You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History  

[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.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

morning, all!

I have a very cute haircut and red toenails. However, I also seem to have serious ingrown toenail pain on the outside of my left big toe and I am afraid that I have acquired a bacterial infection from the pedicure place. It's sore. But it's the same level of sorenes, no increases in pain. I've been soaking it, slathering anti-bacterial ointment on it, and carefully trying to nudge the edge of the toenail away from the toe. (very carefully).

I am prone to ingrown toenails, and I warned the pedicure lady, but she seemed to take that as a challenge to use the clippers with abandon.

Argh! NOT RELAXING. It's annoying enough that I paid someone to give me an ingrown toenail, but the thing that worries me the most is that I could have picked up a bacterial infection or something horrible.

DO NOT WANT.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

There's a word, 'feague', that referred to the practice of making a horse for sale look more lively and spirited by shoving ginger up its arse.

Aha! THAT must be the derivation of "figging"! (I will be kind and include the wikipedia page, but let me note -- just to prepare all y'all -- that it's a sex-related term: [link] .)

I always wondered why it was called figging when it didn't involve figs. And now I know the etymology.

And now you have all witnessed the extent to which my MASSIVE wordnerd geekery can take over even kinky sexual practices.

It is, truly, a WONDER that I ever get laid. t edit (And when I do, I'll just note that figging is not not NOT involved. Gack.)

Don't worry Steph, I blame my toes.

I'm going to have to rethink figgy pudding now.

Pervs. Those have actual figs.

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

Eeeenteresting, Steph. I'm definitely going to have to save that one up for a krav conversation (totally typed "combination" there). I know my nemesis doesn't know what it is.

Our wings are not tired.

The parents always told me that I needed to learn something new every day. Thanks, Teppy!

Totally. I mean, NO ONE would stick a FIG up their ass. That's just fucked-up.
