The Austin Hit List: or It's My New Favorite...

Saying
"Oh, you're my new best friend! Replacing my old best friend, Meg!" - me to Meg for doing something nice, like loaning me her cool zip-up hoodie or giving me a silver sheriff's star

New Person
Austin Mike's girl Lynn. Yes, because she is sweet and cute and interesting and wonderful to our friend Mike, but also, it is rare you have a moment with another girl where you get to wax nostalgic about comic books. Particularly DC comics. Boys always want to talk Marvel and Punisher and Image. Girls might mention old Archie comics. But a girl who not only read DC comics but who cites the 80s relaunch of The Spectre (the Jim Corrigan years) as her favorite comic of all time?
Yes, Austin Mike's girlfriend is awesome.

Totally Inappropriate Thing to Shout on a Mini-Golf Course
"If I had a white board right now it would say 'cocksucker'." - Meg after missing a putt, right before the ten-year-old rolled up behind us.
Really, the most shocking thing about this is actually that Mike didn't say it.
