I wish they wouldn't put the word onscreen until they finish spelling.
You don't want to be spoiled for the ending?
Saffron: I'll die. Mal: Well, as a courtesy, you might start getting busy on that, 'cause all this chatter ain't doin' me any kindness.
'Trash'
Natter 45: Smooth as Billy Dee Williams.

What is even happening?
We have to fight the Dominionists, imo.It's just that every Christian isn't a Dominionist. And every Christian Conservative isn't a Dominionist, and for that matter, every Christian Conservative Whackaloon isn't a Dominionist.
Topic!Cindy, my dear, you have now reinforced my desire to never, ever, ever, get a LJ. Or have children, especially sons. (I am assuming the "he" is one of the boychilds, as the MO doesn't sound like the Princess.)

The princess enjoyed staying up late, watching cartoons, while the rest of us were in frantic research mode.

Oh, Cindy, I can only imagine what was going through your mind. I know I scared the beejesus out of my folks when I was around 3-4 by swallowing something I found in one of my mother's unused purses. I thought it was an M'n'M, but it tasted too nasty and when I told my mother? Oy. Very fast visit to the doctor's office. Thank heavens my kids never did that to me.
As for teachers expressing their opinions, I'm all for it as long as they make clear it is an opinion and not a fact. There are times, though, when an opinion is well worth being fired for. I saw a judge here in Wisconsin get recalled for expressing opinions from the bench that were so sexist he was lucky he wasn't lynched in situ by the gallery. When he let a couple of 15-year-old rapists off because the young lady was wearing "provocative clothing" and expressed the belief that any woman who didn't wear sleeves down to the wrist and skirts down to the ankles deserved what she got he was nearly instantly recalled. It was great, they elected a female judge!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I can't help giggling at the post-elimination interview with the spellers -- "What was going through your mind as you tried to spell that last word?"
"Well, Larry, I was actually thinking 'Son of a BITCH!'"
t edit Danm, these words are really fucking hard!

I know!
But I'm happy that there were words I could get like paillon or towhee.
