Wesley doesn't suck at all
You haven't been reading the right fic.
Am close to the earth, but only because my ankles won't tolerate wearing any kind of heels worthy of the name.
No, no, no, sir. No more chick pit for you. Come on.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Of course some women are closer to the Earth.
I'm so close to the earth I eat handfuls of warm gravel for breakfast. Also you all smell. And I move that my cat is pretty and smells nice.
This kerfuffling thing could catch on.

Chapeau!

Allyson, I saw you on Sunday and there's no question -- you're way closer to the earth than I am. On a not at all related, but somewhat in a way, note... wouldn't it be interesting if people grew down instead of up? Then you'd know how tall you were going to be when you were born, and you'd know when you were done growing when your feet touched the ground. Also, what would loungers look like if our knees bent the other way?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Like in The Phantom Toolbooth. I love that book. Someone should make that into a movie that doesn't suck.

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

But then if your body produced excess growth hormones, your feet would grow into the ground and you'd be planted like a tree.

This is way more like a kerfluffle.

Wait...doesn't that happen in some children's book or something...it's ringing bells. Dully but still ringing.

Wouldn't the day you stopped being able to float kinda suck?

Never read that, now I guess I'll have to.

That's one of the books where if I hear somebody hasn't read it I'm all, "You're so lucky! You get to read it for the first time still!"
