And here I could sworn that was an early '80s backside.

Sadly, I am unfamiliar with any film made after 1979.

If I'm ever caught saying "Happy Heavenly Birthday," you have my permission to slap me.

I meant "crushed potato crisps." Please forgive my American-ness.

Next time, suggest he add a sprinkling of crushed potato chips for texture and garnish.

The White House tried to bury our community in BS. Stay centered & fight back:

Say it loud: Tylenol does not cause autism, and leucovorin does not treat autism

Advocate locally for better autism/disability services

Connect with people who want to make lives better for autistic people & families
