Hey, we should have a NYC-being-nuked watch-n-post. All of us non-New Yorkers will periodically post, "You guys dead yet?"
Wash: I didn't think you were one for rituals and such. Mal: I'm not, but it'll keep the others busy for a while. No reason to concern them with what's to be done.
'Bushwhacked'
Natter 45: Smooth as Billy Dee Williams.
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.

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

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

I assumed this was already a given.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I thought one of our vendors, who I've never met, had a probably Arabic name. No, as I found out today, Kalel is named after Superman.
I guess we can rely on him for the coming Big Applepocalypse.

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

I will call periodically, as I plan on being out in my neighborhood with crazy drunk Italians, watching Italy beat Germany (hopefully).

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

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
The sports person on the radio this morning, reporting from the World Cup matches, said that today he saw the first headline he'd been able to read since getting to Germany - "Buenas Noches Argentina"

Oh my [link]
Apparantly, in the shady world of online dating, nothing is more hardcore than JDate, and we’ve got the proof.
Check out these incredible voicemail messages, from the “king of stalkers”, some dude named Darren Sherman, demanding that his date pay up on a bill from a dinner date after things fizzled. We were actually a bit nervous to post these because the Shermanator might try to send us a “summons” or maybe “contact our employeer.” Ha ha, what a douchebag.
The emails, threats of summons, calls to her employer, etc. go on for a while....

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Tomorrow we head up to Lawn Guyland for a family wedding. Yeah, I know, that sounds familiar. This time it's G's second cousin getting married. (The wedding we went to a few weeks back was my second cousin, who met his now-wife on JDate, FWIW)

Always Anti-fascist!
Oh, my God. And I thought the Dale Gribble types who got my match profile were scary.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've just dived headlong into a new process featuring a new team in our department. No one seems to know how it works. I'm trying to get approvals up my line of management, and everyone keeps pushing back saying "new team! new team!" Yeah, I know. The new team is waiting on you guys. And they'll only wait until 4.
And my line of management is the one that instituted this mandatory approval change.
Someone suggested I apply for a job at JDate, but I never bothered. They do, however, have one of the funniest billboards I've ever seen: "Why is this date different from every other date?"
