No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

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

Guess what? Sunday is National Ice Cream Day!!!

Good thing I noticed early, so I can make plans....

Strega -- I didn't know you were doing the Farscape recaps, which makes me 150% more likely to go read them!

I had homemade, mostly organic and 100% cowfree cupcakes for breakfast, which bodes well for the rest of my day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sunday is National Ice Cream Day!!!

Yay!! I'll probably be celebrating a day early -- I hope that's OK.

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

Hooray! And since it's supposed to be roughly the temperature of the surface of the SUN that day, we'll need it.

So who here has used the trick of using a car door jamb to open a bottle?

My ex flatmate could open bottles with her teeth. Classy.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I can open a bottle with a key. Any key. Like, a door key, a car key -- whatever.

Sometimes I'd open a bottle by putting the bottom edge of the bottle cap on the edge of a hard surface (like a table) and then hitting the top of the bottle with the palm of my hand.

There's something cool about a technique like that, where you have to do it right or you'll hurt yourself. Or maybe that's just me.
