StuntHusband: Very, very me. So much so that I asked my mom (the psych-nurse) if I were anywhere on the Asperger's spectrum.
She said no, they'd had me evaluated as a child, and I was just a clueless asshole sometimes. (THANKS MOM)
Inara: You don't have to die alone. Mal: Everybody dies alone.

Now we just need someone to translate the word "asshook" into Sindarin and we'll have come full circle.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Oh bitches, my bitches. Follow-on conversation from the above:

StuntHusband -
...what makes you think I haven't *tried*?
(un?)fortunately, the Professor left nothing anatomically-appropriate. Lots of "hands" and "eyes" and "heads" and "feet" and "hair" and "hearts" and such. No asses.
It's like old Trek - no bathrooms. They didn't NEED them? Elves don't s(h)it?
-t -
No. Lembas melts on their tongues and any minimal waste products are expelled through the skin as an ethereal glow.
StuntHusband -
In Sindarin, "behind-hook" would be "adelgamp".
There is no lexicon of the Finnish-like Quenya. TSOL.
Now look what you made me do?! You made me TRANSLATE ASSHOOK.
Actually, that's kinda cool. *buffs fingernails on hoodie*

::must not filk adelgamp to the tune of Eidelweiss::
tommyrot -
I'm not sure I'd take such an extreme stance....
Gudanov -
If elves don't defecate then they really don't have any concept of asshooks so why do they need a word for them? Of course that begs the question, what do they do to tether the head back?
Frankenbuddha -
Product.
tommyrot -
Do elves have assholes?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

billytea: If they're on their deathbed because of a ski-jumping accident, they might regret it a little.

Toddson: Rule for the future: in order to be president, you must be able to speak coherent English?
tommyrot: And you don't have red glowy eyes or other body parts.
-t - : I say as long as your red glowy body parts are made in America, you can be President.
Jessica: I think that rules out most Cylons - almost all of them are Canadian.
Gudanov: Which explains a lot. They look like us and they have a plan.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
