Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

According to Wikipedia, it's "the pain a sick person feels because he wishes to return to his native land, and fears never to see it again" and a form of melancholy. Wacky Romantics.

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

Wacky Romantics.

Unhealthy, if you ask me. Not nostalgia itself, but the pain that's welcomed. My nostalgia doesn't actually hurt. It pings. Not pains.

What is even happening?

I say "dominate your face" to reward persistence and not follow the fads! Although I like the TT one, too.

Don't stop believin', bon bon.

Now tagless for your comfort.

The Dominate Your Face thing cracks me up.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Well it's gonna be time for a new Natter, um, eventually.

hip deep in pie

I swear, one minute there was a posting box and the next there was none and post 10000. Freaky.

"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

Do the threads close automatically at 10,000 now without Stompy intervention? I'd have thought if a live person were closing the thread they'd have created the new one to link to first.

Which made me think of:
