BCD is just a travesty.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ahhh, that's what the clock is in. More or less. I didn't know there was a term for it.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Hi all, back from work, where this week they have me starting at 9am, two hours earlier than usual. Next week instead of my normal 11 Am start that I enjoyed for three years until two weeks ago, we have the first meeting of what will be an every-other-week help desk meeting...At 6am. (Of course, that means I have to get up at 4, to get on the road by 5 am.)
In other work-related hijinks...
They are talking about having an "incentive" at work to make sure we send out only equipment that is positively needed at a site. If the part that comes back tests OK, they will deduct the shipping form our bonuses.
Incentive. George Orwell is alive.

BCD is just a travesty.
Oh, yeah. I'm not really sure why they ever taught it to us. Maybe it was supposed to be a gateway to hex or something? I dunno. Pretty useless, except on tests.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
We could try discussing base 5 instead.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I think the semi-colon deserves equal time. Teppy?
I got a form from the post office to come pick up a letter that needs $.37 postage. WTF? On the plus side, I now have an excuse to drive to work again, and maybe I can get my Secret Santa box while I'm there.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
All I know is that base 8 is just like base 10 if you're missing two fingers.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I think the semi-colon deserves equal time. Teppy?
The semi-colon is the most elegant of the punctuation marks. It is severely misunderstood, misused, and under-used; as such, I try to work it into as many sentences as possible.
(See what I did there?)

“Not dead yet!”

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.
Shanie had to get tested again for his jaundice today and now I'm worried he may end up back at the hospital for fluids and light therapy. Please send the ~ma that his number goes down today. Not serious, but enough to make his Mama teary.
~ma for the little guy. I thought he looked the same shade as my oldest nephew's baby pictures. Incidentally, oldest nephew is 25, happy and healthy.
