Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

[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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Also, I don't believe for a second that some schmoe pre-drives the route before 6 a.m.

If he does, well, I understand Michigan city goverments are looking for belt-tightening measures. That seems like a good candidate right there.

Right? If they're under such budget constraints that they can only pick up recycling every other week, I reckon they'd save money if they eliminated the pre-drive-the-route guy.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Okay, that's INSANE. Why does it matter when the fuck the bins are set out, as long as they're there when the recycling truck arrives at your curb?

Seriously. I can't even figure out how a bin is "late" if it's sitting at the curb when the truck arrives. "Late" would be putting your bin out when you notice that all the other bins on your neighbors' curbs are already empty.

WHAT I'M SAYIN'!! My sistah!

(Also, I don't believe for a second that some schmoe pre-drives the route before 6 a.m.)

I believe there's a schmoe who *says* he pre-drove the route before 6 a.m. "No, yeah, it's all good. Yeah. What? No, I wasn't sleeping, I, uh...well, I'm drunk. Yeah. Cool, talk to you later."

If he does, well, I understand Michigan city goverments are looking for belt-tightening measures. That seems like a good candidate right there.

So wise.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

One of the civilized things about San Francisco is you don't have to race your trashcan to the curb at the asscrack of dawn.

We have bins for garbage, recycling and plant trimmings. You put it in whenever. The trucks come around twice a week and they've all got big jangling collections of keys that get them into the lower part of the apartment building to pull out the bins.

Its like having house elves.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My first reaction to this was, "Yeah, you can just roll it down the hill...."

One way or another, it's probably ending up in the bay.

Nuh uh! Nanobots turn it into fragrant fluff and deliver it to the Build-A-Bear franchise.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Dude. If they had enough time to lean down and put a freaking orange sticker on the bins, they couldda picked up the freaking bins and emptied them.

On the farm we divided up our trash thusly:

  • Stuff that we can burn.
  • Stuff we can feed to the cats.
  • Stuff we can add to the cow manure to be spread over the fields.
  • Stuff we haul to the junkyard.

Still, I was happy to see that my parents now recycle.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

But then what do the cats eat?
