I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

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

My toe is still there, but I haven't seen the doctor.

If you want to be grossed out, you can see what it looks like at [link] , but don't say I didn't warn you.

Ah, a stalker. Great.

I just want to get my damn comics and go home. I do not want to make awkward conversation with a complete stranger. If I see him there, maybe I'll just say, "Sorry, I don't date Republicans or people named Mike."

Shrift, how good are you at Halloween fake wound make-up? I'm thinking a facial scar and replying "got in a knife fight" to any questions about same could be a fun way to discourage his attentions.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

It's not gross; just purple. Tape it to the next toe and then get ready to hobble.

Well, I usually go straight from work, so pustulent sores and festering wounds would invite more questions from my coworkers than I'm prepared to answer.

I suppose I could crush his immortal soul underneath my steel-toes. I need the new Teen Titans, man.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

See, I like Shrift's method of dealing.

Shrift, explain to him that you have really strict standards for your menfolk, and that you just don't think that he would look that good in eyeliner and glitter.

Buffistas give the bestest advice in the world, they do!

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

You want to be careful with this. The alternative effect (at least in my life), is inciting a fetish-level lust for Amazon types.

Perhaps "Got in a knife fight with a creepy stalker. I won. You're next?" would be more effective, then?
