Just got a mild smack down for something I didn't even realize was obnoxious and now I'm ready to cry.
Aw, what happened, babe?

Tara: That was funny if you've studied Taglarin mystic rites and... are a total dork... Riley: Then how come Xander didn't laugh?

[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!”
It was stupid, really-- just an email exchange where one friend sent a link to several of us--
I responded that yeah, I'd already seen it (it was the twelve year-old kid from the next round of auditions for Britain's Got Talent) and she responded "Yes, sweetie, we know you know everything and have seen everything first. You win. *g*"
Just kind of startled me. I know she's stressed and under a deadline, but I got the distinct impression she was slapping me down for having more time than her at the moment.
I'm probably just hormonal.

Um, Barb? I don't think you were the obnoxious one in that exchange.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
...er, no, she was being a snippy cow.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
...er, no, she was being a snippy cow.
Yeppers.

All is well that ends in pizza.
What they said.
The *g* does not excuse her statement to you. Definitely lashing out.

WHAT THE SMART GIRLS SAID. And who is it? Now I want to do some smacking.

Random thought for the moment:
Is "never" a contraction of "not ever"?

Thanks guys-- I mean, I know I was overreacting and had nothing to feel apologetic for, but like I said it startled me. And when I emailed back, "Uh... sorry?" she responded,
Sorry I was just LOL because every email you send starts with “Yes, I already saw that.” So I give up! You are the goddess of internet/pop culture! Will stop sharing boring, old stories. *g* Am lame, behind the times girl. Sigh.
Which, really? Didn't make me feel any better because again, I felt like she pointing out that I have all this free time she doesn't have and while she may not have meant it, it had the net result of making me feel like a futless loser.

About 1000 years ago, it was: [link]
