2. That said, this is the most depressing Friday thread ever. Haven't you banged anybody on the piano bench lately? Made out inappropriately and drunkenly at a firm function? Had a gay man go down on you in a taxi?

I'm sorry!!!!!! The answers are:

- On the piano bench...no. Elsewhere....? Well, that wasn't the question.

- Yes. This is one of the few reasons my firm has functions - to see me make out inappropriately and drunkenly with someone, hoping it might be them.
- Not recently. That was among the craziest events of my totally fucked up life though.

Who knew a gay man would have skillzzzzzz?

I'm sorry. I revise my last post to say, you gave me two reasons and then told me to STFU.

So STFU already.

Without lube. Or a reach-around.

So, should I die, they will leave me to rot in my office? Throw some potpurri under the door to absorb the smell of rot?

Potpourri costs money.

there used to be. I'd check travelocity/expedia/orbitz for you, but you could do it yourself.

I more wanted to know how painfully long it is. And to share my pain.

On the plus side, if I have to go, I will effectively be S-ingTFU for, like, 3 days.

Will you cash in your life insurance policy to buy some for me please? I'll make my headstone out of office supplies to save some bills.

This is a very good way to put it. As much as you would expect a parent to be there for a child in a time of shared grief, grief just further fucks up those people who are already dysfunctional.

It's obvious that ABBA's dad doesn't have a clue that as the child, ABBA may need emotional support from him as her father. The fact that he asked for something from her the way that he did just demonstrates that he has no coping skills to spare. It's the opposite of one would hope for or expect of a parent, but far from being a source of comfort to her, he is instead a source of further pain and anger. The only way to deal with this is not to expect anything from him, especially not when his grief is still new.

I agree with the suggestion to give him some money, clearly tell him that you were very hurt by the way he asked for it and the fact that he has not been there for you otherwise, and then cut off contact until you've had time to cope with your anger and you are able to live with the fact that you may never get an acknowledgement from him that he hurt you. That is, don't talk to him or see him until you stop hoping that this time, he will apologize or acknowledge your pain.

I'm sorry for your loss, ABBA.

Or, cash in the policy and throw a better funeral and don't even invite him.

It's about 5 1/2 or 6 hours. Not nearly long enough to get actual sleep. Same as the ones from SF.

Bear in mind that red eyes seem to be attractive to parents of young children. I have no idea why. Maybe it's attractive only to parents of young children who haven't taking their kids on a red-eye, and there are enough such parents who don't talk to any other parents who have had the pleasure.

Yes, there are. They are long. And here and back in three days really sucks.

Have you priced a funeral lately? That biz is a RACKET.

Yes. But only if fringe learns that there are other websites that can answer her many stupid questions, each of which are more easily answered with less effort than drafting a post here.
