Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Emily, can you hook up with someone else taking the exam and study together? SOmetimes you just need to explain it to someone else to remember what you know, if that makes sense.

Excellent idea. Especially since it'll make me feel better -- I tend to get all tense thinking everyone else going into teaching math will be math geniuses, despite knowing that other intended high-school math teachers in my classes are... not. I mean, they're smart people, and I like them, but they're not, like, Hil or anything.

Also, -t, the Abstract Algebra and differential equations were for high school. Middle school teachers only need Algebra (er... concrete algebra? I kind of thought algebra was abstract in and of itself) and calculus through integrals. Doesn't that make you feel better?

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

I assumed it was a gay joke. I couldn't figure out quite *how* it was a gay joke, mind, but that's where my mind tends to go when the words "Tom Cruise" and "top" are juxtaposed.

You and me both, LJ

Hey, does anyone use Quicken Billpay? if so, how much does it cost. I bought quicken this weekend to use for billpaying, and was idly reading the box (before I opened it), and there is a footnote saying that there "may" be a charge. I just want to know how much it is. There's no answer on the website, and the "technical Assistance" is $24.95. It's a decent product, and would help me manage my money better, but they're pissing me off. I CAN and WILL return!!

Rick, didn't you used to be Rik? Or have I somehow, bizarrely, mixed you up in my mind with the Young One?

...at which point I suddenly realized that I have mixed up the Young Ones and French and Saunders theme songs in my head. "The Young Ones... ooeeooeeoo..."

All in all, if I have to be spammed, I prefer to be the target of these literate spammers with a sense of humor.

All I ever get is spam from eBay about my account being suspended (note: I do not have an account), same from midwestern banks I've never heard of, and incomprehensible non-roman characters from lively people in China.

I get the eBay and bank spam threatening to close my nonexistent account if I don't do something (to which I say, please do!) and offers to make my sperm taste better (um...), but also the lovely Adjective Q. Gerund emails.

And on my fanfiction-only account, I occasionally get Cyrillic email. Which may or may not be spam. Who knows?

Cherry flavored? Grape? Diet sperm?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Increase the size of your Cyrillic!

Refinance your Cyrillic!

Attention! Your computer may be infected with Cyrillics!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I finally got a task to do! Yay! Of course, it's re-doing the single task I did last week.

That's AWESOME. I like Brooke so much more all of a sudden.

I've always really liked her, but I'm positively giddy that she came out swinging in response to Cruise's remarks. He should have picked on someone his own size.

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

A shot against Gary Coleman is always a cheap shot.
