Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

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

I've met her a couple times too. She's cool, very nice.

“Not dead yet!”

Permanent Record? Or something like that.

Oh, I LOVE that movie! Even had the soundtrack on cassette.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Gremlins 2 is a much better movie than Gremlins. "We're advising our clients to put all their money in shotguns and canned goods."

Totally agree with this. I enjoyed Gremlins just fine, but the first time I saw Gremlins 2 on cable, I nearly hurt myself laughing.

"Tonight, we present Casablanca, now in color and with a happier ending!"

Huh, I've never heard of River's Edge, but it sounds intriguing.

You will be shocked and awed because Keanu once could act vocally as well as physically. It's the best of his early performances.

Cool, I've met Charlie Jane Anders several times. She's a transgendered male

She's a transwoman, or he's a transman? Your wording was confusing. From context, I'm gathering she's a transwoman?

I do love Gremlins 2 more, but I like the Ghostbusters/Gremlins Saturday night lineup. Especially since Gremlins starts at midnight.

Oh man, and Robocop & Buckaroo Bonzai are on the same night, too. Peter Weller double-feature!

My friend Marcia may know who programmed their schedule. If she does I'm going to have to send them flowers or something. If I have any money left after going to the movies every weekend.

Yeah, male-to-female. So I guess she is a male who transgendered rather than a female who is transgendered?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I was wondering the same thing.

She's a transwoman, is how I'd say it, probably. Your transperson may vary.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I am also confused. We have a friend who is named E. She was once named [male name I don't know]. Is E transgendered from male to female?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm pretty sure if you use the term "transgendered" or "transsexual," then the construction is (for example) " transgender/transsexual MtF (male-to-female)," for someone born a man who transitioned to female.

With "trans man" and "trans woman" (and many people who are trans prefer that it be 2 words, but not all feel that way), then "trans woman" means someone who was born a male and transitioned to female; "trans man" is someone born a woman who transitioned to male.

t edit But like Plei said, it's easier and more sense-making to use the "trans man/woman" construction rather than "transgendered female-to-male/male-to-female."

your friendly neighborhood transgender knowitall

t edit again It's "trans woman" for someone born a man who transitioned to female (and vice versa) because it identifies their *current* gender.

t edit one more damn time Identifying someone as their current gender is always the way to go. So you do NOT say "she is a male who is transgendered." Because *she* isn't a male, even if she was born one.
