Staff: Hey, can one of you help me fix--
IT: Go away before I replace you with a very small shell script.
Book: Yes, I'd forgotten you're moonlighting as a criminal mastermind now. Got your next heist planned? Simon: No. But I'm thinking about growing a big black mustache. I'm a traditionalist.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I bet you liked this one:
Help Desk #1: Who should we send?
Help Desk #2: Let's send [Jessica].
Help Desk #3: She's perfect.
Help Desk #2: Of course, she's female.
Help Desk #1: Yeah, she's very female!

Bwah! I missed that one -- Bloglines has weird gaps in what they pick up sometimes.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I managed to knock the gas cap off its resting spot when I was filling up my car today. Of course, it landed under the car and I had to lie down on the ground to get it. ick...

Looks like congress is getting ready to make cuts in Medicaid, child support enforcement, and student loans while passing tax cuts that are completely exclusive to people with high incomes.
Nice

Now tagless for your comfort.
Those tax cuts exceed the spending cuts as well, Gud. Nice of them to dig us DEEPER into debt while claiming they're cutting spending.

My minivan has a little tether for the gas cap. They should all do that, maybe most cars do now, my car that doesn't is a '94.

Haven't noticed that.
All my rentals have, though. Very sensible.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Sheryl, if the station's not too busy, next time it happens, move the car so you can reach the cap. Not a viable alternative if the station is busy, however.
No, of course this never happened to me. Why do you ask?
