Woe to the fucking wicked.

The learned helplessness is bad, but it's the melodramatic "I don't know what to doooooo!!!1!" breast-beating that really chaps my ass. Listen, dude, all you have to do is click a link. I'm not asking you to file taxes in three states or properly use "Tazdingo!" in a sentence. It is a link. You click on it. No, you can't click on it "wrong". Good god, man, did you have some kind of traumatic Goatse.cx experience and swear you'd never click on a link again so long as you live?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hec in Lit, unspoilery for William Gibson's Spook Country, but whitefonted for caution:

Which makes his book feel So Last Year.

Admittedly, it is set in 2006.

She's whiny and crying and insolent. I'm seething with barely restrained impatience and annoyance. We fight crime!

Pitch it to a TV network! Oh, wait, we already had Moonlighting.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

brenda in Bitches commenting on a 33rd birthday:

Jesus birthday? Because of your age? And the not crucified yet?

Basically an "IN YOUR FACE, Son of God!" kind of holiday, I guess. I can get behind that.

Refusing to cast aspersions or provide context

It is a euphemism for anal sex, and is also a fun thing to do while drinking.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

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

When euphemisms get out of hand in a thread, it sometimes helps to clarify:

tommyrot: Here are some pictures of a sled for children. [link] Note that this is not a sex toy.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Sean K.: I also kept thinking that people who cannot pronounce the word "ask" correctly should not be setting public policy about language usage.
