[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.

I can't even.

Yes, you're right, but he was one of those mean-spirited types of guys who got off on the fact that he was a foot taller than me and therefore had a huge reach advantage.

Ah yeah, we get guys like that from time to time. We put them in with the really big guys until they learn to play nice.

He loved being able to win all the time. Big jerk. I wish I'd taken krav back then.

Or SCA fighting. Being big is an advantage. It isn't definitive.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Yeah, but, even at their geekiest music fiends have an interest in something with a bit of cachet.

Like bubblegum pop?

Wow. I never kept a diary in another language/alphabet. I feel not so geeky now. But in a slightly wistful way, not in a gloaty way.

Also, I'm hungry. So I think I'ma go eat early, cause I didn't have lunch.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I kept a diary in dwarf-runes when I was 16

Who didn't?

I didn't keep a diary in the Tengwar or Angerthas or Cirith. Too much work, and I'm a LAZY BASTARD when it comes down to it.

Ai! Laurie lantar lassi surinen Yeni unotime ve ramar aldaron!

However. I do speak it, as much as can be spoken (unless/until Christopher, the jerk, gets over his snit and publishes the grammars for Sindarin and Quenya). They'll never be even as "real" as Klingon (klingonaase) or Esperanto, as there's no contemporary, useful vocabulary. Neologisms in Elvish sound extreeeeeemely contrived...and what's the point? In-context, Elves wouldn't WANT to talk about the social, political, or technical concepts of Man.

Whoops. Off I went again.

See? Warned you I did, yes, Preciousss...he talkssss for hourssss and hoursss and won't SSSSHUT UP.

If I only had a brain...

Christopher Tolkien had a snit?

Tru Calling is on tonight? It says Season Premiere event. I thought it was cancelled.

Tru Calling is on tonight

I think they are running the eps that got shelved instead of Point Pleasant (which got cancelled) I think.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Just want the evil post.
