You know! Way better than this scenario:
Mom takes 29 years to set up tripod and attach camera. Mom takes another 11 years to set camera timer. Mom presses shutter, runs to join posed family. OOPS! The flash didn’t go off! Now why didn’t the flash go...

Einstein (bunny, on floor): Um, Jordan! Jordan!!!
J (husband, in chair): What, bunny?
Einstein: Um, I requested a croissant! Where is my croissant?
J: Sorry, bunny, we don't have any croissants. *Pets bunny's head with foot.*
Einstein: Um, you can't just pet my head with your dumb foot and expect everything to be okay! That is rather nice.
Einstein: Um, but it's no croissant! I am a growing bunny! I need a hearty goddamn breakfast! In the style of the French!

Thank you, Ace postal contract unit lady. →
On days when my packages aren’t all finished by the time the mailman comes by, I take them to the USPS contract unit at Ace Hardware. The same lady is there pretty much every day, and she always smiles and says “thank you” when I hand her my parcels. We’ve started to recognize each other. Today when I was there, I casually said “well, back again,” and she said “that’s a good thing,” and before I...

It’s National Coming Out Day, folks!
I am a happy and well-adjusted gay woman, and I’m lucky enough to have a really boring coming out story. I was 14. I had separate conversations with each of my parents. Each acknowledged that the conversation was a little awkward and difficult, but they…
