I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Uh, it's not uber-geeky to find this funny, right?

Well, you kind of need to have read The Dark Knight Returns to really get it...

As well as the horror show of Miller's All-Star Batman and Robin.

Oh god, I can never have a normal potential beau over to my house. I have a Wolverine tree ornament on the same bookshelf as my Scottie Pippen tree ornament and my Death, Daniel, Morpheus, and Goldie stuffed toys.

I'm going to be alone FOREVER.

I doubt it. If *I* managed to trick someone into my clutches find someone despite my Farscape action figures, Buffy and Angel obsession, mountains of comics, and freakish love of the semi-colon, then ANYONE can.

t edit Oh, and I have a VERTEBRA in a shadow box hanging on the wall. I guess that's less geeky, more creepy. But still.

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

How about the wall clock?

Swords are better than knives, though I do acknowledge that someone with a knife can get inside the reach of someone with a sword, so effectiveness can be debated.

For pretty, though, I still go with swords. Says the Woman With Sting Hanging on the Living Room Wall. And it's sharp enough to do some damage and has really nice balance when swung against a target.

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

Hec, you note that page says:

We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock.

I've had an ebay alert on her forever. Hasn't pinged. I hate to think of how much she'd cost when she does. Hell, I'm stunned I have three of the five (Daniel and Morpheus are a twofer) bought at retail prices. They cuddle with Hello Kitty, who's wearing pink bunny ears.

Really, my NSYNC puppet isn't going to be scaring anyone off. They're not going to get that far.

I said it was out there. I didn't say you could have it.

Go to the San Diego Comic Con seller's room. I bet it's there for a reasonable price.

We could clone Pete for you? Because hell, in addition to the assorted Nightmare Before Christmas, Sandman, and Disney stuff we've got around the house, we've got a life-size bust of a Predator in the living room.

I have a sternum next to my Justice League cars at the base of my TV. Doesn't even have a shadow box. It's just lying there.

Connie, my sword is in the bedroom on the other side of the bed from the Legolas knives.

Ooh, I wonder where Dread Pirate Roberts' sword will go. It comes with wall mounting.

ANYONE can.

I dunno, Steph. You're a miracle.

How about the wall clock?

It's hard to play house with a wall clock, though.

Well, of course, it's elf made.

It doesn't glow, though. Which could just mean that, despite the membership of my meatspace friend list, no orcs have been in my living room.
