You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

[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.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

We could talk about how cute our pets are. Today I wore my cat's favorite socks when I came down to visit her at my parents' house. Ordinarily when I wear these (thick, fuzzy) socks she goes crazy attacking them. Today she gave them a few swipes and then walked away suddenly as if she just remembered she's still mad at me

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I have no pets. Just a baby. Won't somebody think of the children?

Feed the children to the pets?

Just got home from dinner party. Thought it'd be dinner at sushi place for a few hours. It turned into dinner, desert, let's all go back to my place and have drinks. And then it was 1:30. Cool. Great conversations. Work. Life. and everything in between. Found out one of the wives works on the tv show CHUCK. Pretty cool.

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

IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. It was just a bad dream.

Laga, have you found a new home for your kitty after she has to leave your parents'?

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.

Gah! This thread is not breakfast friendly.

So, at a wedding, when the groom chooses a female attendant, which is a better way to refer to her: groomsmaid or groomswoman? Just curious as it came up in another forum, and I can't make up my mind which I like better.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Our wedding had mixed attendants, and IIRC we just called them attendants (except for the matron of honor and best man, and I think we may have called my brother's husband, the only boy on the bride's side, the stud).

t /not helpful

But of the choices on offer, I'd prefer groomswoman, as woman is a nice neutral descriptor for a grown-up female person, whereas maid is a little less neutral and has more ick potential.

I was my sister's Best Woman. Which was nice. She also had bridesmaids, though.

Back in the late '80s, I had a coworker who had her best (male) friend as her main attendee; they called him the Dude of Honor.
