Hm. Do your guys know somebody they respect up here in the People's Republic?
Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs.
Giles: In that case I've severely underpriced it.

I am wimpy, hear me whinge.
Is it just here, or does everyone spell it "whinge" nowadays? I'm a traditionalist--it's "whine" for me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yes, but you get bruised and stuff.
I get bruised from breathing. Don't mind me.
There is more fitness training than in your average self defense class (well, not compared to Allyson's kickboxing, but compared to short-term courses), but the point is that if you're attacked, panic is going to exhaust you immediately. If you can't defend yourself tired, you can't feel safer.
It's the running, ita, that makes me feel like throwing up. And hitting Polgara.
Running depends on your instructor -- some never warm you up that way, others (which now seems to include me) will get folks running the second there's enough space. The hitting people is pretty universal, but if it's sparring hitting that bothers you, that's not mandatory until green or blue belt, depending on your tester. There's only one instructor who makes you do it at yellow -- it's a thing.
Have a look here, Betsy.

Do you pronounce a "g"?

What is even happening?
Maybe whinge is a more of a Briticism, Kathy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, wait -- whine and whinge aren't pronounced the same, are they?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!

Spent the weekend at a con in Atlanta. Had fun, other than proving that I'm a Danger To Myself and Others(well, mostly myself) on Saturday. Hit my forehead against a metal bar in the shower as i bent down to turn off the water, and later stepped on my right foot with my pump-clad left foot. Bruising has occurred.

And they're damned lucky.
In theory, that's my route home. But instead I go for the 405 all the time, because I fear the canyon roads even in good weather.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Now THAT'S a rock!
Holy ass.
