Yeesh. Hope everything turns out ok for the little guy. I did plenty of faceplanting onto various surfaces in my youth, but none of it required trips to the oral surgeon. That was saved for the fastball I took to the head in 8th grade.

But how will you know what I had for lunch. Here's a Polaroid!
One of the guys from my precinct is in the hospital in a medically-induced coma. He flatlined twice while enroute to the hospital. Suffered a heart-attack chasing after two would-be car thieves.
He's got a 6 month-old daughter. His wife is also a cop here.
Not happy around here right now.

I read an awful story about some kittens that were starved and abused by an idiot locally. They both nearly died, they're still really sick and one is facing multiple surgeries.
I can't even comprehend what sort of a person could do that.

Ain't that a kick in the pants? One of the cops at my wife's dept dropped dead while running (for exercise). He was probably one of the most physically fit guys I know. Turns out he had a weak blood vessel in his heart that had been that way since birth. Ironically, he probably would've lived longer had he been more out of shape.

Abused cats. That hits me right in the feels.

I think more than their hands need to be tied. I don't want any chance of the doomweasels getting hurt.

I'm more worried they might actually swallow what they bite. I mean, that can't be good for them...

I'm worried that the the guy will topple over and land on a doomweasel.

I was about to go eat dinner, then I read this article:
Court: It's Not Rape If You're Pretending To Be Your Victim's Boyfriend
I had to read the article several times to understand, the level of stupid is that high. This rapist, and I will call him nothing else, started having sex with a woman who was asleep, pretending to be her boyfriend, and apparently the law in California says that's not rape. What the hell is wrong with the world? How on earth is it possible that we actually need a law to tell people that consent under false pretenses is invalid. If this guy had impersonated her boyfriend and tried to get her to sign a legal document, surely that wouldn't end up being a binding agreement, so how the hell does it constitute consent to have sex?
I'm too nauseous to eat now. This disgusts me.

I'm just curious... They're out of their own catalog too? That's just funny.
You'd have to be pretty heavy to crush a doomie. They're made from rubber, springs, and adorable aggression.
Though you're right. We should tie the person upright to a stake after dipping them in FerreTone.[DOUBLEPOST=1357260920][/DOUBLEPOST]
Thank you, North_Ranger. I'm going to go get the mind bleach now.
it is more likely the unwritten rule of you don't get a partial order shipment until the stuff in stock is valued over $100. i ordered all of the new shakugan no Shana stuff from them in October, season 2 came out in December but wont ship until January when the other two things i order arrive and I have the required amount of merch.
what I mean is there is a good chance your not all back ordered, its just that the stuff that isnt is not above the 100 dollar line to allow them to ship what isn't back ordered. so you are getting the whole shipment.
OR on second thought. you are in canada, scratch everything I said, pretty sure they just mark it that way because you can only get whole shipments unless you spend over $250.
Well my screen cap is cut off but I ordered well over 250.00 of stuff so I could get free shipping.
I hope I get my stuff.
They have yet to even charge my account though which is annoying.in your case, I think they only do whole shipments to Canada due to the cost. They have a policy of not charging your account until they ship your order. so basically even if one item was out of stock the system will simply flag everything as out of stock unless you contact them and ask to pay for UPS.
they are actually probably the best anime retailer on the net, I have ordered over 2500 dollars worth of merchandise from them and they will deliver, just give them some time.

There is a girl in my son's class who lives not too far from us in our complex. They have been getting together to play for the last week. Yesterday her dad sends me a text that his son has been puking and while he says he feels better Dad doesn't want to take chances. Awesome, thanks for letting me know, and I wished him a good night.
Tonight I need to go to Target to get printer ink. My husband says he'll take the kids on a walk while I'm gone. He sends me a message saying they walked to the classmate's house. WHAT?!! You know the son was just puking yesterday! Why would you do that??! Oops, he says. So I tell him to leave, bring the kids home and make them wash up again (we had been to the beach so everyone got showers this afternoon). Somehow I got home before them!
Norovirus has been rampant here. As soon as I get off of the laptop I am going to go bleach the kids' bathroom. I have already Lysol'd everything they touched before they bathed including their shoes. I am washing all their clothes and towels. Then I'm going to become a widow (not really, but I am really pissed off at my husband's lack of sense here).

Whilst on a (mostly) relaxing vacation with my family, I get a call from my Sergeant. Apparently, there was some sort of sweeping changes, and I have been summarily punted off the unit I just got transferred to, and sent back to be a beat cop.
No warning, no two weeks notice to get my affairs in order so as not to fuck up my family life or off-duty gigs (that, not-so-incidentally, pay my fucking rent). Just "New Captain, new changes, fuck you O_C."
I am trying desperately to come up with some sort of motivation to actually work tomorrow, rather than flip every desk in the precinct in a fit of schoolboyish pique.

'S cool, 's cool... am currently using a work terminal to look up work applications on other departments. Like Alaska's State Troopers.
Actually, no joke, that does sound pretty boss...

It is... until you get a domestic disturbance involving a man and his moose.
