Thanks for pointing out the authorship, Steph. It would have been sensible of me to do that, huh?
Penis panic. Which is in no way a gross link, or anything. I don't think. But I don't have a penis, and am quite calm about it.
Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

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

That link seems to lead to a locked post, or some other thing that's giving me just a Word Press error page, ita.

The code seems to be going up and down. Hmm. I clicked on it again and then refreshed and got through.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I said "largely concluded." Thanks for thinking for me, guys!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
My maternal grandfather had us all call him "Gaffer" because he didn't like the usual grandpa/granddad/pop options. He was indeed wordy.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
You asked her/him to use a book?! No wonder s/he was confused.
I didn't even tell her it was also on Westlaw, just because I'm mean like that.

My point of reference for my above insertions is actually from Tolkien scholarship. Tolkien's use of the term Gaffer for Sam's uncle (I think) was very specifically meant to conjure the image of a chatty/gossipy old fart, through the etymology of the word itself. Tolkien was never one to choose a word casually. I defer to the Professor.

The status is NOT quo.
"Gaffer" is actually an Elizabethan word meaning, loosely, "grandfatherly peasant."

I suddenly find myself thinking Elizabethan peasant grandfathers were probably quite the chatty bunch.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
So, something just popped up on my iPod.
The song title is in kanji, so I don't know what it actually says. The band is BUMP OF CHIKEN (typo included) and it's off their Greatest Hits cd.
None of this prepared me for song to sound *exactly* like Guns & Roses, Sweet Child 'O Mine...
It's my only BUMP OF CHICKEN. How will I ever know the joy of BUMP OF CHICKEN now? And who can I blame for this?
