"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I don't think F/X will show anything, or Dennis Leary was showing restraint -- their most profanity ridden ep lacked both cunt and nigger, IIRC.

That episode was ALL about playing chicken with the language rules, such as they exist on FX.

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

Yesterday I bought a new phone. The Cingular guy was, I think, flirting with me. In the midst of that, he told me I was scaring him. All I could think was "Sparring partner not punching bag, moron." Still, I was on perfectly polite behaviour with smiles and everything.

And then I was explaining to a co-instructor about opting to not beat people up to teach them a message and he looked at me as I was crazy. I told him I didn't want to earn the rep people claimed I had. He shook his head and walked away.

msbelle needs to come here and follow me around chanting "fluffy bunny."

Reality is slowly unpixillating.

Our perception of reality can be a pixel thing.

"lord love a duck"

My mother and grandmother both used to say that. And I'm pretty sure they weren't dubbed.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Our perception of reality can be a pixel thing.

It all depends on your resolution.

ita, what phone did you get?

Jessica, you mentioned Wrong Trousers elsewhere. There is a new W&G film coming out this fall, I think.

Same one as you. They only had two with Bluetooth, and the other one was almost as expensive and too big. Apparently there are 6 models with Bluetooth online, but my other phone was broken. Didn't want to wait.

FUN! I'm sorry you didn't have more options.

I felt rudely boxed in. I mean, I like the phone, and stuff, but I'd liked to have been able to comparison shop, even a little.

A guy at krav was playing with his new Sprint phone. Looks just like a small camera, except with phone. And is also an MP3 player. Kids these days...

Or maybe you need to get a really froofy pet to accompany you. A pomeranian and name it Precious (hey, it worked for the knife and exacto-wielding bathrobe guy.) And no spike-studded collars.
