Teppy didn't evangelize, she just honestly and articulately shared. I thought that was very cool.
Wait. Are we talking my kink, or my shady past as a member of a Freak-Ass Church (for which I *did,* in fact, evangelize, I'm ashamed to say)?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Oh and my dad's generation were a little too young for WWII, but my grandfather, after being rejected as too young for the French Military ran away and joined the Canadian Army in Montreal. He was gassed twice and hit with shrapnel and ended up in England recovering.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
aurelia, are you/they sure it's not just the engine computer notifying you of scheduled maintenance for the timing chain?
That's not how it was presented to me, but I don't really know. The owners manual doesn't mention the timing in it's fairly detailed maintenance schedule. I guess I just need to take it to a dealership. Feh. And I'd planned to visit family this weekend.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
aurelia, my boss (who knows an awful lot about cars) says, "if it's time to change the timing chain, it's time to change the timing chain" and that if you're gonna keep the car it's something that's gonna need to be done.
He also searched online and finally found that the Monte Carlo switched to a timing chain for '98. (He found that at the NAPA site.)

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
Did anyone else read Infinite Jest? I've always thought about that long footnote where they talk about how some people can turn even not-using-things-as-crutches into a crutch, or something like that. Only probably with more "and so but then"s.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
his wife, Pat, didn't wear a mink, but a good Republican cloth coat.
Aha. Because I was sitting here thinking, cloth coat as opposed to... a coat made out of newspapers?? A coat of doughnuts woven together on chain link??
Sometimes, my imagination is problematic that way. Mink did not even enter into the equation.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Tep--your kink.

Anyone who tries to proselytize to me learns that it backfires quite spectacularly unless the doctrine in question involves things like boys in eyeliner or Apple products.
Yes. Any vegan who tries to take away my bacon will find out first hand how I believe in the killing of animals.

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