Does anybody else miss the Mayor? 'I just want to be a big snake.'

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.

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

And my default is to believe that I have no rights, my feelings don't matter, and if I don't do exactly what Tim* wants, then the relationship is over. Completely powerless.

Teppy, I am exactly like you in this regard. (OK, not about Tim, because I've never met him, but it's my default attitude towards the Other Person). The difference between you and me is that when I get caught in this way of thinking is to withdraw even further, and to not talk to anyone. Seeing you here talking about these things and trying to work through them is a huge inspiration to me. You're my hero.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Tom Scola is also my hero.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I'm so sorry, sj.

Yes, TB, that's a good summary. It touches one of the key points the people screaming "meltdown" keep missing, which is that when a nuclear person says core melt, they're talking about melting the zirconium alloy coating the fuel pellets, not a molten mass sinking to *shudder* China.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh, sj. That is so awful. I'm so sorry.

Tom Scola is also MY hero.

Aw, Tom! That means a LOT to me.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sorry, sj. How terrible.

Oooh, I meant to say that -- Tom, you are kicking ass in dealing with your stuff, and you're my hero, too.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Teppy, I'm so sorry you have this added stress right now.

Our wings are not tired.

I am so sorry, sj. How horrible.
