Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

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.

Do Doc Martens keep your feet warm? In like, Michigan-cold weather?

I've never been in Michigan cold weather, but they've always kept my feet warm, and i have ice blocks for feet.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'm going to go with: no. When I worked outside in Chicago (which is tropical compared to Michigan) I had waterproof boots with a removable liner. On really bitter days I wore two pairs of tights with cotton socks over them and wool socks over those, plus the boots with the liners. I would wrap a blanket around my feet but I still found my toes starting to numb if I worked a really long shift.

On the other hand if you're just walking from your car to your house Docs should be fine.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

And these: [link]

Are the two styles I'm looking at. And it's not for being outdoors for any amount of time - just basic house to car to other place and back use.

Oh man I gotta fill out an incident report and I don't wanna. Apparantly our maintenance guy surprised a homeless person sleeping underneath a screen this morning with two boxes of Skittles. You pried open the candy case and went for the skittles? Wouldn't Goobers or Raisinettes have been more satisfying?

I have an odd job. A 6' tall Mr. Potato Head just walked into the room.

Does he talk like Don Rickles?

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

You could maybe lure him into a giant microwave....

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

If only there was a Mr. Sour Cream Head.

Somewhere in there is a political joke, I just can't make it line up all clever-like...

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

I wondered what was responsible for over 300 posts in Bitches.

Figures it was the apocalypse.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Aims, for your current lifestyle & weather, I'd recommend boot-style Docs that zip up on the side. I've seen 'em at Zappos.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Tweakers prefer sugar, I think.
