Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[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.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

Is "prayerfully" even a fucking word?
It is. Not that I like its usage in this context.

To some people it's the philosophy on which they base their every waking hour. "Well, we got lost, then we prayed about it, and God helped us find the freeway."
Actual quote.

The heir to the Jacuzzi family hit on me pretty hard once. I thought it was a job interview.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Is "prayerfully" even a fucking word?
I can't figure out how to make it one. It's being used as an adverb, but I can only make it mean- in a way that suggests prayer- which doesn't work in the context.

Nora, I'm sorry your day (and boss) is treating you so badly.

Up with the sun
I feel equally horrible about the idea of her starving to death
What's upsetting about that to me is, clearly, there are kinder ways for her life to end, probably many of which are easily available in her nursing home. If the courts and her husband have decided she would not want to live in this state, why slow starvation instead of a relatively quick overdose of painkillers? We treat convicted murderers better.
(I understand that, in the eyes of the law, there's a difference between removing life support and actively killing someone, but the life support removal seems crueler in this case.)

I think I know what they're going for, a sort of reverent, no-party-hats,optimism and peace but those people? Scare me. And they make me want to heave.

Because that removes the option of a miracle.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think people are prayerfully waiting for a miracle - for God to replace the fluid with brain.
