I’m all for thinking of interesting and meaningful punishments, but… there’s really nothing else to say. Always proud of you, home state!
NOOOOOO BABIES! NO BABIES! NO BABIES! NO BABIES!
Same idea as NO WHAMMIES!, and should be intoned with the same vigor. This is what I say in my head every day as I down my Yaz.
I think my friend Alice started it a few years when we were discussing very alternative birth control methods. I’ve decided this mantra DOUBLES my protection. FOOLPROOF.
You’re welcome to use it yourself. I caution: you say it out loud and people either just...
Apparently, if the South had won the Civil War, all the smart, nice people would emigrate to Canada. This movie is bad and awkward. That’s why Netflix Instant exists. Next!

Oh hi, Atlanta. How are you doing?
That’s actually a great question. I’m going down there for business over Presidents’ Day Weekend (ugh) and I will need stuff to do. What do I need to see?
I’m mostly reblogging this so that my friends can help you out because I’ve never actually lived in Atlanta. the last time I was home I ate at Flipburger, which was...
Lucky.
I rarely feel very lucky, though I obviously should (privilege, etc.), but today I feel very lucky. My lovely friends, co-workers, and internet friends (and an occasional stranger) have made me cry (in a good way) with how sweet and supportive and helpful and hilarious they are. Bravo.
Thank you :)
