Huh. That sounds like something I absolutely must own.

[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.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

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."

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
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.

They have a bunch of them on Overstock.com, Lee. Might be cheaper than a regular store.

Still would cut down on the prospects for the already unlucky.
I'm not sure I understand the connection. If we're only killing or harming those who have already dumped Buffistae, where's the problem? How does that cut down on anybody's prospects?

We couldn't let the word get out that dating a Buffista might be fatal. Perhaps the deaths could come years later, in seemingly random ways.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No shit. If you told me I had to date for life/until I was dumped -- or risk death/beatings.
Well, okay, I'd take the challenge, but that's not exactly a recommendation, is it?

Aha! Now I see the issue.
Okay, well.... We'll try and be really stealthy. Or something.

JZ has a new tag. And Kate may have a new Dave Carter tagline, or it could be the same one. I just spent two hours in the library copying papers and listening to Snow Patrol and Green Day, so my brain is all gone.
