No sumi, I tend to go with slides, crocs, or sandals. I tend to think of shorts as functional rather than fashionable clothing.
I like money better than people. People can so rarely be exchanged for goods and/or services!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Hm. Well, he's also not writing about fandom-stuff. But I think that for the most part, the nastiest hate mail I've gotten has been from men. Men will write long essays with examples illustrating how awful and illogical I am and how destructive it is to the site to have someone like me on staff, and how they totally know people who have met me in person and hate me. From women, the hate mail usually has a more, I don't know, officious tone. Like, "I'm just writing to let you and your employers know that you're an evil harpy, thanks."
Maybe the difference is that hate mail from women is at least shorter. Now I'll have to make a spreadsheet....

I don't usually worry about the stumpy. More about whether the shorts make me look like my hips are freakishly hippy. Which knee length shorts often do, the way they're cut. But sometimes they don't.
The stumpy, I just go with.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Shorts with high heels make me feel vaguely murderous. They Just Don't Work.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wow, that was almost supernaturally douchey.
It is gorgeous outside here. I don't know what to do with my day!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
After a night spent watching flesh-eating shadows and people being condemned to fake virtual lives (neither of which managed to scare me much at all), I had a Sex and the City-themed nightmare that ended when I realized I was Carrie Bradshaw and snapped awake in horror.
Can't sleep, ass-ruffle will eat me...

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Yikes, Matt, that does sound scary.
