[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.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I don't think we need to kill them. Just thwack them and prevent them from procreating (at least temporarily).

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
t sniff I'm just so touched that you guys want to go around killing people for my sake. I feel truly blessed.
JZ, where might one go about finding this folktale?? I've never heard of it before, but clearly I must read it.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Kate, I found it in a copy of Household Tales by the Brothers Grimm illustrated by Mervyn Peake, a totally random assortment of Grimm tales selected by Peake purely on the basis of which stories made him want to draw something.

From the latest postsecret collection, next to a glitter-added postcard of two people dancing.
(verso) "My mother liked to dance. My sisters and I took her ashes and spread them on our dad's grave. They don't know that I saved some ashes and mixed them with 'glitter' and keep them on my shelf. Mom would be happy about that."

Perkins, yes, and I'm very sorry, but she says she's hanging onto it. Which is the wrong answer for a bunch of reasons in addition to disappointing you, but whatever.
