You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Allyson- I am glad things seem to have worked out. When did your job change-- I guess I still thought you were keeping away the bureacrxy while replugging routers and proofreading press releases!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

That was the reaction my son gave me about Facebook. "Really, Mom, don't do it."

Heh, I get the opposite from my daughter. "Why haven't you friended V yet?", "She is one of your friends, honey", "Yeah, but she treats you like a mom - go friend her".

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What if, say, you're a witness to something, but not a suspect? Or is it possible the cops might pretend that you're not a suspect, but you really are, so you still shouldn't talk to the police without a lawyer even if you're just a witness (as far as you know)?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Erin! It's been forever since I posted with you. How are you doing?

Nilly!! Hi, sweetie. Yeah, my internet is what we would call...sporadic, so I dash on and off like a married boyfriend.

I am doing well. I am looking frantically for another teaching position before the school year starts (loong story).

Laundry is my least favorite chore. I hate it. Which is probably why I have a wee Mt. Everest of dirty clothes a-building on my closet floor. It will form a little island in a while.

Sounds like you are super busy! Drink water. Stay hydrated.

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

Nobody has any colour palette answers for me? Yay? Nay?

You know, I should just not be shopping instead. That's much more sensible. I should go iron today's skirt.

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

All others... well, you were warned.

Oh, Toddson, I owe you an answer from the last Natter thread: Hebrew computers can have two options: either the English one, which is exactly like any English-speaking computer, or entirely in Hebrew - not just the letters, but all words are translated too (not just transliterated).

Compatibility and switching between the languages is a huge issue, because it's written right-to-left (much like Arabic), much more than translating or having the actual letters (even though their shapes is so different from the English characters).

It's still way easier than having a computer in Chinese, though.

ita, I say yay because I like the shape etc. the pink is a little too orange, and not icy enough. It won't look great on you, but it won't make you look sallow either.
