I'm the only one with curly hair, and the only one with red hair. My mother would have gotten a lot of funny looks except that I'm also the only one to have blue eyes like my father.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Damn, the internet is a small world.
It's supercute; I'm totally geeking out on that site.
Rich people live in the imaginary box in my living room. I think someone who buys a $90 bottle of wine IRL is fabulously wealthy. I just can't translate wealth into actuality. It's...the stuff of fiction to me.
My bf's ex was from a comfortable family, and she ran him into the ground with Coach bags, $500 shoes, etc. on a not-comfortable salary. I didn't really get it until a months or so ago. And he keeps just being...stunned by my low-maintenence expectations. He asked me what I wanted for Xmas, and about cried when I said an iTouch case.
Granted, would I love to go crazy with money?! HELL, YEAH! But it's stupid.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have a bright purple sweatshirt with a snowman on it that I wear as if it was holiday-themed clothing. It's garish and festive, but celebrating...the holiday of Wintertime? I don't know. I also have Christmas socks (mostly because they have penguins) and Halloween socks. Probably Christmas pins and earrings, but I would have to go look to be sure, I don't make a point of wearing them. A blue snowflake necklace that DH got me because it looked vaguely Hannukah-appropriate.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, I'm heading out to vote, do one last batch of phone banking, and then to the victory (?) party....

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I am so cold that I could weep. My office was warm earlier today. Or warmish. Whither thou goest, heat?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Whither thou goest, heat?
a) South.
b) Away from the socks.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I like something like this for an engagement ring, though with a different color stone. [link] This is not my style, but it's lovely. [link]

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Scrappy, I love channel-set rings.
Also, I love diamonds. I know it's not cool, but I do. They have such a great flash and sparkle, and I'm hooked. Although I love pretty much most gemstones, except yellow ones. Er, I guess that means I love white diamonds. Not yellow diamonds. They look like pee.
t edit As soon as I hit "Post," I realized that someone with a yellow gemstone ring is going to come along and give me hell for dissing their shiny.

Because books.

I was just thinking I don't love them either, especially set in or against silver.

I don't think it's not cool. I don't think that it's cool to make men feel like they have to spend money that they don't have or want to spend to buy them, though.
