My husband's best and worst trait is that he really wants to convert casual acquaintances he likes into Real Friends.

I will never not be a snob about people, entities, and former employers who use the phrase "comprised of" publicly

Some of us didn't hop online in the 90s or the 2000s to get rich and famous, man.

Some of us hopped online in the 90s and 2000s 'cause it was FUN to chat with people all over the world... for free!

Baby, we grew up when it cost a zillion dollars to call long distance! We had pen pals at school!
