Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

[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.

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

Don't open your door if you don't know who's on the other side, okay?

Woman in San Francisco got her head beat in with a paint can by a schizophrenic homeless guy last year. He knocked on her door. She opened it up. Don't do that.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Susan, you are totally right not to open to door. I have a peep hole in this apartment, but I am too short to see out of it.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It's an adverb that means "in a prayerful manner." So the manner in which the family was excited was in a prayerful manner

But that still leaves us with prayerful defining prayerful

Well, "full of prayer"; or, following the examples of pitifully, "causing prayer," or hopefully, "deleting prayerfully and sticking a '[subject] pray[s]' onto the beginning of the sentence."

So then they were excited in a manner that was full of prayer, which makes as much sense as they were excited in a manner that was full of poetry.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

OK, feeling justified now. It's just that my fear/revulsion reaction in cases like this makes me feel like a bad Christian and a bad liberal simultaneously, which takes some doing.

I guess I should enjoy the rare lack of tension between my religion and my politics....

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

Yes, I have!(To get laid, because I'm so smart I'm stupid...didn't work) But I know all about the AFR! Too bad my French is all "coq au vin" and "Voulez vous coucher avec moi?"

You can do the ominous squeak, I'm sure, even without the French.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Some of them chose to stop eating to shorten their suffering. Hard for me to imagine, but it makes me think that it might be harder for those of us left behind to see the wasting away than for the one who is doing the dying.

Um, yeah. Watched Robin basically waste away (actually, he chose to eat in order to hasten his death. Human body is a weird fucking place, yo). Well, and become a raving madman who had to be on some serious psychotropics. I have definite opinions on the Schiavo case, and they're not kind to her parents.

Sorry, not quite coherent.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

Yes, Susan. Don't open the door for the scary dude.

"Voulez vous coucher avec moi?"

That may be all the French you need, erika.

Always Anti-fascist!

Never do. my neighbor got very upset I didn't let her workman in once. But there are crapzillion cases of women dying at the hands of fake "Workmen" and "carpet layers" They could even dispose of me on the way out. Nuh and uh. Perhaps I should read more cheerful things. Aw, Sean, thanks. Me and Lady Marmalade.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Yes, Susan. Don't open the door for the scary dude.

Susan, do I need to send Pete over so he can deliver the "Don't open the door to people you don't know, especially if they look like crazy people!" speech? It's very impressive and stern.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Susan, do I need to send Pete over so he can deliver the "Don't open the door to people you don't know,

So Sir Paul McCartney and Wings were wrong?

(Of course, Paul wasn't a Sir back then....)
