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.

What about the domestic brackets...I thought California ones were every bit as good as the French, but the French has more snob appeal.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

vw, I got your giftie yesterday. I'm very excited to send it to you!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I suspect feel-copping

Good point. Who wouldn't want to grope vw?

That's marketing, babe. You gotta separate the yups from their green.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I knew you were mocking, Spidra. I was just being bitter at the situation.

Now you see why I need a special dispensation to use emoticons. Me so confused!

Honestly, that sucks, Betsy. I've got Edward Tufte's poster about PowerPoint hanging right outside my cube. [link]

Good to know...ok, then, fewer accents next time.

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

And possibly soup-swiping as I suspect the soup isn't nearly as bad as she thinks.

Like, she's SURE its an F but its B+ soup. Like that.

Yeah, I would totally eat vw's F-minus soup based on previous calibrations of vw's standards.

No longer a grade whore - now a soup whore. That's my vw.

On the subject of evil PowerPoints (what?), K-Bug has to do them frequently for school. She did one on histiocytosis (the rare blood disease that she has) that came out very nice...I am so proud of her. All her treatment happened before she was 3, so she only knows of it through the stories we tell. It was good to have her research the disease herself and learn more about it. I get to be a visual/vocal aid for her presentation...after she gives the facts, I get to talk about the reality of discovering your kid has an orphan disease that doctors know very little about.

What is even happening?

vw, said she was having an otherwise rough day, regardless of the soup going pear-shaped. I'm pretty sure when vw's not having a bad day, she knows bad soup isn't going to be a big deal to Emily, and isn't a big deal to vw. If I were having a crappy day, said so, and then vented about my bad soup, and then people were teasing, it's possible I'd be crying right now, reading this thread. ijs.
