"syphilis"
Now there will be bad dreams, with sibilant snake creatures. Hissing.
Thanks.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hey, I think the funny syphilis might be charming.
No, wait, I'm lying.

Don't take the A train. (Bugmenot.)
It seems that a homeless man set his shopping cart on fire. The resulting blaze made it impossible to use the C line; the A line is now trying to carry the traffic of C and A combined.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Tell me about it.

Betsy, do you still have the link for those little infant socks with the mary janes? (That was you right? If not, see below.)
P-C: I learnt all my crazy talk from The Man. Science was learnt from the young. Be young. Don't be The Man.

Yes, because trying to decipher that made my head explode.

Semi-seriously: If the homeless thing has reached the Unknowing Mid-West, has some kind of threshold been passed?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Gus, I am so aghast at your unwanted housesitter and your inability to evict him unaided due to Homeowning While Black that I find myself forced to cobble together a new not-a-word in order to adequately convey the expression on my face. I'm sitting here reading the thread, slack-and-flabberjawed.

I think if I came home from a long trip to find a stranger who had taken possession of my house I would just sit down on the spot and DIE.

I have no idea how I'd react. I'd like to think it would involve a large stick, or perhaps one of the knives, but it's hard to say. It would probably take me on the order of minutes if not quarter-hours to actually believe it was happening.
"This is the sort of thing that happens to Gus, not me!"
Famous last words.
