

She’d love my friends’ 4 year old. She’s going through a massive princess phase right now and everyone is either Sir or Lady (whatever your name is). We used to get called Ms or Mr (your name). The kid has manners but it’s pretty funny if you’re trying to wrangle her in public and she’s calling you that.

me too!

Those countertops are so tacky.

I’m obligated to agree

People cannot seem to grasp that I work Sundays, every major holiday, or that I work weird hours 2 other days of the week.

I was wondering if it was a costume based on priests I know. If a priest manages to eat alone/have a few hours to himself he ditches his collar if he isn’t in a a religious order just so people don’t bug him.

Sounds like why I switched parishes when I went through a health crisis and don’t talk to anyone from any of those church groups. People are horrible.

As someone w/endometriosis since I was 8, do you want to get ice cream and go make voodoo dolls of our reproductive organs?

Considering the massive racism in that part of Ohio plus the massive drug issues in that community in particular I would move the hell to the other end of the state if I could get another job. I hope those parents can.

I’ve been in that position at work. It’s awful, awkward and you feel like there is nothing you can do.

What do you do about the reverse of number 5? We had an event last night and the person who was supposedly in charge of it (I was helping) would *not put his damn phone way*. To the point I actually had to call him out on it. I can’t run an event if the person in charge of it is so distracted by his phone we’re 45…

That sounds worse than when they put wrecked cars in front of schools as a drunk driving warning. Uuuugh

Someone had a screwed up ruined wedding story here about 9/11. I think we need a 9/11 messed up things contest but I don’t really know how to do that...

That last bit is so something my mom would do

I’m stealing that last line because seriously most men in FWB situations do not seem to get that.

This. My office doesn’t have HR. We have my boss and an operations manager. They have both admitted that our office bully is a bully and a miserable bitch. We just have to deal with it.
