See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

She also has photos she took in the book that Steve Sqyres wrote.

Nifty! I have an advance uncorrected proof of that book that my mom passed on, and which I pounced on in hopes of Lori-y goodness.

And now, looking at the proof, it's text only, no photos. Phooey. Still, very cool. t /Left Coast praise

It is a good thing he is too drunk to notice that I am posting while he bloviates.

And yet, Gus's coolness remains radiant and magnificent. Anyone who can get so Scotched up he needs to Google the word "father" but can still toss off "bloviates" with such panache is a credit to our entire sorry planet.

ita, many congratulations to yourself, your strength and your determination and your BROWN-BELTED ass.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

ha - I almost forgot, it is very important that we were all wondering how you were doing at your brownbelt test, ita. You were a topic of conversation at Sparky's.

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

Perkins I think we're SOL.

I am afraid you are right. I still want to know what happened between series though.

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

You were a topic of conversation at Sparky's.

That's so sweet.

"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

Having heard Kravback Mountain jokes today, I do agree.

If it gets that fellow krav-er of yours from the Lost party to start macking on guys, it'll be worth any amount of groan-worthy puns.

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

I want filtering software to eliminate the obnoxious screaming of useless females.

I want filtering software to eliminate crappy writers who use the cliché of female hostage-bait.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Hey! Quick post, since I am up past my bedtime (but I had three Vodka tonics!)

1st -- ita! Yeah you! Go on qith yer bad self! Good on you! and I referenced you tonight on my date!

And 2nd-- I survived my date! He was intimidated by how smart and funny I was! I stayed out 1 1/2 hours past my 10 done-date time, and I gave him my number. He said something about "the next time we went out."

I had fun. Dating easier than I remembered.
