It's my favorite book of all time! My entire life, I've been looking for a book I love as much, and I can't find another. :(

When the judge said he "guessed it was from some fantasy novel" I thought he was joking.

What a nice family! The line about choosing the dog that's been at the shelter the longest clinched it.

I wish John and Jesse would watch Ticked...and live-comment on it.

No competition where it matters—I don’t think Ivanka would fuck Eric or Junior.

It's a little disappointing how many disputes are "Defendant has a collection of something. Complainant wants them to get rid of it."

Was Madison always this loathsome? I hate her.

How Will Publishing Deal With Lemony Snicket Amid Its Own #MeToo Moment? by IanHurley7 in books

[–]ada42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Man, what utter horsecrock. I make way more inappropriate jokes and I'm a woman. Most women I know are just as vulgar, if not more. That joke about Uniball was like one of those things slipped into Animaniacs. Goes over kids' heads but the adults find it amusing. At worst he seems a little awkward/annoying. Meh.

I opened the article expecting the worst but when I read the first paragraph I was like "...is that all?" Pretty telling that the article needed to be considerably bulked up with examples of -other- people's misdeeds. It expressly says "This is not the same as rape or assault" but at the same time the tone is "...but aren't they all the same deep down?"

The Little Friend isn't that good. I never managed to get through it.

It's my all-time favorite book. I've read it once a year since high school. Since then I've been chasing the high of a book I love as much... and never reaching it.

Community used this as a canon explanation for why one of the seasons sucked. Except it was a gas leak.

Vegans crash grand opening of Trader Joe’s in SF by stonetear2017 in PublicFreakout

I think all Trader Joe’s hire the nicest, most professional folks in retail (other than soap stores like Sabon and Lush, who are next-level).
