    Web of Failure.
    Quote Quoting Donald Glover
    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    This wikipedia page has a section called Real-life Spider-Men. I found its contents disappointing.

    I'm disappointed by their lack of info behind Turkish Spiderman.

    You can't tell me there are no great stories behind that.

    Accent the second to the last syllable is the general rule of thumb, no?

    E's are A's. I's are E's. The hardest sound for me in Italian is "gn" and "gli." G's in general are awkward.

    And say "allora" a lot.

    BOSS: So, they've decided to blame us for the car registration mix-up.

    ME: How so? That's not our job.

    BOSS: [The woman in charge of cars] says that we didn't tell her how to replace the registration.

    ME: Why would we need to tell her? That's her job.

    BOSS: But she heard you had the forms and that you didn't send them to her.

    ME: I didn't "have" them. I found them. On the internet. In three seconds.

    BOSS: Well, find them again and fax them to her.

    ME: She has the internet, right? It's her job to maintain the registration, right? Why is it suddenly our problem to send her things that are readily and publicly available?

    BOSS: Well, gee, Natalie, we could have an hour-long conversation about how nonsensical this all is, or you could find the damn form in three seconds, fax it over to her, and then be done with the whole situation in five minutes.

    ME: ...you make an excellent point.

    I love Jason Segal.

    In an interview, after mentioning how much he loves puppets, and that he keeps them all over his apartment:

    Do you put them away when girls come over?
    No! You don't put them away, you've got to put it all out right in the beginning. You don't want to pull out the puppets two months in.

    Yiiiiikes is my roommate getting passive aggressive in her twenty-three item "notes" on Facebook.

    The following items could very well be about me:

    I've grown to hate city life and Baltimore the more I live in the city, but will not stop living in the city until I move in with my husband
    Sometimes you have to bite your tongue on things that other people do that are hurtful even though you know they are in the wrong (ie parents not inviting you for holidays...I forgive you, but I will never forget, overhearing 'friends' gossip about you behind your back and yes I did infact overhear you talk about me behind my back...I forgive you)
    If I hear anyone else complain about their family, job, etc I might slap them in the face be grateful for what you have or shut your mouth and go serve people in a homeless shelter and ask yourself 'do you really have anything to complain about?"
    I have lost sympathy for people who complain about their lives when they are obviously doing well...seriously I don't want to hear it...you have it all, so stop your complaints
    I may be nodding to you to your face, but inside I want to shake you and tell you to count your blessings
    And this is for me and absolutely nobody else:

    I don't have much in common with most people I know because I don't like to read, can't crochet, don't knit
    I DON'T KNIT, EITHER.
    ...and the milk's in me.

    I'm perfectly polite as long as she's in the house, even if she's in another room. Just in case. But I have a fear she's going to eventually find MC. Which she must never do. See also: my parents.

    In her defense, it totally sucks that she's going to be sitting at the house completely alone on Christmas. She didn't get one card, one present; and I've had two dozen cards come over the last couple of weeks. I'm off to festivate with my family for the next four days, and she doesn't even have a pet mouse for company.

    It's such language of the culture.

    Why didn't her family invite her to Christmas?

    Well, she has her bitterness to keep her company and Facebook for complaining about how much she hates when other people complain. I'm sure she'll be fine.

    It is a shame Bianca's gone, but maybe the little friend who snuck in her cage will return!
