I'm thinking they'd object, and not just to the slur.
Of COURSE this is right when I stopped reading. Anyway, oops. I did, of course, mean kefir. I could have sworn that was how I saw it spelled before! Anyway, thanks.
And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Anyway, thanks.
I've known the meaning of the word kafir (or kaffir) way longer than I have keffir (eta: see? I can't even spell it now), so I'm always primed for that slip of the keyboard or brain. Hope I didn't sound too flip.

Phone: *Hey. Guess what? Ring.*
Me: Aw dang.
Fuckcake O' the Day: I want to talk to a manager!
Me: Okay. What is this regarding?
FCOtD: Me wanting to talk to a manager!
Me: Well, I need to know *which* manager to direct your call to. So, what is this regarding?
FCOtD: I was just speaking with So-and-so and she hung up on me! I don't care if she "can't talk to me", but hanging up is completely unacceptable!
Me: Okay, what were you talking to So-and-so about?
FCOtD: My ex-husband has (issue that is totally his fault and he's trying to get out of it and we've dealt with assface for four days now).
Me: Your ex-husband?
FCOtD: Yes.
Me: Well...we can't talk to you. It's a violation of the Privacy Act.
FCOtD: ...what if I get him to call and give permission?
Me: Then we can talk to you.
FCOtD: I'll do that.
Me: That would be fine.
FCOtD: And I'm going to get So-and-So fired!
Me: Good luck with that.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
My bathroom is maybe 5'x6'. Maybe.
That's bigger than mine, I'm pretty sure.
Add to that the fun of having only a clawfoot tub (no built-in shower), and we had to get a shower enclosure so that I could shower in the morning. It is, however, a very small radius, so when I'm showering, the shower curtain is contstantly clinging to my gigantic wet ass, and I want to rip it down in frustration.
I'm hoping for a better solution (I had suggested one of those companies where they turn your tub into a tub-with-shower by putting a fiberglass dealie over your existing tub, but The Boy wanted to preserve the original clawfoot, which I respect, but the shower curtain constantly clinging to me like some weepy ex-BF is driving me BATSHIT).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
FCOtD: And I'm going to get So-and-So fired!
Me: Good luck with that.
Heh. If this were a just universe, people like FCOtD would be made to suffer. Lots.

not your mom's socks.
Steph - we have one in our guestroom and for the inside liner, we're going to be getting a shower curtain with magnets in it so that it sticks to the tub, and not to us or our guests -
eta - whoops, wrong link. [link]

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Our bathroom is about what, honey? 10 x 12? Maybe a bit bigger. It was the third bedroom when the house was built in 1896, but was then turned into the bathroom when the house got indoor plumbing.

I sometimes try to comfort myself with the thought that they are suffering, constantly. Being this stupid means that their every day life is a trial of confusion and frustration. E.g. "You should try looking at things on the Internet." "What the hell is that? Can I eat it?"

Anyone here rented a place in the Outer Banks? The DH and I are thinking of going down to Kitty Hawk in April. Anything I should I know about locations?
