Natter 53: We could just avoid making tortured puns  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Also, I kind of like the word frottage, except for the part where I have had people doing frottage on me in the subway and that's one of the nastiest things ever. That goes on in the subway

I'm usually completely oblivious. Some guy was rubbing against me on a train, and I didn't notice until the woman next to me called him out, and I was like "stop what?" and she explained that he was rubbing himself on me, but somewhere innocuous like my arm or my side. I was reading a magazine, listening to my iPod, in my own world.

It's too early for me to talk about Clive Owen. Haven't had me tea yet.

I'm only a third of the way through my coffee cup, but in order for me to talk about Clive Owen, all I really need are a string of consonants with a vowel at the end. "Nnnnrrggggah."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, sorry, I wasn't paying enough attention -- I'd bet either a Ross or a Marshall's would have them.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

That's why I asked about Ross. It's really random, though. I'd never looked at the men's section, and I swear the women's section is radically different in every store.

I can't make out their retail model--them or Marshall's.

It's left-over department store stock, which is why it differs from store to store. Same with TJ Maxx, Loehmanns, Filene's, etc.

And yet, I still say EW EW EW EW EW.

At least you can daydream, right? I wouldn't want anyone to miss out on the hotness, even if it is pre-tea.

Hil, much health~ma to your mom. Here's hoping her hospital stay is a short one.

Happy Birthday Lyra Jane!

If all else fails on the wifebeater front, maybe there's a Sears nearby?

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Birthday, Lyra Jane!

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

Same with TJ Maxx, Loehmanns, Filene's, etc.

I think I knew that about Filene's but not the rest. Are they of specific department stores? I mean, I guess Nordstrom Rack's provenance is pretty self-explanatory, and isn't Filene's something easy like that too?

maybe there's a Sears nearby?

There'll be one. Just trying to avoid the "No you're fucking kidding" feeling I got when I tried to buy some at Macy's. The minute I noted that Men's was on the third floor I just went home. Some of the little things feel like ridiculously much work.

At least you can daydream, right? I wouldn't want anyone to miss out on the hotness, even if it is pre-tea.

I've had tea and freshly squeezed orange juice. I am so primed right now. One frozen grape and I'll go off the bliss edge right into ripe Clive-appreciation territory.
