    I cannot. I have seen the family car twice since she traded in our old one to get this one - it’s been a year - and ridden in it once for an IKEA+Starbucks white-kid Sunday fun day.

    I cannot abandon it for I cannot prove she hasn’t abandoned me and taken it with her. Every night is a mixture of relief and joy as she steps out of the elevator, as it means she’s back; and she’s also gorgeous so there’s that too.

    Oh shit. Me and the family dog have too much in common.

    So anyway, I can’t comply with this imperative. If you added an article it wouldn’t sound like Phil Hartman’s SNL lawyer character.









  • This is why I hate the Boeing max line. It’s not because of the safety things, for those I decide are self-correcting and thus I can wait those out.

    No, it’s the new layouts they enable and offer that has seats cramped even harder, washrooms without full enclosure - no really, a public restroom divider with a 4-inch gap at the bottom between my farts and the galley - and cheap porous plastic everywhere. The whole thing is a McDonald’s lobby you can’t escape for ours at a time, nor express the slightest frustration at being in.

    If it’s Boeing, I’m not going.
