I'd hire him. But it'd have been more impressive if he said, "Pay and me you'll get more. Oh... and should you not pay me what I expect, I'll fuck you in kind."

Oh, let's be fair now. You started this by writing something with no point. He was only making a non-point seeming to contradict yours.

Dissent. This public school kid made a living off Catholic School Girls.

club, I love you like my more successful and smarter brother, where we both both talk about about how worried we are about our dumber brother Ty, but really since you're smarter you are just patronizing me: BUT you tried to pick up notme, which calls into question what was really going on with any of your sexual "conquests."

You are right. My bad. I should have put "Girls" in quotes.

I guessed more than once. But I guessed right.

Reminds me of the sats.

I am still confused, however, as to the basis for the accusation you're "commercial." Were you once about the music, but then sold out when the record company made an offer?

But no one lives on our side of the street. I don't think any of that is true.

So I wouldn't read them too literally.
First, the dots are 25, not 50.

Second, it was specifically in response to your hypothesis that the dots were located at the epicenter of the various people's actual residence, which is an incorrect hypothesis. I was not taking the dots literally--that was Hank being Hank--nor was I suggesting that the dots were located based on any hidden data--that was you being you. In tracts where the population density allows, they located the dots (apparently) at random within the tract--I cannot actually assert is was for legibility, as in several locations a dot is directly under a street name and barely visible.

I await the admonition from the SPCA, PETA or both.
