    We're kind of going out.
  • The fact that this lousy excuse for a book is getting so much attention gives me hives.

     

    So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

  • Also?  Your last poll option is insulting.

  • Oddly enough our safe word is grey.
  • Oh please god no.

  • i am certain that this poll idea was created by the 15 year old male intern.
    kiss it, nest.
  • Why is there no "We wear our gimp masks and strap-ons around the house all the time! We own 5gallon jugs of lube! The garage has been converted into a dungeon!" option?

  • Is having a cutesy cheerleader name required to work at the nest?

    It's okay to go by Danielle.  You're an adult.

    And you'll never replace Annie.

  • Option 1 and Option 3 are in no way mutually exclusive, which yes, makes your little poll HIGHLY OFFENSIVE.

    In other news my 69 year old aunt asked me at dinner last night with her husband, my husband and my parents if I'd read these books yet with much eyebrow groucho marxing etc. She's read all three and *wink wink* they were really good, "oh yeah." Indifferent  I said no and forbade her from mentioning this subject again in conjunction with dinner and my parents. I resisted the urge to inform her that they're terrible.

    Thank you!!!

    I am tearing my hair out and gnashing my teeth over this.

    And lol about your aunt.

  • I find it increasingly hard to believe anyone at the Nest has a college education.

    ETA:  And MSNBC can quote me on that sh!t.

  • I am wayyyy too busy masturbating while reading Twilight fan fiction to actually have a sex life of my own. YWIA

  • Also, have you read the book?  It's like the worst kind of fanfic. 

    If this tells you anything, all the bored moms on Parenting are foaming at the mouth over it.  That kind of reaction is not exactly indicative of literary quality.

    I'M JUST SAYING.

    It's probably the worst thing I've ever read.  I knew it'd be bad, but morbid curiosity got the best of me.  It was SO MUCH WORSE than expected.

    That's twice as far as I made it.
