Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

project notes: subject resists modification exercises and begins to escalate crankiness.

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

I really need to do my objectives sometime BEFORE I meet with my boss on friday

I have no meeting set up, but I need to redo mine. I told them they were obsolete when they entered them months ago, and I was told that wasn't important. Now I've been told to change them. Dude, I didn't write them. Change them to what?

Forgot my lunch, have a terrible headache, and am wallowing in melancholy.

I actually ate fries for lunch, so I'm one up on you, but for the other two, I hear you.

On the upside -- I'm not sure yet. Anyone have any recommendations for a really pretty printing of Hans Christian Andersen with Snow Queen in? I've been Barnes and Noble binging recently.

I was supposed to do them back in um, Feb.

But I'm not the only one!

You Pastafarians are Johnnys-come-lately in the religion world. The Principia Discordia's been around for ages. Hail, Eris! All hail Discordia!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Dude, she was talking to me. I have a head injury on which to blame my recent lack of reading comprehension.

But she was still suggesting that people not you would be the nicest. Otherwise, why look elsewhere?

1. I'm not nice.

2. She was asking me to remember that she was the nicest of you or msbelle.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

ita, this looks lovely. There used to be an edition of HCA illustrated entirely by Arthur Rackham, as well as one by Edmund Dulac, but all my searches of currently in-print books so far haven't come up with anything but books of just the illustrations, no actual tales.

b) HEY! Not grumpy.

(at least right now.)

::checks watch::

How about now? Then how about now? Now?

But she was still suggesting that people not you would be the nicest. Otherwise, why look elsewhere?

As one of the creators and sustainers of this board, ita exists in my mind as larger than any mere list of the nice. She contains, encompasses, and surpasses that list (and is a major arbiter of who does and does not belong on it) and cannot therefore be contained within it, any more than a champagne bottle can be contained within the champagne which it itself contains. It's a whole Beyond Good And Evil thing, only with niceness.

Are you grumpy now?

Hm, all I've got to counter that is hot dogs without buns on Fridays.

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

Timelies all!

I....got nothing else. (Sad, huh?)
