"All The Things"

<p>From my D; She and her roomie enjoy referring to " All The Things"…and something about a meme…???</p>

<p>"This is Why I’ll Never be an Adult
I have repeatedly discovered that it is important for me not to surpass my capacity for responsibility. *Over the years, this capacity has grown, but the results of exceeding it have not changed. </p>

<p>Normally, my capacity is exceeded gradually, through the accumulation of simple, daily tasks. "</p>

<p>I <em>love</em> Hyperbole and a Half. Her stories about her simple dog just kill me. Looking forward to the book.</p>

<p>Already forwarded. Thanks for posting! (Now it’s off to the bank. . . )</p>

<p>Shrinkrap, thanks for the chuckle this morning as I go off to do my ‘adult things’. Funny, even at 49 I still sometimes feel that way.</p>

<p>Oh I love Hyperbole & a Half. My favorite one is “Sneaky Hate Spiral.” We reference it at work all the time :)</p>

<p>Heh, heh! 56 years old and at this very moment I am obviously failing at “CLEAN ALL THE THINGS!”.
'have forwarded to offspring.</p>

<p>hmac,
Do not feel failing, hire to “CLEAN ALL THE THINGS!”, very worthwhile. I have never “CLEAN ALL THE THINGS!”, I did not care if we could afford it or not. Only 2 options were available in our family: live with “all dirty things” or hire to “CLEAN ALL THE THINGS!”. Sometime it was the first one…we survived, although I hated “all the things being dirty”.</p>

<p>Oh, c’mon mods, how can you deny a link to the genius that is hyperbole and a half? :wink: :slight_smile: :D</p>

<p>I have so many favorites, but there’s always a special place in my heart for the first story I read there, “The God of Cake”. It so perfectly captures the mad sugar lust that lurks inside small children. And, uhm, older children. Much, much older. ;)</p>

<p>Oh, I also love Hyperbole & a Half. Like SlitheyTove, my favorite is the first one I ever read, although it’s a different story; it’s the one about dogs not understanding basic concepts like moving.</p>

<p>Excuse me while I go re-read that one, and catch up on new posts!</p>

<p>D says she does not post much now, as she is working on the book.</p>

<p>Yes, I just checked, and the most recent post, from back in May, is about the book (due out in Fall 2012).</p>

<p>But her posts are very re-readable. I love her stories about the simple dog and the helper dog!</p>

<p>Yes! Simple dog! :)</p>

<p>I am so very sorry that you turned me onto this blog-i ve hurt myself laughing !! My entire office thinks i ve lost it !!</p>

<p>Have loved this blog since the beginning. It’s one that all of my Ds read and we often talk about Allie as if we know her. :slight_smile: A wonderfully funny person.</p>

<p>After listening to me rant about a grammar pet peeve, DD sent me a link to the post called “The Alot.” I love this blog and can’t wait for her book! (Our dogs are kindred spirits.)</p>

<p>For all you “Clean ALL the things!” Hyperbole and a Half fans: [Occupy</a> ALL the streets!](<a href=“Memebase - All Your Memes In Our Base - Funny Memes - Cheezburger”>Occupy ALL the Memes!! - Memebase - Funny Memes)</p>

<p>There’s a new post on the Hyperbole and Half blog–Adventures in Depression. Helps explain why there haven’t been new posts in a while.</p>
