Do the raisins in a helping of Raisin Bran count as a fruit? They should, shouldn't they?
Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

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

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
I'll scan and post to LJ, since I'm now so angry I'm worried about saying something I'll wish i could take back.

No, really, Birgit likes it when we objectify her!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
She was asking for it with her selling something with the word "mount" in it!

The only time I like (okay, not like but don't actively hate) rasins is in bran. I don't think of them as fruit so much as tiny wrinkled chewy bits of DOOM!

Nothing wrong with raisins especially when surrounded by oatmeal cookie.

I started my diet with last night's dinner, so I've done very well with the fruits/veggies mix today: breakfast--carrot muffin and pineapple cup, lunch--spinach salad with four cubes of cheese and shredded salmon (and a faux-brownie which was much moister than I remembered, so it wasn't too bad) and a breadstick. Tonight's dinner is cheese lasagna with veggies, and I'll probably supplement with one or two of the oranges I have.

Nothing wrong with raisins especially when surrounded by oatmeal cookie.There's everything wrong with them. Why ruin a perfectly good oatmeal cookie? Will no one think of the children?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I hope you will take the opportunity to meet Birgit at our next tradeshow.
She considers it a step up from working the auto shows. At least, at the tradeshows she is allowed to wear more than a bikini.
Birgit will be presenting several technical demonstrations at the upcoming Photonics West show this month so you will have the chance to meet her in person.
We do ask, however, that you refrain from yelling "Show us your tits!" during the demonstrations, as some of the equipment is very fragile, and Birgit startles easily.
I think you will be impressed with her ability to support and represent woman in engineering as well as other tasks she has undertaken at (redacted).

There is everything wrong with an oatmeal cookie. Raisins are just the worst of it.
