A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
While we're whining, I have tomorrow off and I still have to be at a meeting at 9 am. In what kind of world is that an ok thing?!
It is NOT an ok thing. I'll tell you what people kindly tell me when I make the same complaint: It doesn't count as a day off if you have to get up and go in at 9am. It happens at least once a month in my world, and sometimes three times. I'm looking forward to having to do that on Wednesday.
Yay for remissions and asymptom-alities.
Not-so-yay for d's knife-able landlord, and tiggy's sad-sack tire.
Nasty, rotten, ill-behaved Sunday.
Just out of curiosity, does anyone else find spaces randomly inserted into text they are typing when they are pretty sure they haven't hit the space bar, or is that just me?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
what's the past tense of text message? texted?
I would say it's "sent a text message," since neither "text" nor "message" is a verb, but I get weird about verbing nouns that everyone else verbed years ago.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Texted in a casual use. Sent a text message in a more formal setting. Not exactly sure where business casual falls in this spectrum though.

Kristin! My friend L. and I were just talking about you a couple of hours ago. She and her husband M. saw you and Drew over New Year's, and she said, "They look so happy together. Just so happy. And Drew looks much better than he used to. Handsomer, or less sloppy. I'm not sure. But so much better than before Kristin."
Awwwww! Thanks for telling me. You made my day.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Sent a message.
Gah! Earworm!
...Sent a message up the hill,
Asking for the buried treasure,
Tons of gold for which they'd kill.
Came an answer from the kingdom,
"With our brothers we will share
All the secrets of our mountain,
All the riches buried there."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Gah! Earworm!
Ah... the song that inspired an episode of The Six Million Dollar Man.

Oh my gods, One Tin Soldier. I haven't heard that song in ... wow, I don't even know.
The doctor has had my mom on a low dose of Prednisone for over a year, to keep her lupus vasculitis symptoms under control.
I don't think I've ever heard of lupus vasculitis! Learn something new, as they say. And yeah, a low dose is optimum.
