Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I just found the weirdest...well, probably not the *weirdest*...but a weird Internet game.

It's called Six Degress of Wiki Hitler.

Getting to Hitler and the Internet seems pretty easy, don't 75% of Internet arguments eventually bring up Nazis or Hitler. Now six degrees of Zachary Taylor would be a challenge.

I cannot imagine that much togetherness!

Somehow I don't think this Buddhist partnership involves repeatedly punching a monk in the face, and thus I don't think it would be a good fit for my personality. Oh, well!

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

This was later in the article.

But if they have renounced sex, they have replaced it with a level of communion that few other people could understand, much less tolerate.

They eat the same foods from the same plate and often read the same book, waiting until one or the other finishes the page before continuing. Both, they say, are practices of learning to submit one’s will to that of another.

Reading from the same book would be irritating!

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

Whoa, Kat. I admit when I am home I am usually within 15 feet of J plus two dogs and two cats, but I am away at work all day. Not to mention that in MY practice, a little sup'n-sump'n with the DH IS the path to serenity.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Reading from the same book would be irritating!

That whole thing sounds irritating!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The PB&J restaurant in NYC's "Elvis" is:

A grilled peanut Butter sandwich, stuffed with bananas and honey. Try it with bacon for that extra indulgence. Long live the King!

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Wasn't Elvis into grilled PB and banana? ALSO delicious, btw.

Also Peanut butter and pork chop sandwich. A taste he shared with Woody Guthrie. And IMO delicious. Hey, pork and peanuts is not a combination exactly unknown in Thailand.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

FBI looking for informants to infiltrate vegan potlucks: [link]

Then for twenty minutes they flatter me about how my personality and appearance are perfect matches for what is required in some espionage dealio. They wanted me to crash vegan potluck parties and get into the inner circle of terrorists because supposedly terrorists are trusting and I’m “trustable, easy going, funny,” and a bunch of other flattery.

Not exactly sure how reliable a witness the unnamed "activist" is, but interesting.

If nothing else, I would never be able to pee with someone waiting outside the door for me.
