And Kaylee, what the hell's goin' on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

[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.

Our wings are not tired.

{{Jess & E}} I think it probably comes under either the pick your battles clause or the agree to disagree clause. Maybe might be covered under the can't teach an old dog new tricks part of the contract.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Jess, I use a formula for that kind of thing based on 1) how much I care and 2) how often does it happen.

So Jon leaving his belts everywhere is high for 2 but low for 1= no fight.

Also sweetiehead just called to let me know there's a pro choice rally at the bar!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I also got spam from Teppy. I feel included!

I was feeling left out of the Teppy spam, but just checked my secondary email account and had email from her. Now I feel all included and shit.

Hey, I got Teppy spam too, in my spam filter! I feel all validated. And if that had popped up in my inbox I'd have opened it quite quickly, because, hey, Teppy!

You guys are awesome! I'm amused at how many of the e-mails/comments I've gotten have been along the lines of, "Well, I knew it wasn't REALLY from you, because the punctuation was all fucked up!" My friends in IT, however, have been Sam-the-Eagle serious in telling me to scan my computer for malware, etc.

And for anyone who cares, I used to use a first name underscore last name @yahoo email address, but a couple of years ago started using that as my "spam" account. I check it occasionally. My "real" account is first name DOT last name@yahoo now.

I have noted this for future spamming.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Jessica, it occurs to me to wonder whether he truly doesn't get that there's a difference or if he prefers the good stuff and is trying to pass off the bagged stuff to you (I've spent a lot of time dealing with passive-aggressive nonsense, so this could be just me).

Trust my rage

Jess, I get it. I bought a bunch of cheese and bacon to top all my frozen dinners. So this morning i saw Joe eating bacon and i was all "that's not MY bacon, is it?" which I then realized me sound like an ass but he was interfering with my plan.

Our wings are not tired.

I just discovered that javachik used to work with my boss. HA! Oh, Buffistas. So, yeah, java, all those nice things I've been posting about my boss? That's her.

She is cool, a fave of mine from the old daze.

Oh I do not do well when someone fucks with THE PLAN.

Trust my rage

Yeah. I can be a bit OTT about it. I'm trying to relax a bit although it does have advantages.

Hah! My two roommates used to have the opposite problem. B would eat the last of V's plastic cheese or something, and then replace it with some fancy sharp cheddar, which left V both without the stuff she wanted and insulted to boot.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

So Jon leaving his belts everywhere is high for 2 but low for 1= no fight.

Ha! Why do they do that? How is possible for him to have that many belts and why does he take them off at such random spots? I buy guy pants so I have a bunch of belts but I take them off standing at my nightstand, and they all go in the drawer. Why is this hard? Hee, apparently this is higher on my 1 for me than you.

The SO does replace my salad greens, but he does a good job with which ones because he's equally green-aware. The only thing is he has no sense of volume, or how quickly fresh produce goes bad. So I am always tossing out his fresh stuff, which is aggravating to the both of us. But if you want to avoid the problem, eat your veggies, dude!
