That's not true. Every time you unleash a nefarious plot to take over Sang Sacre you have lots of interesting things to say.
Good times.
Xander: Just once I'd like to run into a cult of bunny worshippers. Anya: Great. Thank you very much for those nightmares.

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.

“Not dead yet!”
Oy-- just came from a meeting with all of Nate's teachers. They all said the same thing. Bright kid, easily distracted, has attitude (although not to the point of ever being sent to the office) is incredibly disorganized, and isn't working up to his potential.
Tell me something I don't know.
My head hurts.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
But the whole point of those movies is that they are torture porn!
Yes, and I certainly don't mean to imply that Twitter is torture porn. I was just surprised that they were so blase about actual torture and critiquing it for failing to seem tortuous enough to merit moral outrage.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Aside from the attitude (or maybe I had that too and just didn't realize) Nate is me. I turned out OK.

Good times.
Someday I need to go back and read the whole Aeshma vs. Miracleman saga again.
My head hurts.
Oh, man good luck with all of that. That sounds a bit like Leif, but right now Leif can sort of coast because 2nd grade is so easy for him. He doesn't have attitude though, that's his sister's job.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I kinda want to bop all your students and say "so imaginary pain caused to imaginary people in the plot of a Make believe movie make you think torture to real people is not that big of a deal. How would you feel about me shooting you, or even punching you repeatedly about the midsection? Here let me let you watch all the Bourne movies and anything that Stratham dude has been in first, maybe that will change your mind. also? you are an idiot." but, you know me, I'm judgey.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, they are nuts. Or, what msbelle said.

I guess that would depend on who you are subscribed to.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I suspect people think waterboarding is roughly equivalent to being dunked in the pool.
My solution is that everybody that doesn't think waterboarding is torture should have to endure it.
