I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

Okay, strangest thing you've researched for a story, fanfic or otherwise. Go!

It's a toss-up. Either the where the alt.gothic pick-up line "Nice boots, wanna fuck?" came from, or trying to find a black magic/demon-y equivalent to Spanish Fly for one of Plei's fics.

Oh my god. We took a field trip down into the sub-basement to see where they were putting us. We're going to be locked in a tiny windowless room in a place that smells manky and will get no cell service and the bathroom is really far away.

DO NOT WANT.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Plus, she looked bored - or maybe sort of out of it. Hard to know with her.

Also not too steady on her feet.

I'm just saying -- Chris Brown wasn't even lip synching, but he was dancing his fucking ass off. And Rhianna was actually singing -- singing over a track of herself singing, but I'm sure I heard her voice live as well.

Ah, tech support. So valued.

Maybe the universe really wants you to look for a new job.

Oh dear.

You know, I should probably take some NSAIDS to head off my oncoming sinus headache. Instead of sitting here like I can't do anything about it and play solitaire.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I can feel my sinuses starting to ache, too. I'll have to wait until I get home to pop a Claritin.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

DO NOT WANT.

Will they let you keep the red swingline stapler?

Remind me to dust off my resume when I get home and after I've napped, man.

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

Over the weekend I read a little about what's coming up in fashion this season. They used the term "clash" to describe the combination of navy and black. Do y'all see that as a clash? They might not be worn together much, but I think they look okay.

For what it's worth, in the BBC What Not to Wear book with the color charts, they say not to wear black with anything but brown or grey. They are all about "wearing color with color" and hate the prevalence of black. Yet, black does appear as a matching color on one of the color charts--dark blue, specifically, navy.
