Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.  

[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.

My job is apparently to hit every store I can for chocolate, opiates, and basal thermometers.

Damn, I'm spending the Apocalypse with Jilli.

Although I'm suspicious of the basal thermometers. Are they like, rectal thermometers? However, I suppose if one has to spend the Apocalypse with something stuck up one's ass, it's best to do it with a quantity of chocolate and opiates.

Trust my rage

(A basal thermometer goes in your mouth. I was freaked out too at first.)

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

I was thinking, "A thermometer to measure spice temperature?"

Rock on! I mean, not that I want the Apocalypse to happen, but if it does, I'll have fun company.

"A thermometer to measure spice temperature?"
Bwah. Given some particularly hot spicy things I'd like to avoid (ever taken a bit out of a Scotch Bonnet pepper? Yeah. Don't.), this sounds like a gadget to have.

In the Apocalypse, basal thermometers will be good for tracking fertility and such for the re-population. But honestly, just surviving should be motivation enough to be like the bunnies, regardless of ovulation cycles!

I wonder what my Apocaplyse Skill Set would be?

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Depending on the circumstances of the apocalypse and the level of technology left afterward, all that military history I've been reading might actually come in handy.

Failing that, I used to help my parents in the garden, and I've successfully produced sparks from flint and steel.

I think my Apocalypse Skill Set would be to "prevent others from doing stupid shit." I imagine saying the following phrases a lot:

  • Don't do that - it'll explode!
  • Don't do that - we'll asphyxiate!
  • Don't do that - it'll release radiation everywhere!
  • Don't do that - all the crops will die and we'll starve!
  • Don't do that - the beer won't ferment correctly!
