Now tagless for your comfort.

I don't know if it's a spoiler but I was trying to be sensitive to everyone's potential lunch plans.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I feel like Smay lends itself to cool names anyway.

It's tricksy, though. There are lots of ethereal super-girly fairy princessy names that sound atrocious with Smay -- pretty much anything that ended in an "ea" or "ella" is Right Out, and there were a handful of boy names that sounded great on their own but ended in an s that smushed up into the S of Smay, and I already have a tendency toward a faint lisp if I'm not thinking hard about my s's and z's, so names like Tobias were also Right Out.

Doc Holliday Smay has a real ring to it, though.

Cash, heh. Our sono tech didn't show us any foodstuffs, but she did show the Halloweenie's brain (so cool!) and announce it with a deep and solemn "Here are her braaaaaaiiiiiiins." The snark is good.

Also, now I'm just desperately curious: What analogy did your OB come up with for Owen?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Huh. I don't think that. Arabella Smay is perfectly lovely. Edit: Of course, not as perfectly awesome as Matilda Smay, don't get me wrong!

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

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, VW!!!

Matilda Smay - LOVE.

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

This church gave me free candy on Wall Street today, and I just now looked at it. First of all, what the heck is "Air Heads" supposed to be? And furthermore, how safe am I supposed to feel about mysterious candy from a stranger that is "White Mystery" flavored?

"White Mystery"!?!

ETA: ingredients list: Sugar, corn syrup [sugar], malto dextrin [sugar], dextrose [sugar], partially hydrogenated soybean oil, modified food starch [sugar]

Totally sounds like a drug street name.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Based on the ingredient list, it looks like there's no nutritional value whatsoever. Except sugar-based energy.

Man, good thing I'm loyal to my Quaker granola bar church people. That sounds sketch-o-rama!

Oooh, bon bon, Air Heads are Teh Yum. If you're into candy, I guess. It's sort of like taffy, only... more processed, I guess. I've got nothing on the "White Mystery" part, it does sound like a drug nickname.

It feels like a less chewy starburst, with a flavor they developed but couldn't assign a fruit to.
