Ladies, don’t forget it’s work from home Friday, so today you can just fuck shit up there instead of at the office.

I hate gay Halloween because what do you mean you’re the corn chowder Andy spilled on her poly-blend sweater on her first day at Runway

I spent every weekend of my high school freshman year at my friend’s house watching Dirty Dancing. Fast forward [redacted] years and I’m rewatching it to write a parody epilogue for @thenovelizers podcast! (The dancing was as dirty as ever).
