F Kidman (preferably as Satine), C Campell (with some force), M Portman. No hesitation there for me. Even it it's a little weird that Natalie P looks a bit like my sister.
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I had to confirm that it is the Christmas album from Death Row Records (Suge Knight, Snoop Dogg, etc.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
F Kidman if she's a redhead, C Campbell, M Portman. She seems sensible for a kid.

Sooo, one of my co-workers just informed me that some friends of his were stopping by to visit, and he wanted to show me off to them. Like a zoo exhibit, I guess? "And here is the Frilled Goth Editor, in her unnatural habitat ..."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If only you could rapidly change into conventional office wear for times such as these....

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
For some reason, the zoo reference makes me want to ask if you can fling poo at them, like monkeys will.
Not that I think you would ever do that, but still.

Except for the Star Wars prequels, she's picked some pretty good movies. And lots of people fell into the Star Wars trap. Plus, her gangsta rap thing on SNL was hilarious.

Hmm. I'm trying to come up with a more favorable interpretation, and failing. Maybe "look how cool and diverse my department is?"

Ew.
It turns out that co-worker's friends were all gamer geeks, and when co-worker mentioned that I worked at WotC, all went "Ooooooh".
Still, I'm a little unnerved by the "show you off to them" phrasing. It just seemed like a kind of odd comment. But then, this is the same co-worker who said he had been thinking of asking me if I dressed this way because I lost a bet. So, not much with the social skills.

Well "show off" does imply pride and positivity, even as it objectifies. Little things.
Still here. My sister must be having a hell of a time with customs and immigration. She texted me that she'd landed 50 minutes ago.

Ah-ha! That's why it pings me. Plus the vague sense of ownership implied in "show off".
