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.

If you're moving, just ship the sex toys ahead of you.

"Will nobody think of the sex toys?!"

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

It makes me think of my Finnish ancestors when they moved to the US. The first thing they'd do with their land is build a sauna. Then they'd live in (and use) the sauna while they built a house and barn. That way they had the most important thing first.

Sorta' the same thing with moving to a new place and sending the sex toys there first....

Mine did the same thing! In fact, I believe my grandmother was born in the sauna, either because the main house wasn't done yet or because it was a good source of hot water.

Where did they live? My grandparents had a dairy farm near Alexandria, MN. My great-grandfather worked in the mines in Minnesota (I think) to raise the money to bring his wife over from Finland.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I love that I've been disappeared for the better part of two weeks and when I come in, we're talking sex toys. Love. It.

Know what else I love, since it's all about me? Teaching. Or at least I love the little bit of it that I'm doing. I'm happier in the past six days of this job than I was the last six months at Old Job.

Yay, Aims! That is wonderful to hear.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Teaching can be an utter joy sometimes.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

David, I don't want to make this a huge thing but I also don't want to just ignore it. So I am saying something.

When you said earlier "Oh fuck off." to someone and I commented with "The hell?" What I should have done was quote the Etiquette page "The Buffistas are an inclusive, welcoming, and flame-free community. Play nice, and you've found a home away from home. If you make personal attacks or offensive posts, or try to start a fight, you will be shunned." because your comment was really uncomfortable to read even while not directed at me. It wasn't something appropriate to this community.

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

Cass, it bugged me too, so I'm glad you said something. I was trying to figure out a way it was meant in jest but, you know, there's no tone on the Internet.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I had a mother who wouldn't let me have tampons in the bathroom. I couldn't even have them out in my room. I had to hide them. So, you think that I would leave sex toys out? Oh, hell no.
