A gecko once bit my sister. Also, I understand they are partial to carrots.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

[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.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

I have to say, I don't think I could ever buy Geico insurance because of the idiocy of their ads.
Ha, I love their ads. I used to say that when I finally had a car, I would get Geico just because of the ads. Of course, I discovered they were not the cheapest to insure my old-ass Sentra with minimal coverage, but they are, apparently, the cheapest to insure my new-ass Mazda6 with good coverage. State Farm, which is who I have now, gave me the most expensive online quote of all (I would probably get a lower rate if I actually asked an agent, but I can't imagine it would be as low as Geico's, if their base quote for a new customer is close to $400 higher).

Well, I've stopped feeling like I'm freezing while the room temperature's in the 70s and I'm under two blankets. Also, 6 rolaids and a bowl of bread pudding seems to be exactly what my upset stomach needed.
My car's insured through State Farm. I also have my renters insurance through them, and I get a discount for multiple accounts.

I don't have renter's insurance. I have thought about getting it, but I don't know how it works. My main experience with insurance has been with USPS, when my insurance was a waste of money because when the things I shipped were lost and/or damaged, they didn't do shit.

Well, geckos aren't unionized.
Hah, yes they are. Back in the day before they opened the gates to all comers, GEICO stood for Government Employees Insurance Company. I'm guessing that also has some impact on their risk pool, actually.

Get it. Especially if you can group it with your auto coverage. Seriously, get it.

On the other hand, that is a total scam. IMandyourE, apparently.

I got it when I moved my piano and a washer-dryer set into my apartment. Before then I didn't have anything that I couldn't replace out of Freecycle or family attics. Now if I get robbed or my neighbor leaves a candle unattended I should be able to go out an buy replacements for most of my stuff.

I don't have too much of value besides my computer and my TV and my books and my DVDs. Er, what I'm saying is, how do they know how much my possessions are worth? My DVDs are mostly replaceable, but my books are...BOOKS! You can't replace books. Well, you can, but now when you have a lot of used books and books you've read and copies you're fond of and come on you're Buffistas.

My insurance agent asked me to estimate how much it would cost to replace my goods, and based her insurance quote on that figure.

Mostly lurking...
Sitting in the dark family room at the ER, waiting for an actual room. I've been here since 5:04. This is going to be a long night. I hate my brain. Stupid migraine-holding-on-brain. Good boyfriend, though.
