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

It's a condition! You're not responsible!

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

I learnt about tramp stamps after having moved to Cali. Wifebeater is mostly divorced from its origin, but not entirely because I want a better easily recognised term. Tramp stamp is totally not because just about every time I hear them referred to it's in a "Fwarrrr, that's hot!" or "As if!" context. So not divorced from sex.

I think I am a part of this Raunch Culture, and I bear no great because of it. Sadly, I'm learning that people have thought I was in RC from 20 years ago, so I guess I have lost time to make up for. Because 20 years ago it wouldn't have occurred to me that being found attractive (or just feeling attractive) was useful or purposeful.

This explains so much of my life.

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

Tramp stamp is a clever term, but it doesn't apply to every single lower back tat. It seems pretty appropriate for a certain tattoo trend, though -- if I can see the top of your ass crack, it's trampy.

"Dear boss, Once I dreamed I was a butterfly. But perhaps I am a butterfly dreaming I am a person, and everything (you included) are just part of my dream. So I am not coming in to work today, just in case I should suddenly find myself naked."

I think that with or without a tatoo.

Since I'm already at work and I want to look at eyeglass frames at the place around the corner, I figure I won't declare myself in dire need of nappy times and go home sick.

I mean, my iPod is charged and one of my supervisors is engaging in e-mail warfare which is kind of entertaining me right now.

Thanks, megan! I assume the capitalization is required?

Most definitely (divine right and all that). I even contemplated capitalizing the "vous" in the response, but decided against it in the end.
