I never cared for the taste of Triscuits - to me, I always felt like I was eating dried shredded wheat with salt on it. But perhaps I should give them another try. It's been a while since I last had one, so my taste for them may have changed.

Violet looks so grown up with the hairstyle you've given her, and the color of her dress is a wonderful match to her name. ^^
As for other drawing ideas, how about something with Esmé?

That was really mean of Meredith to tell Adelaide that she's fat. I do hope Meredith doesn't say things like that to her sister all the time. I'm glad Willow put a stop it, though.

wait........ haven't we done this before? I love how you posted that question twice. As for my cracker of choice, it's hard to say. I love Ritz and Cheez-its, but I'll throw Wheat Thins in there, too, because I like them almost as much, and because no one's said them yet.

beth: Cody sounds like she grew up to be a really amazing woman. Then again, that's no surprise, considering who her father was. It was a bit insensitive of Veasna's friend to say that he looks different from his parents. I know they're just kids, but still, that's hurtful. It is so cool the way Cody shares her Monty's love of snakes, and even sweeter that she named a new species after him. The story of how she and Gary met is one of the most romantic tales I've ever heard - I certainly hope you'll keep it in mind for a future fanfic project. @seymour: Your interview makes me wonder why Mrs. Bass and Mr. Remora isn't canonical. They're so much alike, with their eccentric obsessions, you just know they'd get along splendidly. Something tells me that Mr. Remora has choked on a banana more than once. LOL. "I measured him as soon as he came out." I laughed like crazy at that! Mrs. Bass would totally do that! She absolutely would! michelle: It's interesting that Reverie doesn't wish to be a mother, but is still close with her younger siblings. And how awesome that she got to play such an important role in the births of Adelaide and Meredith. (I love the name, Adelaide, btw. It's so Victorian!) Do you think Reverie will ever want kids of her own, once she's older and more settled in her life?

OMG YES. I read maybe two sentences of the My Immortal story, but stopped because of its tremendous level of awfulness. XD I loved Nero's reaction to Duncan and Ebony What's-Her-Face, and Klaus' extreme out-of-characterness.

Welcome to 667, Tinuviel, and a very happy belated birthday to you! I don't think you have any reason to worry about offending anyone here. When I first joined I was afraid of the same thing. Turned out my worries were all part of the jitters that come with being a new member. Hey Your name is really cool, but i have no idea how to pronounce it. I was thinking the same thing, but I'm sure Tinuviel will tell us how. ^^

Oh, wow! Congratulations to Willow and Vince for being together for nearly twenty years, and on the births of their five daughters. It's great that she became a teacher, and that Reverie is doing so well in her adult life.

michelle: I totally feel for Michelle. I've been hit on several times by guys who are nearly always weirdos. Once I was walking down the street, and out of nowhere some guy rushed up to me, and asked me for my phone number. I very politely told him I didn't think I knew him. He went on to say how I did, that he'd seen me at the grocery store and honked his horn at me on the street. The whole explanation made me feel that I was being stalked. When he asked if I was single, I lied and said no, hoping it would get rid of him. Thankfully, it did. It's cool that Samantha is pansexual, and how very fortunate for her to be surrounded by so many people who love and support her. On one of MTV's It Gets Better episodes, there was a girl who said that when she came out as pansexual to her mother, she said she'd never heard of pansexuality, and insisted it was just a phase. I thought that was a really horrible thing to say, especially to your own child, who's already worrying over what their parent's reaction will be. "Flightless Bird, American Mouth" is one of my favorite songs. It's funny that Michelle would do a cover - I once wrote an RP post, where Jerome sang it to Esmé. User6 was such an obnoxious jerk! I was really happy to see Hugo and Michelle tell him off. I like the idea of Michelle being involved with other boys, before she met Hugo. It's also a nice contrast between her and Willow. @seymour: I saw part of that movie some years ago, and liked it just as much as the original. I'll have to watch it all the way through, one of these days.

I wish a bowl like that one really existed - I'd love to use it as a centerpiece for my kitchen table. ^^ The above caption is a great touch, too.
I like how you did the coloring in the young volunteer drawing, and the scenery outside the window. Does the caption at the top read "If there's something out there..."?

michelle: Those guys who attempted to flirt with Michelle sure have some nerve, don't they? While I don't see Hugo as the violent type, something tells me he wouldn't let a scene like that go easily. Some guys are just so dense, aren't they? If it's any consolation to Michelle, I never hit on women with husbands or babies. I've always pictured you being that type of guy, but still, I commend you for it. And I love your Jerome and Emma outtake! I think I actually wrote a scene in one of my first fics, where Emma's first word was 'Dada', and Esmé got upset because it wasn't 'Mama'. xD What source inspired your outtake? I tried Googling, but nothing came up.

Very nice, puchicala! I've found eyes to be one of the hardest things to draw, especially on a computer screen, but you've done wonderfully. I like Moxie's eyes especially, and your take on Snicket's is exactly what one would expect. I'm interested to see what your other contributions will be, and who they'll be of. ^_^

Thank you for explaining that in a way that's so easy to understand, Michelle. I hope your friends got better results when they took the three-hour test. *** Goodness, but I had no idea that Google+ and YouTube comment integration was that bad. I do hope you haven't had the misfortune of running into any of the things Michelle did. If you have, then you have my sympathies. I'm not a frequent poster on YouTube, but when I do have something to say, the most annoying thing I've run into is being given the option to use my full name. If I had any desire to do that, I would have made it my Gmail address. Get it together, YouTube. XD

Poor Maureen. It's annoying to have graduated high school so long ago, and have strangers think you're still that age. The same thing used to happen to me, until I was twenty-nine or so.
The "beverage from hell" line is great. xD Is the glucose tolerance test something all women expecting or planning to have children have done?

Teleram: Slavblinscki is quite an amusing character. It's positively awful that he isn't entirely sure what his son's name is! Though I expect that's due to his being ninety-two years old. I enjoyed the joke about/reference to Roman Holiday, as well. beth: Garry Bear *ahem* I mean...er...Garret and Abigail, are hilarious! Couples who argue constantly but still very obviously love each other are always fun to read and write about. ^^ Abigail's comment about kosher bread reminds me of Agnes in the first Despicable Me movie, even though her reaction was the total opposite. xD
