Buffistas

Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers

Closed Threads

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

And jeez, how pathetic is it that I'm having the traditional mid-20's "I don't know what to DOOOO!" angst at 31?

I am right there with you, my sister in 31-yr-old "Well, fuck, what now?"

Of course then I'm all "I'll write a comic! I'll go to grad school! I'll design clothes! I'll knit couture dog sweaters! I'll have a girly pink sex shop! I'll fight crime! It'll be awesome!" Then I fall over with exhaustion at how busy ideal me is.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

"I'll write a comic! I'll go to grad school! I'll design clothes! I'll knit couture dog sweaters! I'll have a girly pink sex shop! I'll fight crime! It'll be awesome!"

I want you to do all of those things!

FWIW, I didn't publish my first book until mere weeks before I turned 40.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Then I fall over with exhaustion at how busy ideal me is.

YES. "I'll study Shakespeare! I'll own a karaoke bar! I'll become a massage therapist!" Oy.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Clearly, you and I should go into business together, juliana. For we have ideas that are both right and good.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

FWIW, I didn't publish my first book until mere weeks before I turned 40.

I turn 40 in ten weeks. Crap.

Yes. Also, we are very pretty and can hold our liquor.

Always Anti-fascist!

I know the feeling. Although the worst part of mine is that people think they *know* what I do already. "You're so lucky...not having to work or anything." I don't know whether to hit those people or feel like "Shit, your job is fucking sad. Sorry, bunk."Dude, Scola...smile at me the right way and I could give you mine. It's not perfect, but...

True!

ETA: My cousin has just started attending therapy. Technically it's supposed to only be for people who survived the storm, but the therapist decided K could take advantage of the program anyway. Point is, when she was talking about how great it is to talk about her shit and know that it's normal and stuff, I was thinking "But I don't need that! I have buffistas to validate my craxy!"

ETAA: Sad when the ETA is longer than the original post.
