I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!  

[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.

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "

Tuesday's.

Andromeda's Tyr would just cut Baldir off by say no, and go away to practice his aim, or oil himself or something.

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

oil himself or something.

With the fat of his enemies.

He's hot.

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "

Less hot, though more regularly available.

Oy, they are equally hot, only one's a bit of a idiot, and the other is, well, the Tyr that has adjective's either flee from or to his description. Right now, they are on flee.

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "

With the fat of his enemies.

Only the pretty ones or the excellent fighters. I can't imagine him oiling himself with Magog fat.

Maybe he used that for his candles.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'm watching Mile High right now. I think my tv just melted.

edit: Oh SHIT! Okay, I might have seen some of this coming but I still wasn't expecting that . And there's still 20 more minutes to go.

In the recent Neocon fuss over the “attack on Christmas” we saw a vocal group that wants to keep Christianity at the center of American culture and public discourse. I’ve always wondered why these people have never started a campaign to change the names we use for days of the week. I mean, aren’t they the slightest bit offended that every day of the week has the name of a pagan god? Do they see no irony in a phrase like “Thank God it’s Friday (Friggs day)? Frigg was a goddess, a witch, and a feisty liberated female who was the equal of any male. The horror! Even the Christian day of worship is named after the sun god. Something must be done about this.

I suppose it helps that these folks generally are pretty ignorant, and that they are only upset by new ideas, not old ideas, even when the new ideas are consistent with, and the old ideas are inconsistent with what they claim as their core beliefs.

Hey. New board.

My Christmas was fast-paced (four days running with at least 3 hours of driving. Today was 6.) but tolerable - nobody in my family made me grit my teeth too much this Christmas, which was a nice change.

Also, I nominate Almare for Queen of the Thread, and think the next thread title needs to have something to do with Zeus/Loki, Spike be damned.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Different traditions have different concerns. Quakers traditionally said "first day, second day" for the reasons you mention. I think some puritains did too. Jehovah's Witnesses care about the non-christian origins of Christian holidays and don't celebrate them but they'll say "Monday." Baptists and Methodists wouldn't drink. Some Seventh Day Adventists keep a modified form of kosher but I don't think they care about the drinking (and they shot off from the Baptists). Its hundreds of years of self-identification (tradition IS a huge factor) and "picking your battles" coming into play not necssarily blaring ignorance.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I can't imagine him oiling himself with Magog fat.

Pokes her nose into Tyr's room to just, you know, see what he's up to. Sheesh, what's that stench? What are you burning in here? Man, no wonder you ain't getting any here in spite of being hotter than a Ferrari in Dollar Store parking lot.
