I keep getting warnings from LJ that my password is too easy to guess. Possibly because there are actual words in it. Still, considering it's a string of obscenities, it's going to take a bit of guessing.

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

I'd try to be a little more politic when responding to the criticisms of the Jane Austen Society in North America

But! But! The swim in the lake scene was un-Austenlike tittilation! It was what people bitched about before (although most rightfully didn't because delicious wet Firth and a pretty lovely adaptation) there were boar bits to be mad about.

The boar? Is the new lake.

eta: God, I'm a loser.

"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

Mine's a string of words, but there's one person on the planet other than me who might guess it in sequence. They can keep their numbers.

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

"They can go jump in a lake."

Good line. Old-fashioned. Sort of makes you wonder -- if The Manchurian Candidate were made today (I know they remade it already, shush), when the barkeep accidentally triggers Laurence Harvey with the cards, what happens if he says the modern equivalent to the above, to wit: go fuck yourself?

Sometimes my brain hurts.

The boar? Is the new lake.

It could be the hour (it's already tomorrow here), but I just love the way this sentence makes sense, and I don't care if that makes me any kind of loser.

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

The boar? Is the new lake.

Ooh, so are we thinking the retort was a reference to that? Cause that would be pretty cool.

connie, anyone with a password that doesn't have a number or non alphanumeric character in it gets that message

Mine's just words, but I have yet to get such a message. Maybe lj doesn't really care if anyone guesses my password.

Matt, I keep telling you, "ImpeachTheShrub" is not that hard to guess. Seriously, though.

If it's not, I'm a way bigger loser than originally projected.

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

I just had to email people in NY to ask them to do something that a) I know how to do, and b) have time to do, but c) thanks to our lovely IT set up, spent 6 minutes on a pay per minute web site and still hadn't gotten to any page that would let me enter a search strategy.

Kind of hate that.
