Did I mention my copyeditor loved it? Actual words used: "brilliant" and "most satisfying thing I've read lately (work or otherwise)."
Your copyeditor is a master of understatement.
That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.

Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.
[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.

Not at all shitbaggy. Which is a word i fully intend to use starting... now.
We also use it as a noun. "Look at Mariah Carey swanning down the aisle. What a shitbag!"

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.
Stephanie, I hope Ellie gets to feeling better soon. It sounds like you have a good plan.
Emmett makes me smile.
At work today, I caught part of a Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom called "Heart of a Lioness" [link] in which a solitary lioness adopted an oryx calf who had been separated from its mother. Wow. Also, perhaps predictably, not a happy ending.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
"Shitbag" gets better and better. Please tell me it's a verb too? (e.g. "shitbagging down that aisle")

Yes, it is also used as a verb ("she's shitbagging it up over there").

This use of "shitbag" was born in 1999, when GF pronounced someone as such out of the blue (see Mariah Carey quote above, American Music Awards). There was discussion of starting a Web site (shitbag.com) on which would be featured "Shitbag of the day," "Queen Shitbag," "King Shitbag," "Little Miss Shitbag," "Little Lord Shitbag," etc. There was also to be a feature in which users could send online cards featuring a shitbag of their choice (uploaded from their computers).

Hey. New board.
I will invest in that site.

not your mom's socks.
Is this too shitbaggy for an academic publication:
Gloomcookie - it sounds right in tune, actually. Check out the latest from boxes and arrows. [link]
much feeling better for Ellie, Stephanie.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
My head still hurts. I had much to do today and have done none of it. Naps and drugs and pain. I feel shitbaggy.
I hope Ellie is feeling better.
