I am absolutely not telling my parents how late I stayed up last night. They're not even in the country but I don't need to feel them judging me from over there.

The wall is there to ride on. He just hit it with his body instead of his bike.

Batman and Robin. I KNOW it's cheesy as hell but I was a kid and I loved it. I loved the aesthetic of Gotham but found the previous Batman villains too scary (Penguin, Two Face) but Mr Freeze and Poison Ivy weren't scary at all. It was a romp!

In BTVS they can. There's a vampire who's cursed with having a soul and is therefore unwilling to hurt humans, so he just toddles down to the butcher and gets blood from them.

Soulless vampires either like the hunt or just prefer the taste of human blood. For instance, some vampires just raid blood banks instead of hunting humans.

A kid once asked to pet my dog and I said no. Kid then proceeded to tell me my dog looked evil. I was enraged. She is a dog, she can't be evil, and she's absolutely terrified of strangers but especially kids.

Usually when I have to deny people petting this dog, I'll offer to let them pet the other dog who's normal, but fuck that kid, you don't get to pet any dog today.

Absolutely. There's no better feeling than knowing someone will always be there for you and have your best interests in mind. Cuddles and stupid jokes aren't bad either, if you're into that sort of thing.

Even in past relationships that didn't work out, I wouldn't say the time/money/energy was wasted either. I don't regret any of it, even if it was only to find out what didn't work for me and what I didn't want in the future.

I know you're trying to come to terms with being alone, but I truly believe love is worth fighting for, if you decide you want that. I hope you find the peace you're looking for.

My sister definitely regretted letting me into her house whereupon I proceeded to eat almost her entire block of cheese.

Marcus Veltri (piano) and Rob Landes (violin) for anyone who's interested.

I'd also like to recommend Frank Tedesco for a similar kind of shtick but is funnier imo.

I used to work at an engineering firm and one day I saw one of the engineers leave at like 2pm on a Wednesday and he was like, "Bye, see you next week!" He had been busting his ass to finish a project and already hit his 40hrs for the week.

I was a temp at the time but needless to say, I jumped at the chance when they offered me a real job.

My one dog is very special. She likes to sleep with her head under the couch. She was not pleased when we got a new couch that her head wouldn't fit under. She sometimes runs into walls and falls off of sidewalks.

My other dog is entirely disinterested in toys. She does not play with them, ever.

I had a friend in high school who got squeamish at the sight of blood, or at least that's what we all thought. She went on to become a surgeon. Turns out, it's the idea of people being in pain that got to her. Operating on someone who's out cold was absolutely fine even if they're gushing blood all over the place, because they can't feel it.

It's not immediately obvious in the store, though I can't say I've been looking in the past decade or so. I'm from BC and my parents used to buy it while I was growing up.
