From My Lolcats

From My Orbit
LW#1: I think the best way to deal with this is to apply to the school, not accept no for an answer and take correspondence/online courses so you can get the degree you say you have. Just keep this a secret from your gf and slave away on it in secret until you have the degree. If it keeps you away from her some nights, and she suspects infidelity, ...

Oh, hai Thursday! I did not know you was here! Now, to abscond from the LOLcat talk and dispense the bestest advice in the world/outer orbit. LW#1: You know Latin guys cannot be trusted, right? I say that semi-seriously. The culture there surprised me as a young thing. But on the whole, I know what you mean. Some people you just don't have the ...

A stab at DP chat room, orbital lobe, of course.
You know, if the messages would be posted in their natural home, the DP Fray, instead of the nebulous ''chat room'' fray, there would be more of an impulse to comment on these things, Slate peeps. LW#1: FIL is a gun nut. He makes strange rationalizations about basements, cats and boys not being allowed down there. Whatever. If you aren't ...

LW#1: Is this a joke? It will be your computer, get what you like. Use the trip to the Mac Store to get him all angry and self-righteous about the marketing and enjoy a hate-bang at home later. What was the problem? Oh, your husband is an asshole. Tell him about the hate-bang part. You can even put on a fake beard and pretend to be Woz. He'll be ...

LW#1: Wait, does this father not know that his son was conceived while he and wife #1 were separated? I don't see how he can possibly not get the implications. Especially if this was the baby that made them get back together. Well, you married a man who is very trusting and not terribly sharp, and there's something to be said for that ...

Well, hello Bing. No, I'm not going to use you, especially if you blarp all over the LW's letter like that. Is formatting a web page so an ad does not encroach all over content impossible these days? Or is this some kind of gimmick. Why, yes, Bing, you got my attention. But no, Bing, not in a good way. I already think MS is the devil, why must you ...

LW#1: The natural-born story teller has some fairly high expectations out of other people's jokes, doesn't he? Also dabbled in stand-up? OMG, are you Michael Scott? Well, no, you're obviously not because Michael Scott knows when a joke is made to relieve tension, that it is best to acknowledge that tension has been relieved. You're a little bit ...

LW#1: Well, I'm not inclined to buy what you're shilling here. You never ever once noticed he was wearing a hairpiece? Did you not run your fingers through his hair more than a few months before marrying him? Sigh. Okay. Hiding a hairpiece is a pretty weird omission, but I can see why he did it. Hairpieces are the devil and their supporters are ...

LW#1: WTF???!!! Your boss's daughter, nekkid, in a company computer? I understand perfectly your desire to protect this girl by deleting the trash, but there are a couple of questions that come up that you are not in a position to answer, and really shouldn't be asking. The first is, who put these pictures there? How can you be sure it's the ...

Okay, last week MistPanther was kind enough to mention that I was a bit judgy, and you know what, I have been lately. It's so hard not to be when people's problems are pretty much put full on display for you to pick apart. I mean, it's SO OBVIOUS sometimes. For most of us, anyway, to see. But that doesn't mean I have to get judgy just because I'm ...
