Am I basically a nice, helpful person? Is that a truthful statement? I just wrote that in an essay, and am wondering if people who know me will laugh until their eyes water.
I get stuck on the most fucked up things.
I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

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.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Calabro's still working? Good on him.
Allyson, I'd say you're nice and helpful. The words sound a bit trite, but I don't know the context. They are true, though.
If we're talking basically, I'd toss generous in instead of one of those adjectives.
Colin's on TV right now. But I'm not watching until more's been recorded. Watching ep 1 of Hustle now. I have no idea where in sequence the one I watched before was--they went after the crown jewels.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
IIRC, that's S2 Ep1, ita.

Context:
It’s in my nature to put the grocery cart back in the corral in the parking lot, finish a task for a coworker who is out sick, write letters of reference for people looking for jobs. Much to my own chagrin, I’m basically a nice, helpful person. Those qualities, of course, extend to my relationship with fandom.

Okay, cool. Thanks, Jess. I don't feel too discombobulated now. I was worried it was the end of the season this is the start of.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Everything is out of the kitchen except the toaster, the microwave, and coffemaker. Now I'm hungry.

Allyson, no, there won't be raucous laughter.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That sounds right, Allyson.
So last week I passed Thomas Calabro [link] on the street, and tonight he is on Cold Case.
I can't believe IMBD doesn't have a picture of him! Doesn't he have an agent?!?

ION, I had a delightful dinner, but now I REALLY REALLY want candy. But still not enough to leave the house again, I think.
