[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Tangential question: I know that Amych once made her own corset, and that other people here have perhaps done the same, or are crafty/sewing types. Can anyone suggest me a good, clear online site from which to get instructions on How To Make A Proper Corset? Preferably with illustrations?

Thank you.

Always Anti-fascist!

Oh, and I'm massively too germ-phobic to actually drink bathwater in real life. I talk about it a lot as a measure of devotion, but the truth is, I don't drink out of people's glasses. Ever. Probably not Keith's either although I'd feel bad about it. Preppie cooties are still cooties, though.

I can suggest patterns to you, but actual sites with instructions? I still haven't found one.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

"You guys have stay here and I'm gonna live in a different house and we're never gonna play games and you're never gonna be my parents anymore and daddy can you get me some fresh milk, please?"

BWAHAHAHAHAHA. She really is five, isn't she?

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

We took "her" phone away because she was throwing it around and declaring the worst phone ever. She got upset we took it and ran to her room, declaring hurt feelings and worst parents and she's never ever going to have a phone. And then she yelled, "My phone number is nothing!! Zero! NOTHING!"

This seems to be a correct assessment of having a phone that doesn't even have a data plan.

“Not dead yet!”

My giftee from Barb and Jilli got here today!!

Oh my, do I LOVE the pictures of Empress and her urn. And now I'm wishing I HAD packed it with chocolate. (What? The Valentine's candies were still on sale!)

I don't know what made me pick it up, since I'm not much a fan of yellow and when I saw it on the shelf, the design was facing away from me, but I'm so glad I did, because when I turned it around and saw the image, I made all sorts of squeeful noises and found Jilli and showed it to her and asked, "Should we?" to which she responded with a resounding, "Oh, we MUST!"

So we did.

And I'm sooooo glad!
