You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

[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.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Shir, I'm following you on twitter. I don't think I have any Buffistas following me there, although I'm happy to have them!

What's the experiment about? (Feel free to just direct me to a post - I came home to about 600 posts on this thread alone...)

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Seska, in short, and because I'm tired, it's about taking this book: [link] and using it as a field guide to Twitter.

Explanations to come.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Now I'm almost wishing I twittered. But not enough to start.

Now I'm almost wishing I twittered. But not enough to start.

I felt like that for ages, until I realised I could get some really interesting and/or grown-up stuff done with it (while having some fun too). I've even been doing campaigning via twitter. This has been weird, but very good.

Cookie Crisp (I hate the stuff. The Girl is living on it at the moment).

Shir, that book sounds fascinating. I might have to try and get hold of it. Once I've finished with everything else I need to read... but definitely looks worth investigating. Good luck with the twitter project!

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

Mom: "Are you on Facebook?"
Me: "I don't use it that much."
Mom: "But are you on it?"
Me: "Yeah, a little."
Mom: "Then why won't you accept my invite??"
Me: "Because you're my MOM."

That fake Facebook message in all-caps about how the guy hadn't called in a while is EXACTLY WHAT MY MOM WOULD WRITE.

move out and draw fire

Me: "Because you're my MOM."

Don't tell her how Orkut is becoming a proxy marriage site. It's apparently starting to take market share from the websites dedicated to finding spouses, and parents in India want to make sure that their kids' Orkut profiles are sufficiently awesome.
