Ginger, in Natter:
Here is an example of why I have Too Much Stuff.
I got a newer style plunger to deal with a clog that the traditional style failed at. I started to throw out the old one, but then I thought, "Suppose I want to make a Dalek?"
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
In Natter:
Shrift:
Brontosaurus Is Officially A Dinosaur Again
-t:
Whoa. What a roller coaster!
Tommyrot:
This made me think of Fred Flintstone sliding down the neck and back of his brontosaurus at the end of his workday. Which I then discovered was the graphic for shrift's FB post.
-t :
You are clearly in tune with the zeitgeist.
tommyrot:
I am. I have zeitgeist coming out of my bottom.
-t:
There may be a treatment for that.
tommyrot:
I think I'll do a Kickstarter for adult zeitgeist diapers.

Families sometimes seem like they should be run like Survivor--everybody meets on a regular basis and votes to see who stays on the island.

Past self is always a moron. All past selves are morons. Present self at least has the capacity to moron less.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Sometimes, content would subtract, rather than add. From Natter:
shrift: The internet eventually decided to come back so I could watch hockey. I totally am not doing work, though. Not in OT!
shrift (10 minutes later): THEY LOST THE PUCK IN THE GOALIE'S PANTS?!?!?!
DavidS: Okay, that's the greatest random sports update ever.
MatttheBruinsFan: I am now regretting my inattention to the hockey games tonight.

Dana: I've been in my part of fandom so long, I almost have a hard time understanding why people get worked up over canon they don't like. I mean, of course I understand it, but there's also a part of me that's like "Canon isn't the boss of us!"

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Always Anti-fascist!
Given how much history is in that, I think the context would be as useful as, like, Wire spoilers. "Um, remember that guy from twenty episodes ago? He's back. Also, the Man's still gonna crush you. Have a nice day!" Sorry, newbies.

Religious discussion in Natter--
Tom Scola: It looks like it's a Calvinist thing. If everything is already predetermined, once you're saved, you can't be unsaved. Never mind all of the backsliding that goes on in the fundamentalist community.
Steph L.: Oh, right! I got the Calvinist stuff backwards.
It's been a long time since I've even thought about that stuff. At least I remembered "Calvinist."
Toddson: Calvin has a lot to answer for. As does Hobbes.
