My old homepage wen down for a very long time.  By the time it returned, my OG page got pwn3d!

Here’s my attempt to recreate…but i feel like i’m missing a couple of entries.  Man.  Bites.

Bear with me as I rebuild the glory of a former pastime.

How do you break up with someone?

i say, “hey…we had a good run, though. right?”
i’m a pretty nice and simple gal.

“When is New Edition getting back together?”
Unfortunately, your guess is as good as mine. But when they do, I am certain that babies will be made that night. (All through the night, mind you.) In the meantime, you can petition for their VH1 “Behind the Music” Special here:

Yeah. It’s that serious.

‘What is with all the new computer-animated movies coming out lately?  They all look the same and I can’t tell one from the other.”

Well Phyllis, I must say that while I can’t tell one from another either, I LOVE ME A GOOD COMPUTER ANIMATED MOVIE!  It’s like magic!  OMGWTFBBQ! I do think that that one with the Koala kinda did look like that Madagascar movie.  The Madagascar movie threw me off, since it made my summer camp kids sing, “I like to Move it-move it!” all the time, as they did that air-hump dance move.  I had no idea that the movie was responsible for such Bizarro behavior.  I just love cartoons in general; I hate myself for getting on Studio Ghibli mad late.
But Phyllis, I just think it’s the sign of the times.  It’s an old aesthetic applied to a new medium:  making something artificial look as real as possible, then marvellllllling at the result.  Coo your oohs and aaaaaahs as we figure this one out:

“Rebel Alliance or The Empire?”
the ways i plan to use to determine whose team i’m on:
1) interoffice dating policy? these clones are teh hot.
2) medical, dental, AND vision?
3) do i get my own retractable ID holder? or sash? yeh. i like sashes.
4) can i alter the uniforms?
5) so, what’s the food like on the “dark side?” i like a variety of desserts laid out in small portions on ornate platters. buffet style. i like taking my time to pick, and to spoon my own jello (that’s how i know no one’s dripped their sweat into it.)
i’d default to the good side and all, but i promised myself to take more risks come june. you know how it is…

I secretly hate “X”, a friend of mine. I suspect that  everyone else in our group hates him, too. How should I determine the truth of the situation, in order to begin planning his ousting? (.MUAHHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAAA!)

Wow. That is serious. I really enjoyed how you took the time to add your maniacal laughter…it is a nice touch! I think you should just get this over with 7th grade homeroom-stylee and pass around a lil note on looseleaf that says, “Haaaaaay guys! Do you like ‘X’ ? Check one:____ Y ______N If ‘N,’ see me…” Then you can plot your dastardly doings from there.

MUAHHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAAA? (unsure)

Which is the drinking rule: “beer before liquor, never  been sicker,” or “liquor before beer and you’re in the clear?”

I sometimes use beer as a chaser, so I’d have to go with “liquor before beer and you’re in the clear.” However, let’s keep in mind that this answer is what works for me. Also, let me make clear that this method prevents hangovers, not pregnancy. FAIR WARNING!

”Why is it so hard to find someone to share what is  considered your heart? Why do they brush u a side likedirt?”

(I am interested to know what other body parts you consider your heart…) Anyway, this is a two parter question!!!

My apologies for being trite, but things will fall into place, yes? I think it’s most important to get to a place in ourselves  where the absolute fiber of your being isn’t shaken just because an outside party “feels a certain way” about it. (I know the philly people feel me…) A lot of the difficulty in sharing and making yourself vulnerable to others, or “sharing your heart” relies on how well you know yourself. If you have no idea what you’re about, chances are, no one else does, either. Relationships shouldn’t just happen by default…we are not entitled to one another, s/he has an absolute right to reject you, you have the choice to care/ not care about that rejection. Evryone has different standards. Sometimes, what is creepy to most folks, I find incredibly charming; what is stalker-y on the larger social scale,I see as thoughtful; and I am most guilty of finding the n3rdy INCREDIBLY cute.

My point is this: there is someone who exists that is able to love/care about you as-is. So, don’t  force it. If it’s not now, the universe is just saying that “ right now” just ain’t the right time for you. Focus on getting good with yourself, and just be patient. < / sincerity >
