Thank you!

That part about the table?

I'm going on my 5th year of college, and I thank you for saying so.

I can't bring myself to feel anything but pity for this child. She clearly never had a chance.

In a way, yes, because then it's something that you can control and maybe change.

Why the hell not? The last time I checked, the medical establishment has zero qualms about medicating children.

That's a really good idea. Thanks!

A bottle of very nice liquor and a single shot glass, to remind him that you know he'll be drinking alone.

My mother-in-law (or rather, my bf's mother- we're not married) is not horrible, but she's incredibly intimidating and hard to impress. What does one buy for a theater Ph. D. first-wave feminist whose house always looks like something out of Home & Gardens? Any suggestions?

Um..... it is my real name.

I know! Shameful.

Not to be crude, but she is so beautifully androgynous. I would totally hit that.

This is sort of embarrassing, but I went years and years without googling my own name. When I finally did a few months ago, I discovered that there is an adult film star with the same name as me. I wonder how many prospective employers knew this before I did.

Hey! I'm officially old enough to get that pop culture reference! I don't know if I should be excited or depressed.

What about the people who knew that person when they were alive? Shouldn't their feelings be considered?

Well, I guess it depends on your views concerning human remains and whether or not there is a certain amount of respect that they should be treated with. I'm not a religious person by any means, but there are still some things I consider sacred- if only for the sake of the living.

I don't! But, fair point.

A skeleton cannot give consent, so I'd have to say that's a false equivalence.

Why would anyone even say such thing? That's like saying American politics have become too civil.
