I'm posting from my phone again, so I have to wait for later to look at the commics, or to try my own hand at it, but it looks like fun.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Last one (for now).

I'm picturing so many things about our Teppy that are strange and confusing and intriguing . . .

edit: And useful for fic! Thanks, Teppy!

Hey, it's been verified....by Science!

Also, the idea of shrift in a Christian Domestic Discipline relationship is amusing, just to think of the surprised look on his face when he discovers that the part of "the Man" will not be played by him. Also also? That might be kind of hot.

GNYAHRG. I'm dealing with someone who can't even make clear which piece of software he's using. It's making my mind bendy in bad ways.

And it's only 12:30?!!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Unfortunately, I've met many women around here who would find it just and meet for their husband to physically punish them "if he had a good reason."

I'm thinking of my parents' relationship, and the only possible good reason that comes to mind is "He's tired of living."

There's a whole endorphin thing that happens with a good spanking, or flogging

Oh, see, there's spanking, and then there's spanking. For me, domestic discipline specifically involves so much patriarchal bullshit that I am almost paralyzed by the overwhelming desire to choke a bitch.

Consensual? Sure! Corrective? GRAR.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Every time you post about your mom, Matt, I love her a little bit more.

Ann, that's a ferret.

What shrift and Steph said.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Today is the first day in which the total world population of city-dwellers exceeds the total world population of rural-folk.

There’s no big countdown billboard or sign in Times Square to denote it, but Wednesday, May 23, 2007, represents a major demographic shift, according to scientists from North Carolina State University and the University of Georgia: For the first time in human history, the earth’s population will be more urban than rural.

Working with United Nations estimates that predict the world will be 51.3 percent urban by 2010, the researchers projected the May 23, 2007, transition day based on the average daily rural and urban population increases from 2005 to 2010. On that day, a predicted global urban population of 3,303,992,253 will exceed that of 3,303,866,404 rural people.
