I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Swouncing

Minearverse:

KristinT: What JZ said. Again. I really need that t-shirt.
JZ: I hardly warrant it, but...okay (blushing). And at the next F2F you can wear that, and I'll wear my "What scrappy said" t-shirt, and possibly Robin will wear a "What Betsy said" t-shirt, and it can go all the way round to whoever has the spiciest brains of all, and that person will wear a t-shirt that says either "HELLS YEAH WHAT I SAY" or "Seriously, y'all, @@."

Also:

Allyson: Maybe I can make a popup book with what is supposed to happen next, Tim
Strega: And I could recap the pop-up book!
"Is it just me, or do the characters seem two-dimensional? So I pull the tab, and the car tumbles down a cliff. Which would have been cool if it hadn't been totally obvious that would happen. I mean, hello, I can see the little slot cut in the paper! Way to telegraph things, Allyson."

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Bitches:

sj: I really should get a sword.

connie neil: Every well equipped home should have one. They won't go off accidentally, they don't need loaded, you're not going to hit the person across the street by accident--unless you're very strong as well as clumsy--and you can use it to open packages and prepare dinner in a pinch.

After Hil shared the fabulous news that she's officially a doctoral candidate:

Ginger: Yay, Hil! I have the impression you're also thinking "OMGWTFPHD."

What is even happening?

In Natter...

Matt the Bruins fan: OK y'all, I need to get a keeper. Or a partner-in-crime named Ethel and a Cuban musician husband. This morning I thought I'd be industrious and take out all my trash before running errands. I tried to flip up the dumpster lid with one hand while flinging the garbage in with the other. Which is why I was unable to stop the twist-tie from tangling with the keychain I was holding in the same hand and yanking it into the dumpster as well. Where it promptly burrowed under the many trash bags and hid.

Cut to me spending the next 20 minutes on tiptoes with a cane from my 1997 Halloween costume trying to hook the ring so I wouldn't have to actually climb into the dumpster and necessitate 15 or 20 extra showers. And then when I finally succeeded in snagging the slime dripping keys, waving the cane and doing a victory dance... before turning around to see several neighbors in the parking lot staring at me with open mouths.

The day did improve considerably after that, but then again it pretty much had nowhere to go but up.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have hybrid drive outrage, whenever I try to slow down it generates more power from the reciprocal rant drive.

The studio loves Tim. The network thinks it's going to, but loses its soul, as soon as it sleeps with him.
