In Natter, tangentially about 8-minute dating:
Hec:You want to date the guy whose ass you can kick? I thought you'd want a guy that could give you a challenge.
Shawn:Dude, then she'd be dating crazy Ivan. That's no good.
I'd want a challenge too, but he don't have to be able to recite the bill of rights.
BHP, from Buffy:
"And I alone have lived to tell the tale."
t head falls off
"Oh, dear. Let me rephrase. I alone am HERE in some form, living or otherwise, to tell the tale."
RL, you do know what I'm about to suggest, right?
Please white font that, even context-free it seems kinda spoily.
Danke!
Really? I thought it only might be spoilery if you knew it was supposed to be spoilery. But I'll go back & change.
OK, not spoilery at all. From Bitches:
Jess: Quick, someone entertain me before I read any more of the Worldwide Communications Joe Millionaire thread.
billytea:
<does tap dance>
<remembers is now in a foreign country>
<does faucet dance>
It's entirely possible that I am being overprotective. But thanks.
PS, love the blank COMM post. Sheer genius.
cereal again.
I'm catching up, see.
Calli:
I can't see the fun in agreeing with ones self, in public or otherwise. Being the person that I am, I rarely do so even in my own head. If I registered as "Illac" or something I'd probably end up fighting with myself.
Calli: Shnictdoodle's latest work was brilliant!
Illac: Well, yeah, except for her inability to maintain consistant characterization.
Calli: It's called "character growth," nitwit.
Illac: "Character growth" or "New characters with old names"? You be the judge. Oh wait, you were. And you were wrong.
The inside of my head is like this more often than is probably healthy.
And one more:
Deena, summing up the Bitches. Can this be the next thread slug?
I love this! I can talk about hair, cool velvet dusters, tiaras, sexy teenage boys, porn, the Bible, metaphors, pain, farming and dad issues and cover them all with glitter.
Unrelatedly, FayJay:
Re: Amazon's recommendations. My own particular favourite is where they say "Customers who wear clothes like our clean underwear". One presumes that the naked customers aren't so fond of the clean underwear. And indeed that the clothing-wearers aren't so fond of Amazon's dirty underwear.
