GF and I were doing the old, "I just love Shane..." from the movie.
Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

[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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yorick and Hero are from the (fabulous and wonderful) comic Y the Last Man.
Which I have just recently posted about!

Retreats that management thinks will magically overcome organizational and personnel issues through forced socialization: Not OK.
My experience is this, with varying degrees of excruciating boredom, annoyance and lingering bitterness.

I love me some Y: The Last Man. Even after what they did to 355. Woe.
So I've volunteered for this [link]
Naked... yay?

Woe.
Jars, I seriously could not go on to the next issue for several minutes after that. I thought I was ready a couple times, and then I couldn't do it.

Agreed. Hated to see 355 go.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I'm currently wary of anything in the shape of a retreat because last time we had one--OK, it was on-site, but a long meeting with an outside facilitator to deal with team-building issues--it turned out to be a bait and switch to get someone fired.
But I've yet to go on a work-related retreat that I didn't at least dislike. I don't like enforced team-building and the whole rah-rah cheerleading attitude where I'm supposed to get all glowy-eyed and embrace the mission. I actually like my current organization's mission and am happy to support it, but I don't want to embrace it as such, because this is my JOB, not my LIFE. So attempts to make me a good little team drone just anger me.

Oh I also love the name Clara but GF quickly axed it. It's so cute!

I just... I still don't understand it. I really, really though they deserved a happy ending. I was crying like a little girl.
