Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Say, Steph, was that seminar by the guy who did the sex tips for slash writers? He's good.

Hmm. His name is Dan Newman. That's all I know.

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

Check out the first place winner of a biggest loser competition. I don't think the guy's a loser because of that, but he's sure not a winner. I teared up, but totally not the same way as last time.

I can't think of a good reason to hate a species, but I suspect I haven't been trying hard enough.

So Ultra Sensitive doesn't mean for the extra delicate? I hate code!

Yeah, apparently condoms all have their own hanky codes, and we just weren't priviledged to it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So Ultra Sensitive doesn't mean for the extra delicate?

Nope. It means the member requires more than the usual amount of stimulation.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Also, the female condom was originally created to be for gay male anal sex, but the manufacturers knew they could never market it that way.

I wonder if this decision was made before or after they discovered that the chief side-effect of this kind of condom is -- squeaking?

I did know about STDs being called STIs, because, if you didn't get infected with it, then it wasn't sexually transmitted. (Thus, genetic syphillis is a disease, while syphillis you went out and caught yourself is an infection. And a nasty one, to boot.)

Are our units per inch?

Oh, dear. That was a sensible sentence in my head, but I couldn't type it without it morphing into lewdness.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Are the bosses riding around the hallways on colorful floats, throwing the beads to the employees?

There is something on the poster about watching out for the managment float in the building tomorrow.

I'm frightened.

Maybe "watching out for" means to hide around the corner armed with a baseball bat?

I'd pay money to see our managers make goofs of themselves. Well, ok not money but...

People are currently being "encouraged" to take various forms of leave. Why? To lower budget projections to avoid another round of layoffs. Budget math is freaky.

The guy who does the sex tips for slash writers was at the con I was at this weekend. He's pretty cute, and very funny, although I missed his panel on the things Guys Can't Physically Do. Dana might remember; I did hear that there were twinkies as visual aids.
