Simon ,'Objects In Space'
[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.
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.
Possibly the "mad scene" from Lucia?
I don't remember the mad scene being that strident, just quietly horrifying. Another must re-listen!
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.
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.
Was that a Calvin and Hobbes comic where a kid (Calvin?) was impressed that there was a classical music song with real cannons?
They're living with me, they get their toilet flushed and their dishes washed as often as mine.
I like this philosophy!
Thanks so much for all the great data. I'm noodling a theory about environment and health, where pets are concerned, and it is really helpful to get a sense of pet people's habits.
Sparky, the table climbing is part instinct (food!Iwillfindit) but it's mostly a boundary issue. The table, the baby, the food...they all belong to you. This is a concept, about which, the Sass is currently confused. Try going back to 'nothing in life is free' by making her wait for her food and other rewards. ESPECIALLY, remind her to ask for permission to get on any furniture.
It's a pain, because you have to be patient in a time when patience is at a premium...but it really is the only way.

To be filed in the weird dreams file:
Dreamt about Patsy Cline's death and how her life story was turned into a comic book movie, complete with Don Cheadle as the pilot who survived and came back as "Phoenix".
That is the very last time I drink McDonald's orange drink before bed.
Paging Hil - recs on ankle braces? amyth has a torn ligament and probably needs surgery but won't be able to get it for a while.

I'll drink from the same water glass for days in a row. But I freely accept that I'm odd.
PMSing and NEED CHOCOLATE OMG.
Aims, I dreamt last night that someone gave me a rescued kitten to nurse, and I did. Apparently that Big Cats video inspired some maternal feelings.

Yeah, I don't think it's that odd. Also, now feels really guilty about how I take care of my animals! But...they've lived a pretty long time and seem happy! and sheesh.
