Theodosia in Technology: I regret to say at this time I'm not a skilled enough knitter to make a Harmony remote.
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Miracleman making me laugh in Bitches:
Re: Cellphones. Aims and I have phones that will never break, ever, no matter how much we may want them to. They are ugly, squat, industrial looking cellphones that are probably pre-fall-of-the-Republic Russian military surplus designed to survive a direct nuclear strike, but contain no aesthetic value whatsoever lest they distract Russian troops with their shininess and make them long for Western culture.
We require no insurance. Comrade.

What is even happening?
In Literary, flea:
mr. flea mocked me roundly for loving Librarything. I pointed out he enjoyed computer programming. He pointed out that someone who enjoyed computer programming created Librarything. I pointed out that someone who enjoyed computer programming AND geeking out about books created Librarything.

Andi and I won the lottery yesterday.

Winnings take a while to accumulate at this rate.

Aimee: Aimee is hereby crowned Queen of Beginning Algebra! She hath made the integers and prime factors and mixed numbers and decimals her bitches and will henceforth banish them to the "learned it, don't need it til the exam" corner.
Hil R.: Yay Aimee!
(Though the math teacher in me wants to say, "But you learned it! Now you can have fun with it! Numbers do all sorts of neat things! Nobody puts prime factors in a corner!")

DJ in Boxed Set:
It's kind of a corallary of the rubber glove! AIFG! phenomenon (mah-nah-mah-nah sorry ).
Buffista A: You know one might surmise that it's just us northern buffistas who like to wear rubber gloves and pretend we're chickens.
Buffista B: No! I grew up in West Bumfuck Alabama and me and my cousins would do that all the time!
De-lurker: Delurking to say, I'm from Azerbijan and we have a cult of rubber glove wearers.
Buffista A: Huh.

In Bitches, Miracleman and Aimee, on protecting the home against intruders --
Miracleman: My shinai should be somewhere about, or my kali sticks, should you decide you need to whomp intruders. My sword is also under the bed, if you need that.
Aimee: rolls eyes
If I need to whomp an intruder, I damn well don't want to have to roll my agility for it.
We need a gun.
