I hope it makes a difference too, Laga.
vw, if you're around, do you have a minute to get on AIM?
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

[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.

Oh my god, I'm a terrible teacher. I just spent an hour discussing politics and humanitarian aid (the political usefulness of) with my class. My DRAFTING class. Oy. They play me like a fiddle.

They play me like a fiddle.I think it's very important for them to realize that sometimes in the military you are called on for humanitarian missions. But odds are, if drafted, you're gonna be fighting in some war. Who knew they had classes on filling out cards and fleeing to Canada?

(why yes, I am a bit bored at work and avoiding drafting, how could you tell?)

From something I'm editing:
"You've probably received dozens of holiday messages and well wishes. We're encouraging you to take a step further than the joyous well wish."
Well wish? This is profoundly weird phrasing, isn't it?

Or they're working up to proposing an especially fancy wishing well, now with more bling and maybe a few singing fairies.

I just explained the concept of the male gaze to my officemate. That was fun. Though kind of difficult without being able to pull out movie clips and say, "See! Look at this!" (The conversation started when he was mocking women's studies departments, and I reminded him that I was a women's studies minor, and he wanted to know what sort of stuff we studied. I really wanted to be able to just pull out a few scenes from Some Like It Hot, Boys Don't Cry, and Sex in the City, and say, "See? That!")
