Spike's Bitches 41: Thrown together to stand against the forces of darkness
[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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
There seems to be this new thing with certain well-read parents that there are conversations which ought to be had, and so I'm often a springboard for, like, The Crip Conversation. Which somehow makes me twitchy, like I'm on a list of Formative Moments or something, and I didn't prepare, or anything. It's weirder too because that's a conversation completely led by the parents: "Oh, um, Snotleigh was just curious about your chair," when that was not the vibe I really get from from little S. herself. It's like they are crossing off Broken People are Really Okay too and they are good to go till she sees the neighbor kid's penis.(edited to put in "kid" so it's not such a heavy context) Somehow it bugs me to be instructive.
A world of agreement to this. Please do not take your kid up to me and ask me to explain to them why I walk funny, especially if I don't know you.
For me it depends on how old the kid is who says something to me. I think school aged children should have learned better, but toddlers don't bother me. It also bugs me if a child is repeatedly and loudly drawing attention to me while their parents pretend to ignore them.

I got a new phone today. Like landline phone. New number, all that jazz. I haven't given the number to anyone and I've already had five calls.

Sounds like having your name put on the do not call list should be part of the package when getting a phone, Victor.

Sounds like having your name put on the do not call list should be part of the package when getting a phone, Victor.Sadly not the case. When I got my mom a cell, she was getting spanish phone calls for a long time. They didn't seem to believe she 1) didn't speak spanish, and 2) that the person they were wanting to talk to didn't have that number anymore. @@
There used to be a significant waiting period before a number was recycled. NSM anymore.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yep. www.donotcall.gov
Ever since I moved and got my new number, I keep getting debt collector calls. At least 1 per week. For several different people. All not me. It gets annoying.
