Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Almare, it's Mallory James: Raquel "If the Apocalypse Comes, Beep Me" Mar 20, 2005 11:43:42 pm PST
[Edited to wave at Laura. I find it annoying when some people in the house are on vacation, but others aren't. Everybody should have vacation time!]

Bestest xpost is to edit to say hi to Nilly while she edits to say hi to me! I'm all smiley now.

Bestest x-post is me seeing your edit and wanting to type that x-posting "hi"s is the best x-post, and coming to your post saying the same thing.
I wish I had time to join the ongoing discussion, which seems really interesting. Sigh. Maybe I'll actually catch up, though. I hadn't done even that in a while.

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "
Thank you for pitying my slowness.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hey, Nilly!
I just googled "center cannot hold" because I couldn't work out why I was associating it with Chinua Achebe. That question is now answered but not before the coincidence that victor's name pops up in the blurb of the second google hit!

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "
Awwww, it sounds cute, adorable, and wonderful. Awwwww. I'm feeling warm and fuzzy and now contemplating reproduction myself.
Mallory James...

Oh, ita!
I was just talking to a friend who finished a PhD here, and for some reason the conversation went to "why wouldn't anyone make tv shows about physicists?", and from there it was a short way for him to start casting the other students around here (meaning, who would play them in a tv show/movie). So it was all fun and games, and then he said that I should pick who would play me. Of course, I had no idea. So who did he pick? Halle Berry.
I wanted to shout "no! ita would never talk to me again!", but I didn't get to explain the whole not-so-invisible-friend-from-the-internet thing. Right then a student I TA came into the room with a question and I had to actually work and stuff.
