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.

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

Okay, that Obama t-shirt is da bomb. I want one.

That ill-fated balloon flight reminds me of the Myth Busters episode. He should have watched it, then he'd have known to bring along a bb gun to get himself down.

I am so tired. I had a bout of insomnia last night that turned into an anxiety fest. Lucky for me today DH got up early so I could sleep in. Now he's taken the car for the day 'cause he needed it for work, but the upside for me is he dropped the kids off at daycare. I feel lucky. But I also feel like I should use the extra time he's given me to TCB instead of frittering on the internet, taking a shower, etc.

Punishingly Intricate

Twitter was great for when my friend was in labor for a very long time indeed. Her husband could post updates to twitter from his blackberry.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Huh. I don't know how many of my friends use that to know if it'd be useful or not.

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

twitter is fabulous. But my twitter screen is currently full of nothing but people I work with, so all y'all need to join and/or tweet.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I am in Twitter. My DH got me in, as all of his journo friends are on it. They can link to latest columns, etc. and keep track of each others' writing. I am TheScrap, if anyone wants to follow me or vice versa.

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

Is "please advise" hopelessly passive aggressive business writing? I've already used "as per", so I'm rocking the style.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

KB now has a twitter thingie.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I don't think it is passive aggressive, ita.

Is "please advise" hopelessly passive aggressive business writing?

I get instantly angry whenever someone uses it on me, but since I'm unemployed right now, I say go ahead and rock the passive aggressive.
