I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.

[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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I don't know if it will or not, but she'll have a harder time ignoring it.

See, she hides stuff from us so that she won't have to admit he's a douche so she doesn't look dumb for being with him.

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

If it were me and my BF knew my boyfriend were cheating on me, I'd want that friend to tell me.

Mostly lurking...

I'm with Burrell. I'd be really upset with a manipulated situation.

I would LOVE to just say "hey, you didn't get your stuff in on time, you don't get to present", but that would cause a world of shit.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Is this graded? or can you compliment the on - time people?

i'm completely 100% with Burrell. though, by the sound of it, your BFF seems a bit like an ostrich with her head in the sand.

I'm with Burrell. I'd be really upset with a manipulated situation.

Given the history, though, I think the straightforward approach isn't going to go any better, and may actually have more blowback for Daisy. I think I'd probably go ahead and invite and let things play out as they may.

Sadly, Daisy, it doesn't sound like anything is getting through to her--but I'd be tempted to invite the people and just see what happens, anyway...

Vortex, is there ANYTHING you can do to punish the people who are late? Do you have any power in this situation? Cause damn, that's just shitty. "Oh, I decided your deadline wasn't important and told the students to ignore it without talking to you"? WTF? "Well, I decided you're stupid, and told the students to quit listening to you"

no, it's not graded, it's for my summer program. I'm going with disappointment, because I am. The utter lack of respect for me and the deadline is depressing.

Theoretically, I can reduce their stipend, but the paperwork would be a pain in the ass since it's already set up.
