Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

It does seem a shame to toss out the baby (oops) with the bathwater, but maybe you don't place much value on the baby in the first place.

I honestly have no idea what you are driving at here, or that you had such a strong attachment to whatever "baby" it is I've tossed out the window. But if it's merely a grammatical correction you're making I'm just as happy with ending the discussion here.

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

The Bender Balls would fit in perfectly with the decor of my apartment--balls of various sitting about. However, one of those preceding balls is the standard workout ball which lets you do much of what the Bender cites as so revolutionary--involve yourself in a situp beyond the horizontal plane. So very exciting.

I was worried

You shouldn't let them worry you. By and large, they're harmless.

I know you're not supposed to be able to target weight loss, but I can't help thinking that what if the core training could take inches off the waist (they promise 2 in the first 2 weeks) and not off the hips, that'd rock.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

you are my opposite workout wisher. For the most part I want my waist left alone and all sort of not physically possible transformations to happen on my hips and thighs

Huh, really? Because I'm at the point where all I want to do is lose inches off my waist. Should I go back and look at the link?

I put that very clumsily. Nutty was the "you" (should have said "one") in question in my statement--having all men irritate her because some men do something is tossing the baby (men who don't devalue women thusly) out with the bathwater (men who are that icky). As far as semantics go I was suggesting she was generalising rather than characterising, but as I type that out again it becomes even more meaningless.

They have teh gays in Texas, I'm sure

As someone who lives at the gayest straight bar or the straightest gay bar (depending on whether you read the Voice or the Observer), yes. Yes we do.

Miss y'all!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I did that earlier. It's made the rest of the day interesting.

I just took a squick stroll through some thread archives and found where I delurked over seven years ago.

My posting style was somewhat twee.

That was weird. Remind me not to do it again.
