Sometimes, like today, I really wonder how I managed to make it to 40 with all of my appendages still more or less intact and unbroken.
Also, I just hurt myself trying to walk from my car to my apartment.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Did you make it?
eventually.
Speaking of Survivor... Austin reminds me of Lindsey. Every week I want him to do something backstabby and then blame it on his evil hand.
Tonight's episode made me sad, though. It should have worked! If Terry goes before Shane I will... um, glare at the TV and shake my fist angrily! Yeah!
We love SUrvivor, for the reasons Cowgirl mentioned.
Nuh-uh! Not me! Although, I agree too.
Oops--Bon Bon. Hey,J, if you have to be mistaked for someone, at least it was someone cool.
I figured you were mistaking me for Jessica, which, equally cool. It's all good -- I just don't want to take credit for other people's thoughts!
Perkins: WATCH OUT!!!
Too late. Now I'm just kind of hoping I'm going to be able to walk tomorrow.
I've found that nice is also used when you can't think of anything (as opposed to anything else), and is sometimes used--or better said--wielded by guys with a chip on their shoulders about the nice v. bad dichotomy, and in that little defensiveness they're not that nice at all. Passive aggressive at best.
I'd have to agree. I've felt the 'nice' thing as a straitjacket before (basically, too 'nice' even to make an advance, for fear of being misunderstood), but that was my problem. Whether it was fair or not isn't really even an issue. I lacked skills. It's not up to anyone else to make up the shortcoming for me. (And as we all know, girls only want boyfriends with skills. Hacking skills, nunchuck skills...)
Incidentally, from the online dating experience, I always winced when I saw in a woman's profile something like 'no players' or 'no mind games'. It occurs over and over again, which doesn't speak highly of a lot of men out there I'm sure, but... is it just me that thinks that you put that in a profile and you've just told the dating community that if they're at all inclined that way, past history suggests your head can be successfully messed with?
In that you both know on what terms you're meeting. I mean, even if it doesn't work, you had "looking for love" (or whatever) implicit in however you met (blind date, speed dating, personals, etc).
Ooh, this is a large part of what led me to the online dating thing. One less thing to stress about.
Heh. I knew it was a mistake to list people, because one always leaves somebody out. But I am prepared to make a sworn affidavit that juliana can flirt like a motherfucker.
Next up on Jery Springer - Being a literalist bastard led me to deeply inappropriate impressions!
"No, he's a really nice guy, it's just that...he spends more time at the zoo watching penguins than he does with me.
Hey! Just because I saw March of the Penguins yesterday, and wore the penguin tie that Jilli sent me to my client meeting today, and I'm planning a trip to Phillip Island to see the penguins, and Wallybee calls me Penguin, and she wants me to buy a dinner suit with tails, and...
Um. Hi, my name is William, and I'm a penguinaholic.
