Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[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.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Thank you, Shir. I am now putting "deployer of magical farts of pink unicorns" on my next resume.

I hope I didn't offend you. I'm very much in awe of everyone who can handle these things (not to mention programing. As I mentioned on Twitter the other day, in a perfect world I would like to be a programmer and a lesbian, and sadly, this isn't a perfect world).

But I know what a DNS error is. I learned about it a month ago. And when to type the ipconfig /flushdns command. But that's about it. That's how high-tech I am, baby.

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

I like to pretend that electrons are like pinballs in a pinball machine. So if you have a very important post, it's best to hit the Enter key hard, which will cause the electrons to bounce around more, making them more likely to get where they're supposed to go.

Perhaps Shir's and my theory can be unified like so:

Computers are like a Pink Unicorn Magical Fart pinball machine....

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

HA! So that's why I do it...

Curious, how often do you need to buy a new keyboard?

I approve. That's how computers work. Don't trust the "experts". Next time your machine breaks, open up the computer and search for the tiny pink unicorns with the pinball machines that are glued to their asses. Ignore people in white coats who might try to prevent you from doing so. They're trying to make sure you'll never see the magical pink unicorns, and that's just wrong, y'know.

The biggest keyboard issue I've ever had to face was cleaning out cat vomit.

Note: The key is to dry your keyboard innards thoroughly after you get the kitty puke out....

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

I'd like to think Shir's drunk, but I suspect this is normal for her.

Sobbed about my house for at least an hour, then went to the pub. It is all Fine. We will Complete Tomorrow. I will be Calm. OK.
