Yay ita, and a thousand gold stars to that attending. But really, dammit, that kind of treatment ought to be the rule and not the exception.
Dawn: I thought you were adequate. Giles: And the accolades keep pouring in. I'd best take my leave before my head swells any larger. Good night.

Natter 64: Yes, we still need you
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I didn't know you could get that high to knee somebody in the face.
Clearly, your life has suffered from a deficiency of Muay Thai fights.

All of you Point-deprived people should find a way to watch it RIGHT NOW. It is awesomecakes.
I was super-productive this morning and am now paying for it. Our neighbor invited us ice skating and rather than risk the rink not having skates in D's size we all biked over to the shoe store beforehand and I bought him a nice pair for $20. (This place also lets you trade skates in, which is why they always have a good selection of used kids sizes. When I have more time I'll probably go there for skates for me too.) Then we biked to the rink and skated around for about an hour, then we had hot cider and lunch and then biked home. I am freaking WIPED.
Fortunately my saintly husband is going to the tamale stand to get me a molé tamale, which should restore my strength quite tastily.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I love that attending too. ::sigh::
Hec, Jesse's plan has women competing against men in their weight classes. Also it doesn't consider sports in which weight isn't the key differentiator.

This reminded me that I'm re-reading the Skulduggery Pleasant books, and the character names, though sometimes corny, tend to amuse the hell out of me.
Bad guy names: Gruesome Krav, Murder Rose, Billy-Ray Sanguine, Mevolent (no last name, that's how bad he his), Nefarian Serpine.
Good guy names: Ghastly Bespoke (he's a tailor [get it?] with scars all over his face), Mr. Bliss, Skulduggery Pleasant.
Not-sure-who's-side-she's-on name: China Sorrows.
Every time I read "Gruesome Krav," it made me giggle.
