My worlds are colliding in Bitches:
AmyLiz:
Also, it's not easy to write flap copy for a book on female sexual submission at nine o'clock in the morning. That is all.
Teppy:
I could do it.
AmyLiz:
Even with Sesame Street on? I kept wanting to write: B is for Bondage, and F is for Fetish... And the number of the day is three! One, two, three submissives, ah ah ah...
Yours probably would have been better than mine, too.
Teppy:
Absolutely! "This episode was brought to you by the letters S and M...."
Erin in Bitches, because descriptions of heaven deserve preservation:
I have strong coffee, computer hook-up (finally), two highly amusing cats, cigarettes, and live less than a block away from 5 restaurants, a coffee shop and a movie theatre.
Today, I am rich.
Cass in Natter, on how some of our families know us so well ... :
Mom flew back from Chicago today and saw a woman holding a blanket, two pillows and wearing a tiara. She'd like to know which Buffista it was.
Emily:
I'm getting a crush on Alan Turing. Help!
D. Griswold:
Alan Turing is hot. Also, however, gay. And dead.
Cass:
Like any of that can stand in the way of Teh Crush...
And, continuing the same theme:
D. Griswold
Also, FCM: Occam, Schrödinger, Magic 8-Ball
Raq:
Well, I wouldn't F or M Schrödinger, as you'd never know if he was alive or dead in there. So C Schrödinger. The M8B always tells me what I want to hear, so M. And then F Occam is the simplest answer.
Could it be any mathier? In Bitches:
Emily:
anything raised to the 0 power is 1.
Tommyrot:
Even 0? How about a cat?
(Actually, 0^0 =1, right? God, my memory sucks.)
Emily:
0 is like the submerged iceberg of the natural numbers. Most of the time you never even notice it, but then suddenly you trip over it, and it's all kinds of trouble.
But 0*0 = 0. That one we do know. It's 0/0 where we say, "No no no don't go there, that's the bad place!"
tommyrot:
There's something cool about how mathematicians can't even agree if 0^0 is undefined.
I mean, either it's defined or it's undefined. Except it's both.
Or neither.
Fred Pete:
So it's Schrodinger's exponential?
tommyrot:
Yes.
See, I knew that cat^0 was relevant!
(COMMed in part for the crosspost, but each of the replies alone would have been funny, by itself)
Daniel C. Jensen:
Story: [link]
By injecting human embryonic stem cells into the brains of fetal mice inside the womb, scientists in California have created living mice with working human brain cells inside their skulls.
Are you pondering what I'm pondering?
WindSparrow:
I think so, Daniel, but where are we going to find flying monkeys at this time of night?
amych:
But where can we find a bald eagle in a diaper at this time of night, Brain?
Fred Pete:
I think so, Brain. But how are we going to get the tutu on the elephant?
In Bitches, letters to the asshat bosses of the DHs of Cindy, JZ, and beth:
Topic!Cindy:
Dear Various and Sundry Bosshats,
What the bleeding hell is wrong with you bloody bosses? Why do you bitches torture our bitches...er...husbands. They're ours. They came to us. Or something. Anyhow, and to sum? Lay off. What goes around comes around. Like butter scraped over too much bread. There's not enough time; there's not enough time. It's a long road that knows no turning. It's a long way to Tipperary. Don't let the sun go down on me. Walk through the fire and let it burn. It's Istanbul not Constantinople, and little lambs eat ivy.
We mean it.
JZ, beth, and Cindy.
JZ:
Or the short form:
Dear Various and Sundry Bosshats:
Let us 'splain... No, there is too much. Let us sum up.
We will cut you.
Kisses,
JZ, beth and Cindy
