[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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I'm pretty certain I used "He's not my president" numerous times throughout Bush's term, but at least I did my level best only to say it in front of people who I felt pretty certain agreed with me, and if I thought otherwise I tried to keep my mouth shut. It's an understandable sentiment, but it's just kind of tacky to express it in front of people who you know disagree passionately.

Not to mention, if you're a student saying this to a teacher who disagrees? Both tacky and deeply, deeply stupid.

That's a great-awful article, Toddson, though the comments fill me with terror. Seriously, some people think the authorities should "investigate" that family because the house in the picture is too messy? I tremble to think how they'd judge the rest of us; I know for damn sure that if the house in that picture is too messy for children, our apartment is downright abusive.

Damn. Patrick Stewart.

Patrick Stewart was one of the answers at trivia last night! (There was a whole section where all the answers were "famous Patricks"--sadly, I managed to completely not come up with "lead singer of Fall Out Boy" while going "dangit, I know half the Buffistas are ogling him RIGHT NOW in their dreams!")

Aimee, I hope the doc fixes what ails you.

People actually eat peeps? I learn somethin' new every day here!

New parent hivemind question: private cord blood banking or no? (the hospital where I'll deliver does not participate in a public bank) if so, any opinions on companies?

Oh, they totally ate them. Actually, when I told them what we were doing, one of the boys said, "I hate Peeps! They're disgusting. I want blue!"

Sparky, no unless you know of a possible need already (like, you have a known genetic condition): [link]

We have a strong family history of cancer on one side (three different kinds in three different nonsmokers), so I definitely would have done it if I'd had time to arrange it. But I'd just barely started gathering materials and looking at the different companies (as in, making a list, not even actually comparing them) when Matilda made her early entrance.

eta: I definitely would have donated if it had been an option at our hospital, but IIRC it wasn't.

Thanks, flea. I'll have to check the lists of what's being researched for what floats around the DH's family. I hate these companies that prey on my guilt and never-good-enough fears.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Is LJ acting up for anyone else? I can hit my home page, but not my friends page or anyone else's journal pages.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Sparky, I banked blood for my surgery because I am not able to be a blood donor (lived in the UK too long), and I didn't want to take blood from the supply and not be able to replenish it. Just a thing of mine, I guess. I want to give blood, but they won't let me because of MAD COW. Do I look crazy?

Wait, don't answer that. It's not the MAD COW!
