To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Thing is, if I just up and quit, I'll put one of my co-workers in the same position I'm in now, and I don't want to screw them over like that. But yes, resume is going to be worked on on Monday. At least, once I leave here this morning, I won't have to be back here until Wednesday night (barring maybe showing up at the local office Monday afternoon for the scheduling meeting.) I'll have plenty of time to get sleep, update my resume and do some job hunting on Monday and Tuesday (I've already got plans on Saturday and Sunday, otherwise they would also be used for that as well.)

My comment was offered to show the state does not keep itself out of things where the only damange done is mental anguish.

And my point is that, as far as I know, it does. A crime must occur. You can then sue for additional damages for mental suffering. You can't sue for mental damages if whatever you're upset by was completely legal.

If I understand, you're saying 1) it's illegal to have sex with corpses, and as a result 2) people can sue for mental anguish if it happens. Which is true as far as it goes, but you then seem to argue that 3) since people can sue for mental anguish if it happens, it should be illegal. That's circular.

And my former-boss' transfer out of the dept is now official. Why the CIO waited to send out the announcement until almost 9:30 on a Friday night, I have no idea.

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

If you could have someone bring you one item of food or drink right now, what would it be?

Mine would be high class root beer.

Always Anti-fascist!

Hal Sparks is very cute. Unrelated to the food or drink discussion where I would say "Banana split."

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

That's circular.

Green chile chicken enchiladas made by Mrs. Apodaca. Cause I've never tasted better.

Hmm, I need to tell her that. Though then she'd think me prospective daughter-in-law material, which I'm not.

Our wings are not tired.

Pistachio nuts. Delivered by Hal Sparks would be acceptable.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I think I want a deep dish spinich pizza.

ETA: or chicken katzu.

Or fried bananas.

Or, really, anything. I'm kind of hungry and not picky.

Heh. That, too.

I paid someone to bring me a pizza. Half of which I inhaled. I might die, but it was worth it. There's probably something else I'd have rather had back before I had the pizza. Right now I can't imagine ever wanting to eat again.
