Latest swine flu rumor I heard on the internet: Donald Rumsfeld is invested in the companies making the vaccine, and he's stirring up fear of the flu so that he can make a profit on the vaccine. Also, in Canada, the population being hit most severely by the flu is First Nations, so it must be some sort of genocide conspiracy.
I like the ruffles.

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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
The problem with the claw hammer is that the claw will get stuck in the skull.
I'd use the other end, I'm just saying I think more people own claw hammers than ball peen hammers. I'd never even heard of one until I read "Harrison Bergeron".

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'd use the other end
Too blunt, maybe? The peen offers the perfect kill stroke of a penetrating blow without any danger of sticking in the head.
Not too sharp, not too blunt. It'd kill Goldilocks dead.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Hil, I would strongly advise you to find another professor that you can work with on your writing, even if you don't officially switch advisors. But the relationship between you and your advisor has grown too toxic for you to keep working in it. So go around him.

Growing up, I always pretended that I was a witch or vampire princess. Yes, with a castle, sparkly black dresses with fluffy skirts, and legions of minions and flying monkeys that would do my bidding.

My friends and I used to run around school all day pretending we were mermaids. Good times.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
My friends and I used to run around school all day pretending we were mermaids.
There is something wrong with this sentence.

Maybe they were the kind with the upper-body of a fish.

There's only so long you can sit around with your ankles crossed pretending it's a tail. Eventually you have to hoof it if you want to move.
