Merry Christmas, Fay! I don't think we've gotten to meet yet, either. After lurking for a while I finally decided to join a couple weeks ago. It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
And we live to fight another day.

[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.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
OMG Ms Bhutto was assassinated! What's strange is while at bosses place last night, we heard about 6 fighter jets scramble from the navel air base. (an unusual event). But that was 12 hours before the incident.
I wish the Buffista~ma was strong enough to will World Peace.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I would not and still will not ask strangers to watch my food. I also avoid bringing open food into public restrooms.
The two policies have been okay in conjunction with each other so far.
I was just telling my sister about being dicked over by NWA (the airline, not the rap group) when the desk lady told me "At least you'll walk again! My aunt is dead!" The nurse trying to insert an IV in me as I was recounting the story about brayed with laughter. Flying sure makes for some stress, and not just on one side of the equation.

Does an appointment at the Genius Bar cost money?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
I would not and still will not ask strangers to watch my food.
I'm just surprised to hear Laga's POV, that the customers must not trust the theatre employees to watch their food. The question of trust wouldn't even enter into it for me; I just thought it was rude, in an imperious sort of way, to be all, "Oh, even though you're busy waiting on other customers, I need you to watch *my* food for me while I pee."
I totally would have expected Laga to say something like "I can't believe that customers expect the employees to watch their food, when the employees have *other* customers to wait on!"
Just goes to show, I'm damned if I do, and need to remember to not take my food in the bathroom with me at the theatre.

It struck me as rude and therefore unsafe--if I have no right to ask someone to watch my food, who knows what happens to it when my back is turned?
And then, even if it's not rude, some people just suck.

Cereally, if you're comfortable taking your food in with you, I think you should ignore everyone (including me) that thinks it's weird. Your food, and you know what happens to it.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Good points all.
Mind you, I share the sense of squick at finding a Taco Wrapper in the loo. Because - ew.
