Outlook's spell checker (or at least our version of it) doesn't like "teleporter" but tries to replace it with "teleported".

You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

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

but wouldn't the monkeys still need a teleporter?
Or is that what MM is for?

Fernet is on there!
Calamari and octopus are acquired tastes? I don't think so - unless what needs to be acquired is tolerance to tentacle food?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Reading that list leads me to believe that maybe my extreme tastes in food come from my Japanese heritage. I mean, I grew up eating nori (salty), octupus (chewy), eel (strong), ume (bitter), sushi (raw), azuke (sweet), etc., etc. No wonder I was unbothered by things like snake, horse, etc. later in life.

Keep breathing!
Nilly-ing request:
I just watched the video version of "Into the Woods" this weekend and liked it very much. I know there was a whole Sondheim discussion a while back, which I skipped over mostly, since I'd never seen or heard any of the shows. Can anyone point me to it now? I promise never to skip Sondheim again!
Thanks -

Be brave, sarameg. I'm sure it won't be as bad as all that, and at least it will be over soon.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What does snake taste like? I always imagine it as something like fish. I also never thought much about the taste of horse, just that I prefer animals that get less exercise.
That list of acquired tastes is weird. Talk about subjective.
