"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I kept cracking up because he kept apologizing for being so bullish/blunt in my presence. I was like, have you met me? Where do these people get that I'm some sort of easily offended fragile flower?

Oh look, sarameg is me!

About the nice = easily offended. Boy, do I have a lot to say about it, but since I don't have the time, it all sums up to this: I'm usually nice to other people because that's the quickest way to understand what they want from me and get rid of them.

Now, if I could only understand why am I the one everyone asks about buses at bus stops, even when the bus stop has 20 other people in it without headphones and music on...

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

whoa, I so read that the wrong way.

Not yet sleeping to the top. Not ruling it out, however.

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

Sleeping your way to the top? It's the possibility of trial and error that would worry me the most. It's the sort of thing you want to do right the first time.

My Trashy Diva dress didn't fit. The stretch on the XS isn't what I'd hoped. If anyone wants to buy it off me (no returns), it's the lovely polka dotted voile.

Sure looks purty.

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

Actually Tamara I thought you were pregnant. whoops.

Oh no ita, yours too? I got the S not the XS and I think it'd fit you.

"My horse! Hold your fire--he has my horse!"

To stop firing would be "suspendre le tir", but I think you probably want "ne pas tirer" which would convey not starting to fire. So, that gives:

Mon cheval! Ne tirez pas--il a mon cheval!

But I would probably say "il a pris mon cheval" (he has taken my horse). It just "yells" better with the extra syllable.
