No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

[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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETE!! A bit of poetry for you on this, your natal day.

Pete is a Brit.
He has the dry wit.
He hangs with The Bitches
And takes all our shit.

Compassionately intolerant

This is a fun scary interesting phase.

Seriously. Both.

I'm not confused, or anything...just pendulum swingy.

AngelBeej:"Oh hey, I'm feeling totally secure and ready for the future. Trala."

DevilBeej:"Are you crazy? There is a noisy, messy male in my SPACE. The Hell? And he's bound to be just like all the rest. And did I mention the not putting the lid down thing? Un.bee.leave.able. And, what about the not thinking the same way I do about money...and phone calling...and...and did I mention the lid?"

AngelBeej:"But there are those beautiful eyes...and that gaze...and those strong arms...and that responding to nearly every request I make almost instantly. And the wanting to be the best he can be for me. And loving my body...especially when I don't. And..."

Hey, married/committed folk (and, no, I don't mean the nuthatch types), does that dialogue ever end? It's been so long since I was married, I can't recall.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

(To the tune of "Happy Birthday")....

Happy Birthday to Pete;
He's really quite neat;
He draws pretty pictures;
And we all think he's sweet!

Nevermind - I misread Beej's post.

Nope, never ends.

(I have no reading comprehension today.)

I carrot this the most.

In Jon Favreau's little teeny romcom Love & Sex, Famke Jannsen has a speech about how, over time, saying I Love You becomes as comfortable as having a cheese sandwich.

"I cheese-sandwich you."

If I only had a brain...

That would be a big ol' NO.

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

Happy Birthday, Pete!
