Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

I like my hotdogs with ketchup, mustard, sweet relish and cheddar cheese. Onna bun.

I had ranch dressing for lunch, with chicken tenders. Yum, but not so filling.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I've recently taken to preferring salsa on my hamburgers, instead of ketchup, but you can't find any restaurant, let alone fast-food place, that'll serve it that way.

You can in San Francisco. Salsa being really common out this way.

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

this sounds like a chance to revenge years of sibling wrongs.

"Tomato red."

Actually, red is the answer (if you can't get adinkre by tomorrow, which she can't). Also, I'm the one at risk of being revenged upon. Let's just say I pro-actively managed our relationship.

Dammit! Why can't I find the Island trailer I saw this weekend? It's none of the three at the Apple site. I'm trying to remember what precisely Ewan said that I'm remembering as "I want one!"

Hey, has no one told the thread about the baby panda at National Zoo yet?

I'm silly happy that it seems to be healthy. Yay for baby pandas!

I quit eating ketchup when I was in high school, but I recently discovered some sort of organic ketchup that doesn't have corn syrup and doesn't taste weird, and have refound my love.

I love mock crab. Possibly more than real crab.

Oooh, Lyra has invented the double secret probation font.

Aha! Found it. "I don't know, but I want one."

I should get back to work.

Coding and Sleeping

Mayonnaise is an abomination. That's in Leviticus somewhere, I swear it.

Are you talking about this passage:

And Moses said to Aaron and to Elea'zar and Ith'amar, his sons, "Do not let the hair of your heads hang loose, and do not partake of the mayonnaise, lest you die, and lest wrath come upon all the congregation; but your brethren, the whole house of Israel, may bewail the burning which the LORD has kindled.

Some say that this was a mistaken translation and Moses was actually speaking about Miracle Whip rather than mayonnaise. After all, Moses had a lot of experience with miracles.

And whips.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Okay, now I am incredibly hungry.
