I just got woofed at on Scruff by someone named...

crackerfinishingschool:
He “dreams in colors of the rainbow” and wants to re-discover his inner child “while being a mature adult male.” His What I’m Looking For section is filled with quotes from Anais Nin and Mother Teresa.
I know I shouldn’t be so snarky about people I don’t know, but it’s really hard when someone named OpenMyButt is looking to find his inner child by quoting...

Scrubs can be damn funny sometimes
JD: I can't believe Turk and Carla are kicking me out.
Elliott: When I was 15 my parents threatened to do the same thing. So I called them on it.
JD: They let you stay?
Elliott: Nope. I lived with the Babcocks for two years. I didn't have a lot of rules, though, because they were really old and they thought I was a ghost.

Zenaide Muneton is a nanny in New York City. Last year, she made more than $200,000, Planet Money reports. Yes, with five zeros.
How in the world can Manhattan nannies be worth $200,000 a year? One answer is that they’re more talented than your typical babysitter. The highest-paid nannies can…
Note to self: become a nanny in Manhattan…

In November, I was barred from my flight at Dulles Airport for a double opt-out. I refused to go through a blue-box backscatter (x-ray) body scanner, and I refused to endure an intimate feel-up from a woman I didn’t know. The body scanners at Dulles have no…
Yikes. There are SO MANY problems with TSA. To qualify for the job, you only need a high school...
Well, that was a bust -- GET IT?...

Ok, first of all, can bra manufacturers PLEASE stop lining multi-letter cup sized bras with that ridiculous foam? I do not require more padding. I got all the padding I need right here. *performs boob grab gesture ala dudes’ “suck it” ball grab gesture*
So no, I didn’t get a wedding dress bra. Which is not to say the trip wasn’t eventful or productive! First I rode in a train car...

Holy fuck, I just paid $4.40 a gallon for gas.
Our local prices were nearing $5 recently. I think our last fill-up was $4.75/gallon. Thankfully our little old lady Honda Civic is a gas sipper and a full tank lasts us 2 weeks.
During an over the phone survey about the flu...

Survey Lady: *Lots of questions about the flu vaccine*
Me: *Lots of yeses and noes and laughing*
Survey Lady: “Okay, now may I ask you your age?”
Me: “Umm…33?…Yeah, 33. Yes, I am 33 now”. *Giggle*
Survey Lady: “Noooo Waaayyyyy…NO WAY!”
Me: *Laughing*
Survey Lady: “But, you’re so giggly. I am going to start calling you “Giddy”.
Me: “No, That’s my cousin....
I have realized that I still don't know what I...
I’m still debating whether I am going to grow up at all. I mean, I’m already kinda old and my house is still full of toys and I had a Tootsie Pop for breakfast. What’s the point of being anything else? This is kinda as good as it’s gonna get for me. I’ll never be one of those “adults” who can have expensive furniture and keep their carpets sparkling white....

katedanley:
Just FYI for fellow California folks… Did you know that there was a nuclear leak in San Onofre and it’s been shut down? And the damage discovered in the other systems was so bad they aren’t restarting it anytime soon?
I’d prefer if they decided they aren’t going to restart it EVER. I dunno. Maybe I’m just crazy but I feel a little strongly that there shouldn’t be nuclear power...
Me at 17
ponyinarope:
Most of the most recent pictures that exist of me were taken when I was 17. Since it was senior year I actually allowed myself to be photographed. Those pictures are hidden away in an underground bunker.
For those who have actually seen my stupid face (hi giddygirlie!), I look exactly the same, I just wore a lot of polyester, chunky shoes and jewelry back then.
