[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.
Capris are inherently flawed. I don't understand why otherwise right-minded people don't understand that.
Aims, you'd be pissed. No one out of 52+ people has signed up for the holiday pot luck this Friday. Of course, that includes me. I do think Monday's a bit late to be sending out those invites, though, but still. We're all very slack.

It would be curried. I wonder if the Indian staff would turn their noses up at Caribbean curry.
I've only had Oaxacan BBQ goat. It's pretty good. It's been way too long. I also need to try the goat tacos near Kat.
My biggest grammar/spelling STOP DOING THAT is currently loose/lose. I have no idea why it gets me so riled up. Worse than their/there/they're by a country mile.

...people who abuse apostrophe-s. Grrrrrrr.
Loose/lose also bugs me out of all proportion. And it could just be a typo, so really I should learn to overlook.
