Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

Spike's Bitches 27: I'm Embarrassed for Our Kind.  

[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.

Non-FAQ readers!

For your information, I searched (but did not actually read) the FAQ page before posting but found no reference to carrots. (Also, it seems that the phrase means different things to Hec and Aimee.)

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I hesitate to even post this, but...

Dylan, I appreciate the apology, but your explanation makes me extremely uncomfortable on Susan's behalf.

Not trying to start any big discussion, just felt like I need to say it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Krav doesn't like carrots.

Hmm. So krav shares your dislike of vegetables? And here I thought it was the head butts that brought you together.

Because books.

For your information, I searched (but did not actually read) the FAQ page before posting but found no reference to carrots.

I will admit I didn't even search. I read the whole FAQ long ago, before delurking (or, well, most of it), but my brain didn't hold onto the carrot info.

Always Anti-fascist!

"The Wire" likes urban carrots. Pelecanos likes funky Greek carrots. David Simon likes gritty Balmer carrots.

Trust my rage

I hope that came across as the joke it was intended to be. I'm always a bit worried about my tone coming across, esp. post-kerfuffle.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I think, if you look at them squinty-eyed, it's the same. Aimee demonstrated the obsession, with an added bit of definition #2: MUST respond to EVERY post to explain how it's really all about ME, who loves BOB.

DED is more an internet-wide thing, and I'm guessing it's because someone thought it was cute and it just caught on, like "My Hed is Pasted on YAY"

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

You're fine, Stephanie.

We're just teasing. It was a later addition to the FAQ.

It totally did. To me, at least.

Just glad I know the deal about Bob and the carrots now.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Bob gets jokes!!!
