Boofchicken posted:She actually just wrote a new one this year, so I guess money is more important than your beliefs. Yeah it looks like she's still Christian but she's no longer hardcore and has actually distanced herself from Christianity as an organization, while still proclaiming to be true to Jesus. Which is pretty sensible. Glad to hear she wrote another, maaaaybe I'll get around to it at some point but probably not.

I'm sure that mainstream Christianity wasn't as thrilled with her Jesus books as she hoped. She only has the one writing style, so I bet people were balking at how often Jesus was described as impossibly willowy and preternaturally gifted.

Why do all these stories all end on a "funny" one liner, is it because everyone thinks they are a comedian or just from watching too many sitcoms or something.
|
# ? Dec 5, 2015 09:45 |

Well yes duh. Everyone hopes deep inside themselves that they are just as funny as their favorite sitcom hero and that one day they'll also move into a wacky flat filled with hilarious people and messy love triangles. Living the dream.

Humans with albinism usually have blue eyes, so, uh, I guess the main character in that first story actually IS a vampire?

Uh-uh albino rabbits have pink eyes so obviously so do albino humans. After all the person writing that said they were albino so they'd know. Please don't tell me you're accusing that brave poster of lying about themselves on the internet.

You know how in all the STDH happen things involving homeless people, the homeless guy is always so thankful for the small kindness, and then ends up getting his life together? Today my boss was watching our security cameras, and noticed someone prone on the sidewalk, not moving. So we went out and I shook the guy on his shoulder, and asked "Hey dude, are you ok?" He mumbled something I didn't catch, and I said "We saw you on the security camera, and we just wanted to make sure you're ok? What's the matter, do you need anything?" The guy springs awake and goes "Yeah, the problem is I'm loving exhausted, and you won't let me sleep. I don't need anything! I need some loving respect! Here, take this!" And he dug into his pocket, and tried to give me a dollar. Then he sprung up and wandered off, and we went back to work. And I felt like an rear end in a top hat for the rest of the day. And then Albert Einstein married my boss.

"I'm the cool parent! Look at me, I don't give a poo poo about gender roles!" Not saying the kid doesn't like Star Wars, but this guy implies that his wife gets mad every time his daughter runs to a toy "meant for boys". Serious question, are there any parents that actually give that much of a poo poo what their kid likes to play with?
