Because books.

This picture is making me dizzy

And he wants the next one to be upside down! I'm not sure serving coffee in a place that would make a lot of people slightly nauseous is the smartest idea.

Where is he getting financing for that in this economy?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

We have the annual retreat with the folklore society this weekend, so I need to pack. Haven't prepared any songs, so I'll mostly be listening. That's fine with me.

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

I didn't realize that some people thought that roller derby was all fakey and staged.

Banked track vs. flat track. Banked Track is old school roller derby and it was/is fakey, staged and like the WWF. That's what we get around the corner at Kezar Pavilion. Flat Track is the newer roller derby leagues, with punk rock girls and cool tats, and it's not staged.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And I hope no one thinks that WWE isn't really hard and athletic, despite being staged.

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

We do know people are stupid.

Yeah, it's pretty easy to separate a shoulder when you're flying off the top turnbuckle.

True, true.

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

Speaking of which, I just got asked if my room reservation from 12:30-13:00 was really for 12:30-1:00, because she "think[s] 13 is military time for 1."

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

What am I missing?

What I'm missing is why she asked the question in the first place, honestly. Perhaps I assume too much. I can't imagine not being sure 13:00 is 1PM. Either you know, or you have no idea.
