This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!  

[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.

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

Yes, but -- you read the whole story, right? Flirting with someone after telling her that you're not attracted to her? That's just a mindfuck, and not the kind I like.

I did read the whole story. I don't think he was mindfucking with Machiavellian or evil intent. I think he (a) underestimated how much he hurt you (b) wanted to show that he still likes you (perhaps guiltily, but probably still genuine) (c) wanted to smooth things over in the group dynamic (d) is a bit clueless on how the whole thing played out.

Wait - what about me? I sincerely believe that I don't know the cosmic answers and that we should all be groovy toward each other whilst we party on. Am I protected? Is Bill-and-Tedism a recognized religion?

Agnosticism is also protected.

I have just gotten a referral for plastic surgery. The office of said plastic surgeon is, naturally, in one of our richest suburbs. The good thing is that it will most likely be covered by my insurance. (I'm getting a scar removed.) That's been the most exciting thing about my day.

You movie star! Stay away from cheek implants, though okay? And no collagen in the lips. And I don't like eye-lifts when they're too tight. That's freaky.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I did read the whole story.

In my LJ?

Now tagless for your comfort.

I sincerely believe in Flying Spaghetti Monsterism.

I'm totally a Pastafarian.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

He was calling to invite me to submit opinions, or other types of articles for his online news service.

All right! That sounds very flattering (and understandable, considering how well written your letter was).

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Oh good lord, yes. I have never seen one of those that didn't freak me right out.

No you don't. You're insincere, and not only will the FSM pass you by, but the Great Pumpkin as well.

And if you watch ROBOT CHICKEN you know this is a good thing.

Our wings are not tired.

Whee! I sent it super cheap slow boat and didn't know how long it would take.

Giggles at the thought of Juliana being brainwashed by evil suburban plastic surgeons. Will we have Stepford Juliana in our future.

Gotta go to the bus stop....

I think the Stepford surgeons would use juliana as their template for all other stepford wives.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Happy Belated Birthday, Nora!!! I'm sorry I missed it yesterday.

I left Annabel alone for a minute to go get the phone from the other room. I came back to find her sitting on the couch, paging through Self-Editing for Fiction Writers with a look of utter concentration.

Too cute!!!

Teppy, sorry that Crush!Guy is being asshat.
