Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

P-C, 9:45. Is that too late? That would be godly of you. In return, I'll...I don't even know. Let me call your grandma and I'll wear the damn necklace.

Connie, it's been sold for parts, all official-like. We got a whopping $150 for it. I'm certain the chop shop that bought it will make that back five or ten times over, but whatever.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

but if you read the article it really paints people with a nasty brush.

So much. That really was my takeaway - people are awful and creepy all around.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

P-C, 9:45. Is that too late?

Of course not. Text me Hec's number, and I'll be at the station at 9:45.

Oh, his phone is out of juice, isn't it? Or almost? Maybe I can intercept him on his way to the shuttle.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, that.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Neighbohood bars aren't always ok either. I am thinking specifically about a friend who worked at Sherlock's who had her table ask her what time she got off after leaving her a really good tip.

But no place with people is always OK.

Well no. But I do think female bar and club workers are-more than outside of it-treated like whores.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

But no place with people is always OK.

People! Hmmph.

I'm sure that's true. I'm just saying -- plenty of people I know have been sexually assaulted as bar patrons.

I think this falls more under the People Are Creepy than anything else. And that some of those Creepy People are men who will hit on anything and anyplace, oblivious to the fact that associating it with a transactional experience is uncool.
