Thanks for the ~ma. I'm vibing hard for her too.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

[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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
All the good thoughts in the world for your friend, Raq.
I'm sure the interview went well, Shir.
Transferring our records and vhatnot to a new PC practice today, and H has his first appointment. I need to make mine. We've heard good things about the practice and they seem a much better fit for us for multiple reasons, but I know and can find out nothing relevant about any of the individual practicioners. Time for dartboard choice, I guess.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

It's TRUE?!?!?

Yup. Also, related to how bog bodies in Ireland often have their nipples cut off, like this chap - [link]
Human jerky warning for the link.

So the nipples would be cut off so that no one could show submission to that person henceforth?

So goes the theory. Iron Age bog bodies in Europe often have various different signs of 'sacrifice', usually three different methods of death (say, throat slit, bludgeoning, stabbed) and the nipple removal would be another level of sacrifice, giving up any chance of kingship in this or another life. It's especially likely because it often seems that very high status people, possibly even people of royal blood, were those being sacrificed.
But, y'know, build a time machine and we'll probably figure out they were just super-kinky.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
That is some killer trivia. Well-deserved win!
