[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

o no! Not the both of you? Dang. Was hoping you finally got a day of rest too.

Our wings are not tired

Nope, I'm up at Universal tonight. I need to make sure that things run smoothly the first few nights of the event and then I can start to cut back a bit.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Good luck with the potential future wife, P-C.

Hmm. I think I've figured out the perfect spice proportions for scrambled tofu. Yum. (Though maybe a tiny bit more turmeric and a tiny bit less cumin? And possibly rosemary instead of thyme?)

I hope P-C realizes that if he does marry this woman we'll always refer to her as "#5."

Good luck!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I have a burning question for y'all. In the Gordon Lightfoot song "Sundown", is Sundown the woman the rest of the song is about? Or is it someone else the singer is directing his jealousy against, over the woman? Or am I totally missing the point of the song and it is a metaphor for something else entirely?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Heee. Well, good, now we have a nickname for her in case it goes well and we choose to meet up again.

Translation: stop fucking telling me what's fucking best for me.

My mom's solution to my inability to have her in my apartment for a whole week is to take us both to my grandmother's for the week, where I will be bored out of my mind with no Internet. I completely understand that on a practical level, this looks like a lovely solution where I don't have to do anything and get all my meals made for me, but I didn't ask for this. I was fully prepared to stay BY MYSELF in my apartment, fend for myself, WHATEVER, and mainline Six Feet Under. This is MY surgery and MY recovery and WHY THE FUCK DOES NO ONE UNDERSTAND THAT?

I am twenty-six years old and I feel like I'm being kidnapped by my family.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

P-C, I'm sure we can arrange to have you kidnapped by the people on the Internet. With or without ransom note, whatever you prefer. We'd let you watch 6FU

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

This is MY surgery and MY recovery and WHY THE FUCK DOES NO ONE UNDERSTAND THAT?

Oh honey, they will NEVER understand that. Not with surgery, not with jobs, not with your wife, not with your kids. You'll never get them to understand.

But you CAN get them to respect your wishes if you insist on it. (And my "respect" I don't mean in any emotional sense, but in a practical sense.)

Say "no". Go ahead and piss them off. They'll survive.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

"Mom, with all due respect, that will stress me out worse than staying at my own place. I know you think I'm selfish, but you have to respect my wishes about how I wanted to be treated after my own surgery. I know what's best for me."
