msbelle: know what? I am ok with asshole predators thinking I am a Bitch. I'd rather they get to that realization sooner rather than later.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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

People are hot in Natter (well, we're hot everywhere . . .)
Jesse: I'm air-conditioning my bedroom, obviously, but should I have the living room fan blow the cool air in or the hot air out?
billytea: Do both, and have them meet at the window ledge in THUNDERDOME.
Connie Neil: Aussies.
billytea: I would like to report that the rumour that were Under the Dome an Australian show, we would have named it Under the Thunder is baseless. We would have typed it in all caps.
ita: Their entire ecology hinges on "2 organisms enter, 1 organism...is still trapped on this fucking stupidly large island after it killed everything else..."
billytea: Clearly we need some more work on the slogan from the event organismer.

DebetEsse: So, I have a question. If, hypothetically, one were in a foreign country, and one were tired and hungry and didn't speak the language. And one had gone to the NSAID aisle, but had managed to purchase the equivalent of suppository baby Tylenol, rather than, you know, adult meds to be taken orally, is there a way to salvage the situation? Hypothetically. For a friend.
billytea: One might go in search of an extremely understanding baby.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
After a possibly record-setting sextuple-post, Sean made me laugh, in Bitches:
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
DAMMIT! Triple-post again!!!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
erikaj makes me snerk:
Love that! Purring is so cool...I used to pretend to be a kitty a lot as a kid and it was always disappointing that I couldn't do it.(In a different way than being disappointed that I couldn't cause pain with a wave of my hand like Lord Vader, of course.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Teppy, making me snort, in Bitches:
But if you write what you know, my book would end up being Geeks With Rope! or Flogged By A Dork.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
In BaBB:
Jesse - Just got a fatal error hitting Read New.
le nubian - and yet, you are still posting?
Jesse - I refreshed and it got better! Fatal's not what it used to be.

Natter--
msbelle - So a newish fun thing with my fibro -everytime a weather front moves through - I get massive headache and my whole body hurts. So I slept from 11pm last night to 3pm !!!! ANd my head still hurts. I should probably take an advil?
-t - Speaking as someone who habitually forgets about painkillers, yeah take an Advil.
ita ! - GET IN FRONT OF THE PAIN.
Connie Neil - Yeah, that just means I'll have tire tracks on my back when it runs me down.

So if Joe Biden and Ben Bernanke want to man up and do a replay of Burr/Hamilton, then they should take care of business in Florida.
A Burr/Hamilton joke is ALWAYS quotable.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In Natter:
-t: My sister majored in, hm, Contemplative Movement? Something like that. And she kind of uses it, whatever it was called.
flea: Contemplative Movement? Pardon my releasing my inner 12-year-old but that sounds like deep thoughts while taking a shit.
-t: That may have been part of the curriculum!
