Spike's Bitches 39: Cuppa Tea, Cuppa Tea, Almost Got Shagged, Cuppa Tea...  

[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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

God, I miss Betsy.

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

Yeah, but they just keep clicking "read new" and never get around to accomplishing anything.

That explains a LOT.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I believe Dr. Satan was before my time. What was he/she like?

Before Adam? Not a man among us can remember.

Er, I think he was... nice. Knowledgeable.

(I was thinking about saying no graphing calculators, but I decided to see how it goes this time.)

The Navy solved that by only letting us use calculators with 25 keys or less on our rating exams. Not that anything we did required having graphing functions, but there were a few things that were made just a tad harder. They took my calculator away from me one year (I didn't count the keys, sigh) and I ended up doing all my math by hand. It wasn't a huge problem, except for the fact we had a three hour time limit and that test took me down to the wire. I realized partway through the test I was using 10 to the fourth for 1000 instead of 10³. Duh.

edited because there's no html entity for superscript 4. Bummer.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

here's no html entity for superscript 4.

Thanks, Tom! I know I won't remember that, but at least now I know it exists and I just need to keep looking on the chart.
