Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Plei, I was riding yesterday and there was a horse at the center there that was 17 hands 2. I felt like a hobbit looking up at him.

I knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve. - John Prine

From today's kausfiles:

In May, Yale cyberlaw expert Ernest Miller noticed an astonishing tidbit in a Los Angeles Times story on the Toronto police Sex Crimes Unit's pursuit of pedophiles:

All but one of the [over 100] offenders they have arrested in the last four years was a hard-core Trekkie.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

frigging=fucking

Does it ACTUALLY mean fucking, like, somewhere in the world or is it in that darn=damn, heck=hell way?

Oh, and I choose to believe that Jude Law is a grower.

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

Dunno.

I once read a translation of something by Sade where they use the word frig to mean to masturbate someone. So frigging != fucking. (eta: in that book anyway.) (Is it masturbation if you do it to someone else? Or just a hand-job? Can a man give a hand-job to a woman? I feel so... naive.)

ION, Strange fossil defies grouping

525 million years old. So sorta trilobite-ish, at least to my untrained eyes.

eta: Or not. Not exactly. But from The Time of the Trilobites. I think.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

My understanding was that the verb "to frig" meant to manually masturbate a woman.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

dang, I missed Rio.

I've never liked "shite" either. It just grates on me.

Me too- my mother and aunt (completely American) would say "shite" and "fook" all the time and it drove/drives me insane. I finally just had to say, "OK, I know you think you're all cute and eccentric sounding, but IT'S STILL SWEARING! Albeit swearing in a very annoying fake accent-y way"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I totally clicked through to that Jude Law picture directly after sitting in a meeting where people were discussing the filtering software in place. Needless to say, I had to wait until I got home to actually see it.

Also, I feel the need to say that some men are growers and some are showers. (show-ers, not like for cleansing.) Also, due to watching all of the 4th season of Oz last weekend, I have greatly added to the number of penises I've seen on screen. Including Luke Perry.

My husband knew a woman who thought those lyrics were "Burned to death!"

Ooh, was it me?!?! Oh wait, I don't actually know Mr. Hernadet. But I do have to concentrate still to hear that right.

ION, I am so full of Indian food I may never eat again. Except for all the leftovers I have in the fridge.
