This keeps bugging me:
My biggest issue is that they're continuing to make the victim a victim, when she clearly no longer wants to be seen as such.
No, HE is. His actions kept her in the limelight. He's at fault.
Mal: I call you back? Wash: No, Mal. You didn't. Zoe: I take full responsibility, cap.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Just to be clear here, it wasn't consensual sex that people are calling rape because of the statute. He forced vaginal and anal sex on a 13 year old who was saying no, who he had given champagne and qaaludes. I don't think a western culture in the 20th century finds forcible sex of an adolescent "ok."
I mean, seriously.

Is there a 64-bit XP? I thought there was only Vista in 64-bit.

You can get that by right-clicking on My Computer, but I can't see where it says 32-bit or 64-bit.
Really? Mine says "System type: 32-bit operating system."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Really? Mine says "System type: 32-bit operating system."
All it says is Microsoft Windows XP Professional, Version 2002, Service Pack 3.

There is a 64-bit XP, but you have to purchase it separately and install it yourself. I don't think any computers shipped with it by default.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Ack. The job wants to call to make me an offer.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
No Ack! This is a good thing!

The "ack" is the part where I have to see what the salary is. And might have to argue about it.

I mean, unless it's the "you can't refuse" kind of offer. But I'd be surprised if it were.
