[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.

“Not dead yet!”

I need word help-- something similar in meaning to slighted or "put off"/dismissed. Basically when someone feels as if they're being ignored, even if they're really not. (Sort of like my mother...)

I know there's a word, but at the moment, it's utterly escaping me. I swear, my brain has become a sieve.

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

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

Patronised?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Patronized is close to what I'm looking for. Man, I hate, hate, HATE this feeling. Words are usually at my disposal, but every now and again, I need one and it just utterly escapes me.

There's a word for that feeling but I can't remember what it is.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

They probably have a word for it in German.
