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

[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.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I just now realized it's cute overload and not cute overlord.

To-MAY-to, To-MAH-to.

Baby ducks are brave.

When you build duck boxes, you make them kind of tall above the water so that passing alligators and so forth can't get into them and eat the eggs or hatchlings. Similar principal for nesting in the tree, I guess. There's a short film (Flight of the Mergansers? Something like that) that documents one nests journey from egg to first flight, and ends with all the ducklings plummeting to the strains of Die Valkyrie. They landed in water, though.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I remember seeing that duck film. It was awesome.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I fixed the TV! I am genius!

(We were getting sound, but no picture. After a bunch of tinkering around, I figured out that the problem was that there was something wrong with the coaxial input on the TV. Switched the cable box - TV connection to S-video, and problem solved.) (The component input on the TV stopped working last year. It's my parents' setup. They're getting a new TV soon, but for now, just want to get this one working well enough to last them until then.) (Also, I was able to pull out about 10 superfluous cables, including three that were part of the wire tangle but weren't connected to anything on either end. No clue how those got there, but I plan to mock my dad about them.)

Well done, Hil! Getting rid of superfluous cables deserves some sort of medal.

I didn't actually see the duck film, just was told how awesome it was with very vivid descriptions.

oh dear ... I saw this and all I could think was "I thought they could fly!"

Perhaps this is the genesis of the turducken?

Compassionately intolerant

Also dailykittendotcom...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And there really is a cuteoverlord dot com.

There might have been, but neither www.cuteoverlord.com nor cuteoverlord.com give me any love today.
