Don't you just love this party? Everything's so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there.

Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?  

[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.

"Socially not-fucking-insane"?

Heh. I actually had a moment of thinking that I'd put "socially sane."

Reads as: Godless communists!

Really? Ok. Nebbermind.

I've heard "socially conscious."

Oooo...I like that.

LJ is working again. After all flouncing off isn't much use if you can't flounce back to see who missed you, right?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Skipping ahead to say: When I decided to play musicals all day while cleaning/moving and when I further decided I would start with the first one I came to... I didn't realize it was going to be The Wall and now my day is starting out all twisted and weird.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

vw, I like "socially conscious", but (without knowing the subject of the letter) I wonder if reframing the issue as as something other than red/blue would be more effective in keeping them from shutting you out?

(Unless the red/blue is the actual issue. In which case it's kind of weaselly to avoid it...)

I'm trying to describe that I'm in the interesting position of being theologically conservative while being socially liberal.

And the more I think about it, the more I think that socially conscious won't work, because it insinuates that people who are theologically conservative aren't socially conscious, which will also cause problems (no matter what *my* thoughts on that particular issue are).

Actually, that's not the point of the letter as a whole...it needs to be said to address the most recent sermon series.

vw, open-minded? tolerant?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I'd go with progressive.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I wonder if any word or phrase would do if what you're essentially saying is "Your sermons have been A, which bothers me because I'm B." Because regardless of what word you use, it sets them up as not-B.
