You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

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

Thinking it's sad when languages die is part of my world view. Doesn't affect my morals in the least.

Do your utility closets have room numbers?

Yes. Shouldn't they?

Are you saying I need a sidekick who looks like a very unusual chandelier?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

How could it not include that, Jessica?

Very easily, actually -- I know pently of people for whom the question of God's existance is completely irrelevant.

But your original statement, and the modification of "belief in God" to mean "world view" seems not to imply that the one is contained within the other, but that they are one and the same.

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

Yes. Shouldn't they?

Well then, it would simplify things if you just scheduled that guy's meeting there....

Dana, do you have any really interesting hats you'd like to tell us about?

So you don't think it's morally wrong to not learn latin?

That chicken would come home to roost.

And he used a smiley face to tell me I'd be leading the meeting in his stead! The horror.

Today's lunch sucked--TJ burrito came out of the microwave like rubber. Fries were cold by the time they got to my desk, and the lemon square's overdone on one edge. I could murder a nap, but I don't get home (for any length of time if at all) until after ten tonight.

Pout, pout, whimper, whimper.

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

My high school Latin teacher was let go for being morally wrong.

eta: poor ita.

No. I think it's ethically wrong not to.
