Actual lol @ "Glazed Expectations." Years ago, there was a very short-lived shop in my town, called "OVER THE EDGE." It was like some kind of mom-and-pop version of Hot Topic. They sold spiked wristbands and...Noam Chomsky lectures on CD.

Someone who lives in Colorado needs to hip us to all of the horribly formed marijuana business names.

I don't know how any parents worth their salt could, in good conscience, leave their children in the hands of Little Wiggles & Giggles Day Care.

Walking Feenicks (Old Lunch), Wednesday, 5 November 2014 21:27 (eleven years ago)

For a while it seemed like every daycare in town was named after a fairytale. There was Goldilocks, Cinderella, a whole whack of others, and... HANSEL & GRETEL. *facepalm*
