Good luck with the ducks, Steph. I hope they stop nibbling.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

[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 should clarify my post about EJO on the Muppet Show wasn't a direct response to Steph's post, but I think it still stands.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Damn Tep, that's a lot of ducks.

Always Anti-fascist!
Tep, sounds like I'm not the only one who should buy a water-pic. D'oh...stupid Irish gums!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
The more I hear about The Boy, the more convinced I am that he is ONE OF US.
It went like this:
"I shouldn't use an adapter on this plug, but maybe just for tonight..."
"What the hell? This outlet is UPSIDE-DOWN!"
[Me: "You've owned this house for 8 years and are just now discovering that?"]
[sounds of a screwdriver taking off the outlet faceplate]
"IT'S NOT EVEN GROUNDED!!!"
[Me: "I could die every time I use the vibrator? That is NOT COOL."]
[disgusted exit from bedroom, muttering about outlets and grounding]
[attic sounds]
[return, with a 3-pronged outlet thingie]
"WHO DOESN'T GROUND AN OUTLET?!?"
"Oh, yeah, check THIS outlet out NOW!"
[At this point I'm trying to sleep, so I mutter encouraging noises.]
And then eventually the a/c got plugged in and the room was cool. I was sad to discover the a/c did not have a beer tap on it.

I think that would make my existential angst MUCH better!

Damn Tep, that's a lot of ducks.
It sure is. Congratulations on triumphing over them! I hope you can have a restful evening with The Boy and the sushi and the dogs and nothing whatsoever going wrong.

Damn Tep, that's a lot of ducks.
Right? They would all be annoying and worthy of venting and angst under normal circumstances, but when they happen (all of them, all at once) right after a death, that's just NOT FAIR PLAY.

What? Take it back!

INORITE? Who lends a friend an a/c in their time of 90+ degree need and doesn't lend them one with a beer tap in it?!? Not on, man. Not on.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Sometimes I forget that he can make any simple project into a 22-episode DIY Network program. He actually REWIRED AN OUTLET at midnight.
I see you've met my husband.
