In Fan Fiction:
P.M. Marc
Can someone remind me WHY WRITING? WHY THIS HOBBY?
Calli
To get them out of your head and onto the page/screen? (The page looked at the screen longingly. Could anyone so bright and beautiful ever return their feelings? 100,452 words, UST, coffee shop AU.)
Yet again, it is Zen, in the Natter, with the funny.
-t: Thunder and hail. Does that combo have a name?
Zenkitty: Thor's icy balls
In Natter, context be damned:
Steph: I can't even make a rage cheese plate, because all we have is colby-jack and American.
In Natter, Teppy answering a question about a quote from a children's book:
Steph: The Little Red Hen (or, as you may like to call it after you read it, Fuck Alla Y'all): [link].
In F2F thread, Matt The Bruins Fan gives opinion on mansion idea with 4+ sharing a bedroom:
I am only OK with 4+ to a room if there's something very scary outside the room trying to get in.
In Natter:
DavidS: Just dropped Matilda off at her second camp of the summer. First she did a week and a half of Camp Tofu.
Steph: What does Camp Tofu entail? (I hope the answer involves really good pad thai.)
Gud: I assume you go out into nature and absorb the flavors.
In Natter: who needs stinking context?
Matt the Bruins Fan: When dealing with the TSA and boarding agents at an airport I can certainly understand the urge to murder people in grisly fashion before taking off in flight, so perhaps the metaphor is still an apt one?
Jesse, dare I say it, trumping my remark in Natter:
Dana: OMG, I'm trying to be snarky on FB and almost used "trump" as a verb (in its normal sense), and then realized I needed to find another word to use.
I went with "one-up."
Me: Stupid orange-headed fool taking perfectly good words away from us. I see outraged bridge clubs muttering dolefully into their tea cakes.
Jesse: Or passive-aggressively poking at each other. "Three NO TRUMP!!!!"

You know what's awesome in an overwhelming way? Mountain Dew with lemon vodka. It tastes like a melted alcoholic lollipop. Super refreshing, as your eyes roll back.
Dana in Natter, definitely not being sarcastic:
Woohoo, chaos at work. This is definitely the best thing that ever happened to me since I got my sarcasm module removed.
