Life is eternal, Love is immortal, and death is only an illusion.

Hey.. I am good catholic girl! Gutter free.

I was just told you could tell a lot about a man from his hands.. and since his brain had already been claimed........................

Though now that you mention it, I do get a " I fall to pieces" flash of his evil hands walking towards me and evil laughter in surround sound!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

any other knitters find it too hard to deal with yarn in the summer?

I think I might just need to switch to a cotton yarn project, but the idea of picking up my wool is unappealing at best.

I have a project I need to start, but can't even finish the one I've already started. Each year, I have one project that dies on the vine because summer hits.

And it's not even hot here!

If I only had a brain...

No, but I have to watch for sweat staining my embroidery projects.

Speaking of which, why in the name of all that's holy did I decide to start a project worked in three different shades of off-white on natural linen?!??!?!

It was pretty? But yeah, it sounds pretty crazy-making, with the whole sweat thing.

I almost never knit in the summer. The yarn gets all weird on the needles. Or I have to switch to exclusively metal needles.

Oddly, crocheting is not as crazy making.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I just watched "Safety Canary" with the commentary track and was reminded of two things: (1) Caroline Dhavernas and Katie Finneran LOVED working with Tim; and (2) Bryan Fuller completely zoned out in health class when they were explaining how human reproduction actually works.

Show of hands, who thinks Darla's pregnancy was more likely than the one Karen Tyler was going to have in the second season of Wonderfalls?

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

I had a pretty terrible stereotype thought about it, Matt. I shall tell you my terrible thought, which is, again, terrible.

My thought was that Fuller was stereotypically so ignorant of pussy, that pussy became the magical negro in that scenario.

Of course, I know not of Fuller, and am applying past bad experiences of Too Many Gay Men loudly discussing how absolutely disgusting pussy is, and comparing it to the sort of solid/sort of liquid muck at the bottom of a trash can. I just went straight to an ignorant, hateful explanation of his plan.

Having talked myself down from the terrible stereotyping place, I have no explanations, except that sometimes I'm a pretty big jerk who thinks the worst of people.

This may or may not be true, but the way you state what you think always makes me laugh.
