So, I wonder if the fact that I just overheard my boss having a screaming fight (with her husband, I hope) will affect (effect? I can never get that right!) our 2:30 meeting?
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

Phew. Mostly I just reframe the sentence.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Affect is a verb most of the time, and effect is a noun most of the time.

Ah -- excellent. Maybe I can actually keep that straight now? Because I know for sure to talk about a person's flat affect, or whatever.

Or to put it another way,
Dear Jesse:
It's quite possible this will affect your meeting. I do hope it has the effect you want, and effects a change in the meeting schedule.
Affectedly yrs,
me.

Ooooh, many good labour-vibes headed your way, Jess. I'll be thinking of you and E.
And congratulations to Lyra Jane! I missed that one as well; serve me right for skipping. Your daughter is a beauty.

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