Homey, maybe?
I'm just waiting to see if I pass out. Long story.

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.

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

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I thought homey was referring to a person, not a place. Huh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have a French Canadian friend who said his girlfriend looked middle-aged when he meant she looked medieval (it was her dress). She was 19 and didn't take it well, so it was pretty...okay, we shouldn't have laughed, but we did.
Of course, he's the same guy that when another girl asked him "Do I look fat in this?" his answer was "Not more than usual" so he was always a gold mine of the wrong thing to say to a chick.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I feel like homey is a pretty recent addition to English but if I heard, "this place has a homey feel" I would understand they meant it felt like home.

That's a more recent slang usage.

Comme ci, comme ça. I only took the basic level in university. But I want and plan to improve it in the future.
Montreal rocks, Shir.
So I hear!
