That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

it should stay, just sayin.

I agree.

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

I kind of like Yes We Puppiecam. It's also a nice callback to our long-ago obsession with the baby pandacam, which also got a Natter named after itself.

Or there's always, Natter 62: Don't Bite Your Friends!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, I love the puppycam one.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Or possibly "Natter 62: Big Giant Hand."

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Okay, okay, it stays. It's not like we don't repeat ourselves normally.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I think it should be changed to:

Natter 62: It's not like we don't repeat ourselves normally.

Because how perfectly true is that?

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

Scrappy, I agree.

ETA: Also (and speaking as the person responsible for the name of the last Natter), the naming consensus seems even more bullshit of late.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

We're doing it too late is the problem, I think - by the time we start throwing out ideas the thread is dead and the stompy has to just grab something.

People! Let's get it together.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, but brenda, remember when we've started too early and had issues there, too.

Were there really no retirement-age oriented suggestions?

All is well that ends in pizza.
