Nutty, you were namedropped a bit this weekend. Although now I don't remember why.
Wesley: All right. I'm going to let you all in on something you may have trouble comprehending. I assure you however-- Gunn: Vampires are real. Wesley: I was telling!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I love that the reason for the panda kindergarten is, essentially, that pandas have crap social skills and need to learn some. I just have this image of an adult panda dressed in a leisure suit, going up to a hot lady panda at a panda bar, and hitting on her awkwardly and getting whacked in the face with a paw for his effort.

Holy GOD the baby pandas are so cute I CANNOT stand it.
The one attached to the human's leg? so cute.

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

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

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

This is actually one of the big questions I have about panda breeding programs in general -- one of the major reasons pandas are endangered is because they have little to no interest in mating. I would be totally sad if they became extinct and all, but shouldn't we be concentrating our efforts onto species that WANT to survive?

No! They're cute!
Why are pandas uninterested in mating? Is this a new thing? If so, is it our fault in any way? If it's not, why are they now in danger? Is that our fault?
And then there's the cute thing.

Pandas are cute. They have a cute-mandate to survive. Vultures, despite their general usefulness and smartastica, are not cute. (Luckily, they're not endangered either.)

It was the pants, I know it. My pants-reputation precedes me across the continent.

Nah, I think I needed someone more snarky and less invested in OMG Pretty Boys Fucking around me. (Although Dana and Shrift totally brought the snark, but I didn't get to hang with them as much as I'd meant to...)
Also? Slash grandmothers just freak me the fuck out. @@
