Happy bday Teppy!
Love isn't brains, children, it's blood, blood screaming inside you to work its will.

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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Awwww, Pete! PeteTheCat, that is!
...OH! Did you call her Pete because she's adorable? Was that your rationale? Because I like it! I like it a lot!
So, hivemind: what's that term for the thing you do in a debate, where you come up with some egregious thing that's supposed to prove your point, rather than actually, you know, PROVING YOUR POINT. You know, like: "And besides, Stoppard was a good friend of mine, so clearly I must be right in my interpretation of his play!" Or maybe: "What's more, I have a hole in my heart, so I would never ever have dreamed of following Atkins, however desperate I got!" Or: "I have an English degree, so I certainly had no problem understanding the book."
I know there's a term for this dick-measuring point-scoring crap, but I can't think what it's called. Anyone?

Well, you have her house, her hot tub and her dog at the moment, so commenting on her DH doesn't seem much of a leap.

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

My usual source for that sort of thing didn't turn up any obvious answers, so I propose a new logical fallacy be added to the list - Argument From Being An Asshole.

We're having huge thunderstorms here today. Every time I think it's done, it starts back up again. My plans to go back to the farmer's market are on hold.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I like the term coined on these boards, an argument ex cloaca.

Sox, if you see a couple at the beach with a wee Boston Terrier they're calling Miyagi, say "Hello!" for Sass, the DH and I.
