Or something!
I'm gonna get a lot of mileage out of it, I think.

Hee! I love your hair, meara. I still can't believe you are on the other side of the country these days. (admittedly, not that I was really good about seeing you when an hour away....)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
maybe even pretty and not a dork.
Obviously.

Well, clearly the girl taking my orders at the Chinese take-out place down the street tunes out as soon as she hears the first word in English out of my mouth. I don't know what the Chinese term for fried rice is, but I'm pretty sure it's not "chow mein."

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

It's chăo fàn. Fried noodles, OTOH, is chăo miàn - or chow mein in transliteration.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".
The Golden Globes without actors is horrifyingly bad.
It is worse than a train wreck.

Huh. So the Chinese versions could actually sound enough alike (given my mangling the language) to be mistaken for one another?
Just tuned in to Extreme Makeover Home Edition, where Ty Pennigton outfitted a family's new house with a bowling alley, homeschooling classroom for both kids, and a Secret of Nimh-themed bedroom complete with agiant dragon for the 12-year-old boy. That kid is NEVER getting laid.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Maybe there's a girl geek dreaming of a guy just like him, Matt.
I'm trying to work out of my McAffrey-obsessed self would have liked that.
I was browsing stocking stores on the web, and was caught by this page. Look at the model! They didn't retouch her or anything.
The site does have a plus size section, so it's clear they aren't pretending all women are petite and thin, but that picture makes it clear that they're not ghetto-ising all women who don't look like the Victoria's Secret women post-Photoshop.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
That site is kind of cool. I want to buy from there!
