Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

[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.

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

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

You don't scare me. I've faced the narrow-eyed glares of HR Management before and come away alive and unscathed.
Fired, but alive and unscathed.

Cool - Haunted Mansion bash (for those of you in SoCal, and those who might go for a party at the HM.
Is that a wailing and gnashing of teeth (and stamping of feet) I'm hearing from the direction of Seattle?
Yes. Yes it is.
Someday, I will convince someone I know to name their child Clovis. Even as a middle name!

Compassionately intolerant
I'll quit with the cheerleading with this last comment.
MM. If you can perform, projecting even a fraction of the intelligence and wit you display here, you would be a huge success as a speaker/consultant.
I could give you a very long list of people who command high fees for lectures like that...who have no actual 'legitimacy' in the area about which they speak...but who have the kind of passion around an issue that you do.
Not to mention the ULTIMATE customer service of helping customer service people actually do it correctly.

More importantly, can you give me a list of their gullible customers? ;)

Interrupts to show off what Deena just did to my website: [link] It's been all Valentinized. I love it!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Tuesday I got a letter from my credit card company suggesting I was pre-approved for a car loan so I called the number on my card to confirm this and got a rep who could not seem to understand "car loan" "auto financing" or really anything I was trying to ask him. So yeah, definitely accomplished their goal of getting me off the phone quickly but I'm also not going to pursue the loan.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
OK, in the department of "worst baby names..."
I've mentioned my occasional hobby of surfing dominionist/patriarchal Christian websites, largely because I'm pretty sure some of the more extreme of my college friends are in the movement (all of them have generic, useless-to-Google names, so I can't prove it), so I sometimes wonder if there's an alternate reality version of me, one who somehow ended up less independent and feminist, who's living that world.
Anyway, I happened across a young patriarchal couple who named their firstborn son Triumph.
Triumph.
I mean, what's left for their poor second-born, when he or she comes along? S/he'll have to settle for Ovation. And that's not even considering the next ten kids or so....
