Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I know! I was just going to say that resembled the ILM line drawings.

"Awww.... who's the cute little wee dark lord?"

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Wee!Vader is the cutest thing EVAR! Plus his galoshes just add that final touch of BWAH to the picture.

Swouncing

I was just brattily nitpicking about a GPA not being a statistic

Never apologize about having fun with numbers!

I love he jeans tucked into galoshes

Galoshes are the rubber-sort-of-boots that he's wearing? So that he could jump into puddles without getting his feet wet and his parents worried?

Yep. Galoshes on kids are adorable x 10.

When we were in Hawaii a few years ago, there was a kid in shorts and red galoshes who was marching around a restaurant. He was cute enough to scoop up.

I can't even.

Known as wellie (for wellington) boots where I come from. I agree with y'all that the boots totally make that costume.

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

I say swan off now, Vortex.

I use the round-to-evens rule in all cases because that way I only have to remember one rule, rather than deciding which one to use in each case. But that's just me.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Galoshes used to also be called "rubbers," but that's gone out of common usage, for obvious reasons.

I was going to swan off now because I forgot the beer at home for the post-work softball game. But I'll just swan off early and hit the store pre-game.

But, you, Vortex, should clearly swan off and have lunch options.

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

Vortex! Happy belated birthday!

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Thanks! Oh, and it occurs to me that someone might have wished me a happy birthday on Tuesday (Nilly, I'm looking at you!), but since I came back to over a thousand posts, I skipped like a skipping thing. so, if you did, thanks!
