Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They get the machine, hang up and try again.

Aha. My hangups are when I answer, so not the same thing.

All you no-land-line people kinda scare me. I've never had my land line go out. I have lost power, cable, internet, and cell reception.

Now, there was no big reason for me to have to make phone calls during, say, the no-power moments. But I just liked knowing I could.

Okay, got to get ready. Have to go for a free massage. Life sometimes doesn't suck.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I'm so glad I gave up my land line. NO robocalls from any politician.

Oh hell yeah.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Just one more reason I wish I were living in San Francisco.

You should totally move here! We have a french school and everything. And movies. Two things vital to your career.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

I fucking love Every Rose Has Its Thorn, even though I'm pretty sure the official title has "It's," which hurts me.

I... just couldn't write it that way. I can't even check my iPod, because I'm pretty sure I changed it during a grammatical hissy fit.

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

In completely random work news, our biggest client has a database DSN called "Xtreme Sample Database." And one called "Xtreme Sample Database 9."

I'm afraid to know what's in there....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Now, there was no big reason for me to have to make phone calls during, say, the no-power moments. But I just liked knowing I could.

I can use my cell phone when the power's out. The only thing that even vaguely concerns me is another 9/11 situation, when all the cell phones were fucked up, but I figure either I'm at work with landlines or I can use my neighbor's phone.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, also

I... just couldn't write it that way. I can't even check my iPod, because I'm pretty sure I changed it during a grammatical hissy fit.

This and Steph's semicolon are why I love us.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

HOLD ON TO THAT FEE-LAY-EE-AY-N!!!!

Heaven's just a funky moose. Although, truthfully, I saw this line and was like, "Fee, lay, ee, ay, en? Filet -- and a bunch of vowels? What does that have to do with robo-calls from politicians??"

Context is for wimps.

grammatical hissy fit

This is exactly the sort of thing I would do. If I had Poison on my not-Pod. Which I do not.

Punishingly Intricate

Is that better or worse than having an amused fondness for early Motley Crue

I used to hate the Crue but now I love the Crue. I had to find the love in order to do this:
