Knowing this county, that would be like trying to draw blood from a stone.
As a Dispatcher, though, thanks.
When the MPD dispatcher helped me deal with a rash of crank calls at a previous hotel job (I discovered I could transfer calls to an outside number on that system. Arranged to transfer them to the police dispatch line. The calls dried up REALLY quickly.), I made her a batch of homemade chocolate chip cookies.

That might work in Michigan, but not in Texas. Believe me, I've tried. They told me it's considered a normal road hazard by law, and it's up to your insurance.
I think I just managed to boob dial someone.

Case closed!
Uh, I think Dei is supposed to be Velma.
No, that's Imposter Frank's line. Real Frank is bound to a table somewhere and still needs to be found before the swinging axe gets him.

It wasn't that. In racking my brain for a villain somehow related to you, I remembered your rant about your daughter, and Icarus sprang to mind. One of the darker
Oh. Danggit. I forgot to apend this to that post:
But that's another story, for @Ravenpoe to tell.

Errrr, I... think this is a narrative avenue best left unexplored.
Hey, don't drag my good name into this.
We spent the day getting ready for our big Easter egg hunt and I thought it would be fun to draw some happy pink calla lilies. If I could finish them in time to frame for tomorrrow, that would be awesome but not a big deal if I didn't. I just wanted to draw happy pink flowers. I did my outline and I'm really happy with it.
I take a shower and I tried something new to avoid my hive issue and then I ended up with the worst attack I've had in months. It was rough! My son saw and was super freaked out.

You should get Nancy Allen to fix your sight.My fancy gun sight is bustedgotta return it. Made for a confusing and frustrating day at the range.
My daughter and I are working on some art this afternoon and we're going to practice on a picture of Sylveon. I'm such a slow-ass. She's been done for ages.
I want to practice with my coloured pencils on something other than flowers before doing a pikachu for my son's friend.
My eleven year old daughter is faster and better than me.

Who stupidly scheduled his doctor's appt for the day right after Easter and therefore had to sit at the Easter feast table with an empty plate the entire night? This guy.
Baked ham with apricot glaze, mashed potatoes with bacon and cheese, buttermilk biscuits, sautéed carrot sticks, and orange/lemon-frosted sponge cake for dessert. Maybe there will still be something of it left tomorrow night.

I finally started hiding George Takei's Facebook posts. I started following him in 2012 when he'd mostly post fan-submitted photos and add a clever pun. He did get political at times, especially about LGBT stuff and Japanese internment. But he wrote all that himself and it was insightful. It always made me laugh when I checked my news feed.
Then he started posting clickbait a few years ago. At first it was just a few Upworthy links here and there. It wasn't a big deal. I also understood that he was producing a musical and it took up a lot of his time.
Now his Facebook is nothing but clickbait. I know that Takei doesn't manage his own page anymore because he has a lot on his plate. But come on, this is ridiculous. He does post the occasional political statement but those are few and far between. Everything else is a link to Knowable, Shareably, or Daily Buzz. Top ten lists that are somehow six pages long, inspiration porn about autistic transgender dogs standing up to bullies, etc. Yes, I can believe what happens next and no, I don't want to take your poorly written quiz. It's like he has a bullpen of 21-year-old journalism majors posting for him. In fact, he probably does.
I'm whining here because I HATE clickbait. It devalues journalism and appeals to the lowest common denominator.

This is the best turn of phrase I have heard in months. And it describes that bullshit so very well.
Have you rebooted windows? How about now? Or now?
After a long weekend of pretty much this a few years ago, I told them to kiss my ass and switched to Comcast and never looked back.
I mean I could not get a straight answer or even an admission that they were having an outage. Even after getting an escalated ticket number, I got nowhere, because if on the off chance I got a human instead of voice mail, it was essentially starting over describing the problem.
If there is an alternative provider in your area, I suggest you call them as soon as their offices open. Time for Verizon to kiss YOUR ass.
In all fairness to Verizon, they fully admitted to the outage, and said it was a catastrophic system failure in my area that was still being investigated and repaired. They are also the only provider in this area
