I have two job-search related phone calls to make that I monumentally don't want to.
On the other hand, I really want a job.
I've done all the small immediate things I can think of to put it off, and short of starting laundry...
Yeah. Lemme go call.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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

Yeah...you know the internets have given so many in-jokes it's like I don't know how to have ordinary conversation.
All your jokes are belong to us?

I'm sure Mrs. Planck is glad to hear it.
obscure literary joke
Not that obscure. I would have made it myself if you hadn't done it. I love Antryg.

Also, I've known of Tunguska since before I'd ever heard of Buffistas.
edit: or Scully for that matter.
I've really got to get X-Files DVDs.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yeah, I read about Tunguska as a kid.
I've really got to get X-Files DVDs.
Yeah, me too.

I got it, but didn't find it funny.
So why am I posting it? Dunno. Anyone find it funny?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Hec, I'm with Matt. Dude. Tunguska.
Clearly it's a large gap in my knowledge base. Fortunatetly, I now have Wikipedia to fill in the gaps. I just have to figure out where I'm gapping. Must browse for more unnatural natural phenomena which lend themselves to weird science and conspiracy theories.
Yes, I know about Krakatoa.
So who'll play you in the sitcom?
I have no idea. Give me a suggestion.

I think I first learned about Tunguska during the period in my teens when I became obsessed with Charles Fort.

You know, the last time we talked about Tunguska someone brought up Charles Fort.
