Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

You know what's gay?

Tango and Cash.

Possibly not as gay as Point Break, though. Especially Point Break with the sound off. That's as gay as Gunn and Wes in S2 Angel.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

But is it gayer than early Smallville?

The status is NOT quo.

So we're killing my minutes with teh gay? Fitting.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Dude, Tango and Cash is WAY gayer than Point Break.

WAY.

I mean, I rewatched it recently, and every single time I see it, it's less straight.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

So far today I've managed to sleep way too late, work out, and e-file my taxes. I suppose I should shower and forage for dinner now. I need to go to Target to get knives (The Boy, when slicing tomatoes for a salad, shamed me the other night by asking, "Does your BROTHER know about the poor quality of your knives?!?" So I asked the bro for a recommendation of a really good knife for a non-cook, and he told me that Target has a really decent Henckels santoku knife. I dutifully wrote it down, because I don't really know what all that means, but I know that my bro knows his knives), but I don't want to go back out into the 20-degree windy weather.

Hmm. Shower first.

Showers good.

Today, I got my hair trimmed and finished an SPN story.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I have new tires. You know what their promo is? Free Beef. Seriously.

Oh and new wiper blades. Not as a promo, I just needed them.

I'm pretty sure I want to rewatch both Tango and Cash and Top Gun now.

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

Santoku is a Japanese style of knife blade -- extra thin, which makes them very sharp and flexible. Traditional santokus have flat blades (closer to the shape of a cleaver), but since they became popular over here a few years back, European companies started making them with curved, chef's-knife-style blades so you get the santoku thin/sharpness and the chef's knife curved blade for easy chopability. (Though I don't know whether that's the case with the Henckels ones or not, since I use an old-fashioned Wustof chef's knife.)

[eta: And anecdotally, Henckels as a brand tends to be preferred by large-handed chefs]

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I have a Henckels santoku. I couldn't identify the difference from a normal chef's knife, but it (and the other Henckels I have) rocks.

A warning though, once you get good knives, you can never go back.
