You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And "everyone knows" that men get better with age, unlike women. (Barf.)

Because books.

See, I always thought MILF was just something teenage boys came up with when faced with a friend's mom who was hot. Sort of a "Stacy's Mom" thing.

Me, too!

(The hilarity when my brother married a woman named Stacy was undercut by his unblinking threats of maiming should anyone play that song at the reception.)

(Nope, nobody -- including me -- was dumb enough to even try to play it. Although Stacy's mom [that is, my brother's MiL] is attractive.)

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Coming in late ... but cougar always struck me as moderately favorable - kind of, she's going after younger men and she gets them.

Silver fox is pretty much gender-neutral, but strikes me as mostly favorable - i.e., the hair's white, but they're attractive.

And years ago, chickenhawk was used of men who preyed on underage boys. Usage may have changed.

Me three. In fact, i feel like I started hearing it around the Stacy's mom/American Pie time.

I think it started out that way, but I have heard younger men (the rugby boys, not sure if that's a representative sample), notice an attractive older woman across the bar and say "whoa, check out the MILF."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

the Stacy's mom/American Pie time.

ISn't there a big gap between those two? I thought Stacy's Mom was relatively recent.

American Pie the movie (I'm assuming), not the song.

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

American Pie came out around 1999, Stacy's Mom around 2003 or 2004.
