Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Hee, Kat. I'll probably just mention it to my mom. Or not. I may wait until I upgrade my bed.

I have to find dark green. Maybe even a dark gold (duvet cover is a dark crimson nubby silk, rug is faux oriental in same.)

I look more rad than Lutheranism

On the "nauseous"/"momentarily"/etc., debate, I have 2 things to say:

(1) One of the characters on The O.C. just used "nauseous" incorrectly, and it happened right about the time I caught the beginning of the discussion about correct usage, so I laughed and laughed.

(2) Groundhog Day Thread.

Also on The O.C. -- dude, *I* made out to that Journey song when *I* was in high school!!!! And I'm 33, yo, so that's saying something.

And they namechecked "Whedon's X-Men"!!! (Which probably didn't need to be whitefonted, but what the hell. Quick-edit makes it so easy to whitefont.)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Beech sheets are actually made from beech trees. They're incredibly silky, but they look like regular sheets instead of slippy slidy satin (they have a faint sheen to them, but only faint). Incredibly soft, and the fabric holds dye beautifully, so if you get 'em in a deep dark color like navy or burgundy they'll stay that way much, much longer than regular cotton sheets.

Hec and I have a burgundy set that's been washed about a dozen times: even softer than when new, slightly less sheeny, but the color is just as dark and rich. I love them so much.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Steph, is he doing a screenplay for that?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What size is your bed, sara? For reference, there are a bunch here.

I really only need to buy one set, for a twin bed, for guests. But the problem is, I look, I don't find, I start to think dangerously about consoling myself.

I need to remember that my PDA is on its last legs, and just focus.

OK, something I've been wondering and getting closer to getting for, oh, probably 5 years: what is Costco? Sort a nonwaltons Sam's Club? More warehousey? Less?

Never seen one.

Hey Steph, if you go to lightbulbs and mention a groundhog day thread, I got your back.

I might even third it.

Okay, I won't, but I'll point and laugh supportively.

There is supportive laughing, isn't there?

Erin, he's writing a new X-Men comic book.

Oooh, options.

Current bed is a full, I think. I'd like to get a bigger one eventually. But when I do, new sheets, new comforter (this one is a barely a full. Sort of 1.5 twin.)
