Is there really a proliferation of "Oh, the other guy I've been seeing wins. So sorry!" discussions?
My sister's been on the recieving end of this conversation. It does suck.
Very convincing. Makes me completely want to put myself under government control. Please take me to where you can make me unconscious and naked.

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.

Thanks, ita, brenda and sara! I'll forward all your answers (the combination of them is what really helps, too - if one version is not 100% clear on one detail, the others complete it).
My brother is grateful, too. Is it even more "a stranger on the internet" if he's not in fact the one who's posting? He did know I was going to ask "your Buffy forum people", if that counts.

Am I the last one to know about Google SMS? Because that is WAY COOL.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
No. I think I have the honor of being the last to know about Google betas. Although that particular one does me little good as I have only the most basic cellphone.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Selfishly, I'm hoping that NillyBro's sudden interest in Irvine means grad school, which would of course lead to regular Nilly Grand Tours.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
I'm with ita on the pronunciation thing, fwiw.

amych, you're so sweet!
He needs it for a text he's translating. I'm his proofreader, his "please ask your English-speaking clever educated friends" go-to person, and his "oh, when is the next chapter going to be ready?" local nagger (is "nagger" a word?).
He's translating It Must Be Beautiful: Great Equations of Modern Science.
