We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

[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.

Compassionately intolerant

Was there a Fellini convention in the 'hood?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I just saw a family walking down the street -- the son was wearing a Boy Scout uniform, and the father was wearing a hat with a giant plastic ear of corn. A few minutes later, two Model T Fords (or something similar -- old-timey cars like that) drove by.

Our wings are not tired.

Heh. Nope. Locally goats are used for pre-fire season trimming and pruning. It's awesome! My hood is surrounded by hills on all sides, and right now they're brimming with goats! I really really really want to steal one.

Always Anti-fascist!

I sometimes feel weird about eye contact because well, crazy people think I'm fascinating.Even if it's not a full-on wacko encounter(I've had a lot fewer of those in recent years) like Seska, I have a hard time dealing with people watching me as much as they do.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Happy birthday, vw!!!!

This eye contact stuff is interesting. I always look people in the eye because I think it's rude not to. Like I'm not giving them my attention and the respect they deserve. It's fascinating that some of y'all find that intrusive. I think people are being shifty or lying to me if they don't look me in the eye.

Peoples are different, yo.

And the sleaziest person I ever met always made sure to look sincerely into people's eyes.

It's a weird world.

Happy Birthday, VW!

I'm sure I make SOME eye contact, but now y'all have me so confused I have no idea! I just know in prolonged conversation with a friend, I always feel like I end up watching lips more than eyes, and suspect it's supposed to be the other way around, and wonder if I'm actually deaf.
