I forget both my Street number and my phone # from time to time because I so rarely use them anymore. I have accounts with most of the places I order from, so they save my address, and I usually call home from my cell which is on speed dial.
Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

I need a modern fashion trend explained to me. There are several women in my building who have worn khaki or beige cargo pants that are just-below knee length (maybe mid-calf), over tall boots that are usually brown, round-toed, and block-heeled. Now, I will admit that my sense of what is fashionable stopped about a century ago, but this look completely confuses me. Is there someone on the planet it looks flattering on? Did they all join a cult?

he asked, IIRC, about whether or not she learned while she worked in intelligence about the existence of extraterrestrials. She said something like, "I can't talk about that, but I can tell you that the military is obsessed with it!"
Why is it that the combo of that and the current administration's "Why worry about tomorrow? Yee haw!" philosophy makes me feel uneasy?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Someone should give me one of these.
It only costs 3,990円.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It only costs 3,990?.
Is that a roundabout way of saying you've bought me one?

What is even happening?
See now, bon bon's story makes me kind of like Condy. And I don't want to.
Quick! Look at the picture again.
Seriously, I don't need to hate the people to hate their policies. That's one of the elements of a lot of political discussions that bothers me, when I am in the mood to let it--the villification of the person.
Still? That's a scary-as-hell shot of Ms. Rice.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Jilli, I don't think I've seen that down in the Bay Area, but every mental picture I try to construct from your description makes me cringe. I'm terribly sorry for your sake, but I'm hoping it's a cult, and a Seattle-local one. I already spend too much time crying over the "belt across the squishiest part of the hips causing distressing bulges at the waist and pelvis" trend that shows no sign of dying out.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I heart Juliana!
Okay, y'all keep confusing me with your discussion of Julianna Margulies' outfit, as I keep doing a double-take.
Jilli, I cannot explain that trend to you, as I find it (and most cropped pants) an abomination.
JZ - it's not confined to Seattle, as I often see it here.

I will just be happy when the teenagers stop wearing tight low-rise pants. Because no one looks good with rolls coming over their pants and teenage girls should be encouraged to wear close that fit. Also, I wish they would embrace shirts to cover their stomachs.

It's so ... well, unflattering, for one, and kinda silly-looking in a not-terribly-fun way, either.
The product I'm working on this time around at MS has a higher percentage of *very* fashion-conscious women in the building, which means that I get even more startled looks than usual.
