Debris was sounding so singular and acting so plural that I was forced to just rewrite the sentence.
I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

I got into a stupid arguement over the word "data" once upon a time. I have to use that word in so many different contexts, sometimes singular, sometimes plural, I may be getting it wrong, but I'm consistently wrong, and I should have just ignored the crazy arguing person.

Er. Did lj just go completely haywire, or do I need to reboot?

It's fine for me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's working for me, shrift.
Please don't reboot the day, though.
Sadly, the mac and cheese is making me feel ill. Harrumph.

Would you like some velveeta& canned chili?
(God, I had a bite of it. 2 hours ago. I'm still feeling gross.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
One of my professors corrected herself the other day after starting to say "the data is...." But she's a recent Ph.D., so I think she feels like she has to be extra-correct now!
I'm eating sugared ginger I bought at the dollar store. Yum. Am also getting presents together, instead of doing schoolwork. It's still stuff that has a deadline soon!

"The fact that we live at the bottom of a deep gravity well, on the surface of a gas covered planet going around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and think this to be normal is obviously some indication of how skewed our perspective tends to be."
A bite of Velveeta is a Velveetum, correct?

Ah. So I'm guessing this is a style+Mac=doom situation. Great. I'll procrastinate by changing mine later.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
