S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I don't get the link between this look and gauchos.

On MTV, and among my friends, the increasingly popular look over the last few months is to pair gauchos--usually jersey thin material--with a-shirts. Making it have no form, no structure, and look way dressed-down. Beyond casual into couldn't-bother-to-dress-myself. I think it looks sloppy.

Cool - a snake that can change color.

Hey, speaking of snakes! Someone set up a "snakes on the mountain" exhibit here in the library. I'm betting they're riffing off SOAP. It's amusing. And kind of terrifying.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I just can't be fond of a look that spawns off the wifebeater/a-shirt phenomenom that you can go out in your pajamas.

I don't get the link between this look and gauchos.

Me neither, and I love wearing my A-shirts. Comfy and forgiving and sassy.

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

My latest strappy sandals, bought for this dress. I think they works.

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

Tommyrot: Who said anything about buying? The MB needs a good home.

Well if you're offering to give it to me, I'd be happy to give it a good home and take care of it and call it George....

Unsurprisingly, I am as juliana in this regard.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Todd, those are adorable... hmm...

Wait, he did say leather, right? OK then, I'll pet it....

What is even happening?

Don't get me started on the bullshit about flip-flops. Fuck that, I don't want to wear socks in the summer.

I think, for me, the problem is the term. Flip flops are beach shoes. But there are sandals done in the thong style which are not flip flops, and in an office where hosiery isn't a required part of the dress, and/or if other women wear other sorts of open toed sandals, then the thong sandal ought to be acceptable, as well.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

The thing I don't like about flip-flops in the office, is the noise they make. It echoes down the hallway... FLIPFLOPFLIPFLOPFLIPFLOP.

Drives me nuts.
