[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.

“Not dead yet!”

Ouch, Typo! Does not sound at all fun.

So, my husband, who is a prince amongst men, spent most of today working on a graphic based on a description from the book. In it, I mention a t-shirt the drum and bugle corps has as a souvenir item (a big thing in corps) so I thought it would be fun to have the graphic designed and have a few shirts made up as promo giveaway items.

This is what Lewis came up with and I'm just staggered by how cool it looks.

Wow that is cool. So Lewis is a professional Graphic Artist? (Sorry, I'm sure you've said, but for someone who successfully does academic work, I have the memory of a hummingbird.)

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

It's great, Barb!

Typo, I hope it takes care of itself but if it doesn't, I hope you get into see someone soon. Sounds very ouchy.

Hugs and ~ma to whoever needs them. Also to Jars and her friend, for that's what I remember from skimming last night. `istas, I vote for our lives to be easier and more fun. And Barb - I loved the swords in DH's graphic.

ION, I think we need a commenting policy in Hollaback Israel, but not for protecting the humble readers from the trolls. You see, in my site, we need one in order to protect the trolls from me. I just have to resist the urge the edit their comments and hunt them down and humiliate them publicly, and I know it'll lead to nowhere good and foamy, but damn, I kind of really want to.

(Because apparently I'm running a "not very nice" site if I don't allow "other opinions" (read: open tongue-lashing). I love it when the assholes forget that expressing "other opinions" means they allow shouting obscenities to their mother/sister/wife/daughter, because obviously they're right and I'm just a petty, NGA female who hates teh Man!)*

  • so what if a tiny part of this sentence is true.

Shir, I suggest checking out Shapely Prose's comment policy for some inspiration as to what to implement for your site.

Shir don't worry about running a "nice site". I mean I know that was sarcasm, but the thing is that you are a genuinely good person, but also a genuinely nice person, and you probably have a strong impulse to take accusations of not being "nice" seriously even when know intellectually they are bullshit. To put in bluntly, don't let the assholes tell you what the rule are. Victor (he posts so seldom don't know if you've run into his pixels here) once ran a site with only two rules: 1)Don't be an asshole. 2) I (Victor) decide what constitutes being an asshole.

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

Thank you, Nora. Looks promising! I think I'll also use Allyson's example with the apartment building, too. So much ignorance to be addressed! The But I'm a Nice Man, Can't I Tell You You're Hot And I Want You To Lick My Balls? people are... like out there, man. And they want clarifications. And the only one I'm willing to give back involve harsh words and metaphorical use of their mothers.

Victor's rules are excellent. And yes, I think I ran into his pixels few times.

Thanks, Typo. Some people thought I'm taking it personally, but actually, I'm just so very bloodthirsty. Nothing personal but my lack of will to accept bullshit, and that ain't very personal.

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

I'm debating if one should use "German reunification" or "German unification" or "German unity" with regarding to 1990 (wiedervereinigung). Hivemind?
