I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

for the purpose of nothing. no scam, no con, no murderous plot.

This is the thing that keeps eating at me, the purposelessness. As if, somehow, getting lied to for some particular intent would be better. Which, honestly, I don't think it would be. More understandable, though. I'm trying to chalk it up to goose-juggling.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Well, obviously he misses you, Miss The Nicest.

I'm still pissed about that crappy New Year's Eve. He OWES me an angst-free champagne holiday.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Oddly, the mieskie stuff also went down at the end of December.

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

Oh dear.

Two Men Face Court for Goat Sex, Owner Demands Wedding

(AFP from NewsCore) - Two young men accused of having sex with a goat in central Mozambique were facing criminal charges, and the goat's owner was demanding they make traditional wedding arrangements, state media said Friday.

...

The owner was demanding the young men pay him damages and initiate a traditional wedding ceremony by paying "lobolo," a dowry, a family member told Radio Mozambique.

Also? how bored to you have to be, or how disappointed in who you are as a person to make up multiple different characters for the purpose of nothing. no scam, no con, no murderous plot.

This is what I wonder about. I am from a family who never think twice about sacrificing the truth for the sake of a good story, but to create whole other persona--personas is a whole other thing. I mean Gus was around for a while...and as I recall, developed a rapport with a lot of people here quite quickly. The stories weren't really necessary.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

I always thought "chicken hawk" referred to to men who went after underage boys. Which deserves a denigrating term. If your make passes at people above the age of consent, then I don't think there is any reason to use a special term. Well, if Jane Fonda makes a pass at an 18 year old, I think the term might be for the 18 year old might be "lucky".
