Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Is there any other way to stare at the style guide? Other than disgustedly?

Well, sometimes it has answers. Not answers I think are actually, y'know, elegant or helpful, but at least answers in the "This is how it has always been done" vein.

I prayed with them to GET THEM TO GO AWAY. That took another 10-15 minutes.

I think I would have started screaming at them. Full, top-of-my-lungs screaming GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT. But then, when I'm that upset & crying, any sense of tact I have has already left the building.

I thought at first that by Interpol, you meant the band and wondered what the problem was.

Interpol the band is welcome to chat me up. My past treatment at international border crossings leads me to believe that Interpol the organization has been circulating my description.

anyone other than a very close friend and/or my brother who attempts to engage me in any way while I am crying will meet my VERY LOUD self with extra rage as a free bonus. Seriously? What the hell is wrong with people?

These women had the best of intentions, even if I didn't appreciate them. Without going into too much detail, I didn't want to piss them off because I didn't know who they were.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Anybody who asked me to pray would receive a request that they hand over their underwear forthwith. I have discovered, when trying to explain why religious intrusivism is so uncomfortable, that equating religion with underwear works very well.

Sure, you might let your best friend wear your bra. Your SO might like to see you in a particular thong. But if a total stranger walked up to you and started offering you his/her underpants, you would think that person was a frightening weirdo, and you would be right.

And that is why metaphors are good.
