[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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Calli, I love it and I think I'm gonna buy it. Thanks!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

My cats prefer outside to their litter boxes, which has allowd me to get very lazy about scooping and cleaning the boxes. I got an automagical self-scooping box that is pretty sweet and the cats don't seem to mind, and an old-fashioned plastic box that they occasionally use. I remember to scoop that one out a couple times a week, probably. I use plastic liners under the litter, and that seems to keep actual scrubbing of the box from being necessary.

One of these days I will set up the pet waste specific worm bin and the whole system will change, but I'm not there yet.

My cats don't seem to like the plastic box liners. They scratch right through them. Maybe they like them too much.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Interview~ma, Hil.

I'm glad Kate is ok.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

For those of you with noisy neighbors - try opera. I understand that "Ride of the Valkyries" at top volume will scare off just about anyone.

Nah, go for the Queen of the Night's aria from The Magic Flute. The aria that eats sopranos should be sufficiently intimidating.

Speaking of which, I must find that and listen to it again.

Possibly the "mad scene" from Lucia?

I don't remember the mad scene being that strident, just quietly horrifying. Another must re-listen!

“Not dead yet!”

I'm not sufficiently familiar with Opera, but for me, blasting Holst's "Mars" at top volume is pretty terrifying to those unfamiliar with it.

Coding and Sleeping

Nothing is more intimidating than a live performance of the 1812 Overture, though the direction in which the cannons are pointing is an important variable.
