Allyson:
The thing that makes me most want to bust Heinlen in the teeth is the smarmy way he covers up the fact that all he wants to do is fuck and not pay taxes by pretending to be a great philosopher.
WhatEV, Bob. If you want to hump your in-laws, that's cool. Just don't try to tell me it's an important part of a great libertarian utopia that is of course the right way to go. But no, you're not serious, you just want me to think, but I can't really think Bob, when of course all I want to do is marry into your family and carry your seed, as is my role.
Silly me. *gigglelolomigod*
Allyson (upon reflecting):
Wow. I wonder if I've transferred a portion of my Dubya hate to Heinlen, because I found it so impossible to hate someone so much that I had to wring out the excess onto Heinlen.
In Bitches:
Cass:Watching victor and thessally read their poems. Fabulous. The coffee at the coffee place. Fabulous. The decision not to order decaf. Might have had me all awake for the drive home, but me still awake now so only marginally fabulous.
Still... Tonight's insomnia was worth it. I just tapped Ambien to come into the ring and it's gonna be quite the battle tonight in Cass' brain. Ammmmmbien versus cafffffffffiend. They've got costumes too.
In Movies:
ita: but then remembered I was insane, and shouldn't encourage myself.

in Bitches rejoices at the non-cloudy view:
YOU CAN SEE THE FUCKING MOUNTAINS!
And don't you know that mountains hate being caught doing stuff like that when the clouds move without warning. It's like, "Oh! Humans! Nothing to see here, look over there. Hey, what's that in the lake!" But granite can't do subtle.
Matt the Bruins Fan in Minearverse:
I think Amélie is the only movie that lived up to its "she'll change your life" promise, and even then the effect was limited to the decor of my bedroom.
the problem with asking the Buffistas for advice (in Natter):
Nonian:
Are there any easy ways to get gasoline smell off your hands?
NoiseDesign:
Belt sander.
Nonian:
Okay, I'll go fire it up. But once I'm done, what do I do with my bleeding fingertips?
Polter-Cow:
Tell everyone your new guitar is hell.
NoiseDesign:
Hydrogen peroxide.
Nonian:
You people are funny but not very helpful.

I just ate a chocolate-covered cricket.

According to the British parents' organization Bullywatch, which issued blue wristbands to students to publicize the campaign against school bullying, any kid wearing the wristbands was immediately targeted for attack by bullies
DebetEsse
Well, yeah.
Cashmere
Color me not surprised.
ita
I'm disappointed. The bullies should co opt the blue wristbands as their gang colours.
That would be cool.
DavidS
You're exhibiting a little more simpatico with the bullies than I think is rightly proper. Also, they lack your imagination.
ita
For that, I quash my simpatico.
Louts. Louts with no flair, or sense of irony.
DavidS
So your prefer a more stylish lout? You like your goons with some panache?
ita
You didn't think I was in it for the brutality alone, surely?
DavidS
Oh, no. You clearly need a gang that looks and works sort of like your Krav security detail.
Cashmere
ita has nailed why I like hockey. Hitting guys. Boring. Hitting guys while skating. Speed and grace punctuated by violence.
ita
Except they have these great big knives they so rarely use. It makes me tense.
DavidS
I was just talking about the virtues of Kung Fu ice skating yesterday.
