I just made chocolate-covered strawberries. I can lick that bowl any day!
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

[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.

Timelies. My tiaraee's tiara is tending towards transmittal very soon. Yay!
One link away from the jargon Rio linked to is this: The Tech Model Railroad Club at MIT, one of the wellsprings of hacker culture. The 1959 "Dictionary of the TMRC Language" compiled by Peter Samson included several terms that became basics of the hackish vocabulary (see esp. foo, mung, and frob). Bet there are some really interesting stories about the TMRC.
Never been married, but friends who have have said that it's really hard to find time to eat on the wedding day, and that they wished they'd made time for a decent meal, even if it involved sneaking away at some point. Having normal blood sugar is apparently a good thing.
Okay, that's one cute tuxedo cat, Epic Tangent.
I'm taking care of the real Java Cat's mortal enemy while his owners are away. He's followed me there twice so far. The first time, I saw something as I left the house, and looked. He'd jumped up on the porch railing and was watching me play with Phoenix through the window. When I came out and saw him, he was really pissed off and didn't hestitate to say so. It took him about 1 hour and a long walk up the hill to cool down. (who says cats aren't like dogs?)

Will someone remind me that people will still love me even if my cake is the ugliest thing on the planet?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
vw, people love you for who you are, not the prettiness of your cake.

Always Anti-fascist!
Of course. And I bet it will taste very good, which is the point.

At this point, I'm hoping that the powdered sugar covers A LOT of ugliness!

I've made some pretty ugly cakes and there are people who still love me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
vw, cake with that much chocolate does not have to be pretty. It's what's inside that counts.
And there's no cake in the 'verse that could make people love you less. More, maybe, but no way less.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Okay, that's one cute tuxedo cat, Epic Tangent
Thanks! I almost named him Tuxedo, but I noticed the two black spots on the back of one of his white paws, so he became Domino.
vw, people will still love you if your cake is the ugliest thing in the galaxy.
Plus, I'm betting all kinds of nummy, even if less than aesthetically pleasing.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
vw, what kind of horrible, judgemental people could you possibly know who would look badly at the person who worked hard making a fun party and delicious homemade cake for them? Come on, homemade cake is THE BOMB, no matter how it looks. I just can't imagine you could hang out with anyone who would react with anything but delight.
