it's ... it's like that whole site is chock-full of anti-Nora.
Kaylee: You're nice, too. Mal: No, I'm not. I'm a mean old man.

[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.

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

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
THANK you! I got the giant cat... thing, and Tom got the tweety birds and angels. I mean, I understand that some people may really love that kind of thing and I respect that. but that is so not my style that I'm kind of actually mad at my mom for spending money on stuff that we totally do not want, need, appreciate, or enjoy on any level.
I know it sounds awful of me, but I just wish she hadn't gotten me anything. I don't WANT anything.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I try not to bitch about her weird gift giving, because I know she means well, but it's like she doesn't understand that other people might not like all the things she is currently obsessed with!
But I am a bit taken aback by this. Ah well. That's what eBay is for, right?

I can't get the clicky links to work on my phone, but now I am very curious about what they are.

I'm glad that TCG and Mom know my taste because the rest of my family doesn't. My aunt got me a sweater in a particular color, because I liked that color at 13. I think she got 13 and 31 confused.

“Not dead yet!”
Well, considering I was convinced I wasn't getting squat from my mother this year, I ended up with a very nice pair of earrings. Not necessarily a pair I would've chosen for myself, but nice enough and versatile enough that I'll definitely wear them.
She seemed to like her gifts well enough. At least she didn't make outright faces and answer noncommittally when asked what she thought.
This is an improvement over previous years.
We made it through more than 24 hours without mention of my father although she managed to mention every other relative on his side of the family. I'm afraid she's working her way up to it.
I just need to survive until very early Saturday morning.
