I've seen honest faces before. They usually come attached to liars.

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."

sj, I hope you purchased it used. IJS.

Eh, I got it on sale, but I have found it entertaining enough to be worth it.

sj - don't forget her surname. She thinks she's an ugly duckling! But really she's a swan! SWAN! Ho ho!

I couldn't get past the PotC reference on Swan.

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

Cashmere, just nudging to remind you of t span class="spoiler" t /spoiler for mommyfont if you don't want to use the quick edit tag. Iffen you don't want me to remind, hush me.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Thanks, ita. With enough reminders and I'll remember to use it!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oh, and Tep, if you're around, I heard your theme song today.

Holy crap! That is the best thing in the history of best things! And her sidekick is a monkey!!!

I wonder if I can get an adult-sized "Word Girl" t-shirt?

Hey there, lovely! Have you read Evernight yet? (Claudia Gray)

I heard about it while perusing my LJ FriendsFriends list; after reading the synopsis at Amazon, I decided I'd like to read it, but only via the library. So whenever they get it, I'll read it.

I'm currently awaiting David Schwartz's book Superpowers, which should ship on June 10. (David Schwartz, for those who don't know, was a Buffista back in the day. He was part of the multitude of Davids, which led to the renaming of the Davids -- he became Knut the Difficult [this is all recorded somewhere in the FAQ].)

I am slowly amassing an entire shelf's worth of books by Buffistas/former Buffistas. That pleases me to no end.

Yeah, I was going to say that Evernight, while not my beautiful cake, or whatever that phrase is (clearly that phrase, also not my [whatever phrase is]) was written by an awesome fannish LJer sort, so I respect that, even if the teeny vampire thing ain't my cuppa.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yep yep yep to both awesome fannish types and teeny vampire things.

Oh, looky. The Twilight movie trailer is out.

All the descriptions everybody has given of these books make them sound spectacularly stupid. Also like it would make a FRIGGING TERRIBLE MOVIE.

The trailer seems to completelu fulfill that promise.

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?

I suspect it will probably do fairly well in the theatres. My students LOVELOVELOVE OMG SO MUCH LOVE for the series. Keep in mind, I teach middle school.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

What Meara said. I'm very much in the 'OMG! My people! My people with the publishing! Again! Go Team!' mindset. Since she's one of the reasons I started reading any fanfic at all, back in the day.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I just amused myself greatly. I was watching "million dollar password" and I like to close my eyes and try to guess the clue. The word was "bridge" First clue "water" second clue "walking". My guess? Jesus.
