Nothing cools you off like killin'!
Spike: Or maybe Captain Forehead was feeling a little less special. Didn't like me crashing his exclusive club, another vampire with a soul in the world. Angel: You're not in the world, Casper.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Lord knows I've felt like shooting people the past couple of days...

speaking of which...
Dear diva scientists-
I've got at least 40 lbs, 3 inches and solid pair of 3.5 inch heels on you. You are a clot walking four abreast in a heavily trafficked hallway and you think I'm going to step off and wait for you to pass? Think again, assholes.

Punishingly Intricate
There was a scary home invasion/street robbery/car jacking spree here recently by one armed guy (who has been caught). He was making people go to their ATMs and give him cash and he was vacillating between being kind of polite (for a robber) and being pretty aggressive and angry. The weirdest thing about it was that he was performing these crimes during the middle of heavy rainstorms. That just isn't done!

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'm having sarameg's day, again.

For a minute I was thinking that Allyson and sarameg should collaborate on a "Devil wears Prada" style book about working with scientists, but then I remembered that scientists are really, really boring.

It's just summer! It makes people crazy. Also? your tagline might have something to do with it!
Sorry, Allyson. If it is any consolation, I think I confused the hell out of the wee man who had the misfortune to be in my path. I just stopped dead in front of him and stared until he stepped back and to the side so I could keep going.

You'd be surprised. The wildest parties I ever attended (and I include nights clubbing in drug free-for-all central european countries) happened to be at observing facilities. When I was 17. Aaiiiieeeee.

Hush you. I have a terrible crush on a very non-boring scientist.
And they're mostly all batshit crazy, so there's many stories to tell. My next book is all about work, so they'll star in at least a few stories.
