{"quotes":[{"text":"Tony and Peg have two kids, Terry-Lynn and Harvey, both of whom are enrolled in so many extracurricular and afterschool clubs that they hardly ever see their parents. If Terry-Lynn is in Girl Guides, she doesn’t have to see Peg inviting the Purolator man in for “a cup of coffee”. If Harvey is in the anime drawing club, he doesn’t have to see Peg kissing Mr. Cooper from across the street, even if all the other neighbours secretly know what’s going on. Tony has no idea, all he knows is that Peg isn’t the same Peg he married back in 2003. All he knows is that she’s changed a great deal, and not for the better, like a beautiful butterfly regressing back into a devouring, ugly caterpillar in the span of only a couple of months.","author":"Rebecca McNutt","tags":["affair","afterschool","anime","beautiful","butterfly","caterpillar","change","cheater","children","coffee","drawing","extracurricular-activities","girl-scouts","homewrecker","kids","kiss","marriage","neighbours","parents","purolator","street","ugly"],"id":62,"author_id":"Rebecca+McNutt"},{"text":"‪I Have No Sympathy For Gossip Boys \u0026 Girls ‬.","author":"Genereux Philip","tags":["dump","fuck-boys","fuck-girls","fuckboy","fuckgirls","genereux-philip","i-have-no-sympathy-for","inspirational","life-qoutes","motivational","motivations","no-sympathy","life","of-the-day","street","sympathy-for-a-soul"],"id":1310,"author_id":"Genereux+Philip"},{"text":"The sound of diesel fuel rushing through grimy pistons and cylinders below a morning-fogged window bored through his ears like a deep-water drill bit, and the thump of his own heartbeat cursed him for breaking one of his many rules.","author":"Luke Taylor","tags":["air","car","city","coal","curse","diesel","drill-bit","fog","gasoline","grimy","heart","heatbeat","man","noise","petrol","pollution","rules","smog","street","vehicle","window"],"id":1543,"author_id":"Luke+Taylor"},{"text":"I've been all over the place in all kinds of living situations.
