This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, I didn't know there was luck attached. That makes so much more sense.

Hah! I'm trying to imagine what y'all must've thought the tradition was. "Dammit! Somebody got a plastic baby in their piece! I guess that means Hopkins has the cake tomorrow."
Filing that next to, "There's a canoe with beer!" "IT'S A PIROUGE!" and "Who Dat!?!" "The Saints!" "IT'S A CHEER!" in people who didn't grow up like I did are funny.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Thanks, -t. That explains better why he went to hospital to get the world's-fastest-MRI-with-reading.
For the relationship bitter among us. I snicker because I have a couple designs that fit the theme.

Art Crawl!!!
My thought was that Hopper had been convinced that the looping was a manifestation of some sort of seizure but then the biting comment made him rethink.

Pretty much, with a subtext of "Everyone must eat cake until on the verge of explosion." I don't know how I missed out on king cake thing growing up, it just wasn't really done in my crowd for whatever reason. But half of the small workplace and probably more than that in the previous larger office were native New Orleanians.
Now that I think about it, they probably all conspired to increase the volume of cake being brought. Sweet plan, if so.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oooh, cool things, ita. Bitter and beautiful, like many Buffistas.
This design is gorgeous, and this one led me to this woman's store, where I think I want one of everything, specially the kiddie stuff.

"Evil Underwear" is a great category.

Would it be wrong to move puppet Angel to the front of my desk to scare people (and especially the children) away?

Not even a little bit.
