Natter 47: My Brilliance Is Wasted On You People
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Happy Birthday, Hil!
Belated Happy Birthday, Jessica!
And even though the conversation has moved on, I keep old bills far too long. I could use old utility bills to figure out energy consumption, but I don't.
If you're interested in signing a petition that says "Ann Coulter does not speak for me," you can find one here: [link]
Did I miss something? Is there any reason anyone would think she does?

I just looked at that link briefly, but I assumed it was a reaction to her "women aren't that smart" quote. (I forget the exact quote.)
But still, I am of the opinion that it's best to ignore her, as she seems to thrive on media attention, good or bad.
Happy Birthday Hil!
ETA: That typo was just sad.
Reply to it, silly.
But I'm a-skeered! And don't know what to say. And did I mention scared? Why is this so hard? I'm 36, not 16.
Mark your calandars!
Cephalopodmas falls on December 22nd by the human calendar! Get your special squamous someone something fetid!
Also, Cephalopodmas carols:
On the first day of Cephalopodmas,
Cthulhu gave to me
Histioteuthis heteropsis.
Also, there's a war on Cephalopodmas
I have to say, though, that the continuing neglect of this important holiday by the media is another sign of the War on Cephalopodmas. Don't believe me? Walk into your local Wal-Mart, and I promise you that the greeter won't say "Merry Cephalopodmas!" to you. You won't see any civic displays draped with tentacles. The school pageants won't be full of songs about squid. The smell of kelp won't be in the air, nor will you be hearing the mournful, melodious tones of the foghorn. Outrageous, isn't it?
I want everyone this year to give their best Bill O'Reilly glare to anyone you meet who doesn't affirm your personal beliefs with a verbal recognition of the validity of Cephalopodmas. Temper tantrums are good, too. Of course, it should go without saying that you shouldn't have to explain why you're walking around always looking so pissed-off; truth be told, when you have to explain that you're upset because people aren't reciting some ritualized formal greeting at you, you sound a bit like a pinhead. So don't.

The argument the group makes in the email I got is that she's not just a fringe nutjob, she's also a bestselling author.
And did I mention scared?
Courage, my girl! Remember, it's just an email.
Did he ask questions you could answer? Is he local? Couls you ask him if he's been X place or Y museum, or something you love that could start a conversation?
Also, I don't know who I am to give advice. I married a guy I met at 17. If I had to date now, I'd probably crawl into a cave.
Hmmm... I haven't replied to a online personals ad in a while. Usually I resort to my off-the-wall humor. So if the woman isn't charmed, at least she'll be confused....
