How lovely that a COMM post involving number slutting is companioned in this tread by Theodosia. Secret message to Theodosia my fingers find typing Connie easier

Heh. You divined my symbolic choice in slumbernutting.

Sisko was a badass.
Plus, watching him call Terry Farrell "Old Man"? Unsettling and sexy.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
You know what I love about this place? 3 out of the 5 times I'm tempted to state what may be the obvious, someone already has.

billytea: (BTW, the Hartford office is by all accounts a nice place to work. It's in a forest, apparently. (There is actually an archaic word meaning 'office in a forest', namely batilbaby. I should point out that this sort of trivia is of almost no help in my job. I can't help feeling that's wrong.)

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Rio:
True story: My feet used to be a 5.5 before I started doing yoga. A year and a half later they were a 6.5 or 7. Which they've remained ever since. They found their True Inner Size.

From Natter, though I can't explain why it's funny to me, it just is. This is like the surreal cherry on the weirdest conversation of the week:
Shawn:
My feet are not only not charming, I hope they know they are the reason We Cannot Have Nice Shoes.
My hands, on the other hand, are freaking Cary Grant.
msbelle:
I think there are laws against this type of thing.

The ever-quotable Nutty (whose bitch I faithfully remain):
Oh! Spider toes! My brother has those, and they're very long. Secretly, I sometimes think he has switched my fingers with his toes and he can stretch a piano octave with his toes like Mike Teavee after taking Vitamin Wonka.
Of course, I don't want knuckles that hairy. Or to be stretched out like human taffy, either.

Jessee: OK, officially too many uses of AA, which I keep thinking means Alcoholics Anonymous, anyway. First someone meant affirmative action, right? And now you mean Ann Arbor? Were there any others I missed?
Nutty: Amy Acker? Administrative Assistant? Artful ankles?
Sarameg: Aristocratic Aardvarks. Amiable Alligators. And don't forget: Alien Antforms.
BHP: Ant's ankles. Which was, like "bee's knees", a compliment in the '20s.
Sarameg: Accepting Anemones? Able Angelenos? I could probably due this all day....
Sarameg, on a roll: Bodacious bazookas? Bewildered Borneans?
