[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?"

Owie. Stoopid borderline hypermobility.

Do you ever try wrist splints? I try not to type without them. They make a noticeable difference.

So, this guy doesn't show up for work for a week. Then when he does show up, he assumes he's been fired. But he wasn't, as no one noticed that he wasn't there.

And the guy was getting paid? I have never heard of anywhere where that would be even remotely possible.

Friend coming over for pizza. I love friends!

Like Murray in Flight of the Conchords!

(Or George in that episode of Seinfeld.)

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

No, he wasn't clocking in while he was gone. But he realized that he could have been paid if only he had arranged for someone else to clock in and out for him.

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

Actually, I had a job like that in college doing filing at Evanston Hospital, but it was explicitly in the job description that the hours were "show up when you have time to file and we'll give you stuff to do." So disappearing during finals weeks and spring break was expected.

Fer crying out loud, Vortex! Are you going to try to find someone else to do it?

nah, we've come too far.

She claimed that she'd told her other boss that she was leaving, but didn't fill out any paperwork. That boss is not the most organized of people, so it's possible that she told him, but she didn't follow up with paperwork, so it doesn't count in my book.

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

Pretty, Sail! You're a golden girl.
