One thousand and one, one thousand and two, one thousand and three, one thousand and four, one thousand and five.

I am dying to know what "imaginary female trouble" means. Along with "women trouble."
apparently drinking bad whiskey was a good enough reason to be put away? Or being seduced and disappointed, or my personal favorite - novel reading. They could literally use any of these excuses to put anyone they wanted away.

I don't know a lot of the people here.

Just like there is always going to be a book out there for you read for the first time :)

At least if you don't know someone you can always get to know them.

Back in my day they actually had homes for the mentally ill. Of course they were mistreated and abandoned and it just looked bad so they closed them all. Now the mentally ill are basically living amongst us as outpatients and when one of them snaps things like Sandy Hook happen. I guess we have to choose between having warehouses full of borderline crazy people and having the occasional mass murder. Sometimes I wonder which is best...

Oh, like asylums? Where they use to dump women who read too much? Those places seemed terrible...especially for the mentally ill. And lobotomies...I can't even imagine that existed not too long ago...

Well, I imagine because Jesus is also God he could magically make kryptonite appear. He could even turn bread into kryptonite. Also, because Jesus is also apart of God, he's also all knowing, all seeing, all powerful. So he could change fate so that Superman isn't even born. Or know exactly the right words to say to make Superman give up.

Yea, but superman can change time back, so maybe he could go far enough back to prevent Jesus's birth....

But Jesus is also God, and God is timeless and he can make it so Superman is never born. I don't think it's a fair fight anyways if Jesus is three people all in one.

We don't have such things here. I'm flabbergasted by the mention of "free" - taking such pictures has a price tag normally? No intention to degrade the experience or anything, but I thought it'd be more of a neatly organised sponsored attraction than akin to the various costumed street performances.

Normally when you go somewhere to have pictures taken it cost money to print them out and for the frame, too. Like taking family pictures or graduation photo's. In this case, posing with Santa at a pet store ha-ha. Where are you from Yeti?

Oh, that makes sense. Kinda accustomed to the notion of everyone just taking digital pictures anywhere with their smartphones.
Israel.

Oh I see! That is common here too. "Selfies" and all that.

So is it a pet kind of thing? You take your dog there to have the picture taken with Santa? There's a Petsmart right around the corner from me, I might have to get me some of that.

yeah exactly! I mean you could probably get away with not having a pet but you may get a few funny looks.
