Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Aha, see? I knew it was a freakish thing to do.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

vw, that is a fantabulous email. You are on a roll!

I can't wait to read the expanded version of your paper. Since I came late to the online fandom, I missed the whole Bronze phenomenon and the background was fascinating to read.

~ma to anyone who needs it. Just when I think I'm caught up.....

They have them in the frozen section of my mom's suburban supermarket

They have them at one grocery store near me. Soybeans are yummy. My daughter doesn't like them, but she's a really picky eater.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

You eat the pod, David? Huh.

That's where all the vitamins are. Tastes good.

And, Hec? Amy says you have to stop picking on me. She emailed me just now and said so. Pffth.

She would totally back me up if I pointed out I am trying to save your life from your unrepetent carnivorousness.

Don't make me send you bags of edamame.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I sometimes eat the pods at restaurants - if I bite down on the pod and the bean pops into my mouth, I don't eat the pod. But I buy the preshelled for home. (edited for reduced Yodaness)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Provide each diner with a small plate on which to place discarded pods, which are fibrous and fairly inedible.

Bullshit! They serve them cooked at the asian noodle house, and they're great. Honestly, they're addictively good. They wok toss them with a brown garlic sauce.

What is even happening?

They have them in the frozen section of my mom's suburban supermarket, I notice, so they might be lurking near you, Cindy. I love them and I never met a kid who didn't like eating them, and they are a snap to fix, so they might be worth checking out.
I am always in the market to turn the kids onto a new veggie. I don't want them to end up like C*nnie, do I?

(Let Parker come over here and defend her, says I. *wistful*)

Now tagless for your comfort.

Cashmere, what's up with Vicki's? They don't want the buxom all of a sudden? That's nuts. I am lucky I'm still wearing a 36.

Sizist bastards. I really should try to get back down to a 38--then at least I'd have a shot. I think they'll still carry the boobalicious sizes online but every once in a while, I like to walk into the store and buy something pretty.

erika, we'll be doing the 15-18th so I hope we're not cutting it too closely. The place we're staying has a nice pool, though, thankfully. I don't much care for hellishly hot heat.
