Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

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

cereal: My understanding of watch lists matches Brenda's. Nobody can check them, and you don't know until you're spanked. Cocksuckers.

I've only heard "sit bone" used in yoga classes.

Oh my god that bike is incredible

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

That bike needs to be in the next Batman movie.

I looked at someone funny for using the term "sit bone" and he defended himself by saying it was the real term. I grant, rolls off the tongue a hell of a lot easier than ischial tuberosity. But it's nowhere near as fun to type.

To be fair, I don't think I have ever heard the term "ischial tuberosity" at all.

Dog is my co-pilot.

On Saturday I'll be putting my first floor back together. We had to box up breakables and a gazillion CDs because we had most of the flooring on our first floor replaced today. [Link].

On Sunday I'll be matching up applicants with Labrador retrievers.

DH is on a road trip this weekend to see ballgames in Chicago and Milwaukee.

Robin, it depends on what you mean by a watch list. There are lists of SDNs (Specially Designated Nationals) that are both individuals and entities who have been declared as or being investigated for funding/working with terrorists: [link]

Bobbi, that floor is gorgeous!

Thanks, sarameg. We've been in this house for 21 years, and someday it'll be the way I want it! I just keep sitting on my living room couch staring at the floors. Of course I notice every speck of dirt, every piece of dog hair, and every drop of drool/water. I need to teach my dogs to dry their mouths after drinking. And they need to stop shedding now. Oh, and no more toenail growth.

ETA: I'll get over the OCD thing fairly soon. I do, after all, live with 4 dogs and one human male.

How prevalent is "sit bone" as a common term for ischial tuberosity?

I've heard it in Pilates a lot.
