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.

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

Oh, that was a great show! Great.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The fact that I think this is a perfect Christmas gift for The Boy is a testament to how weird our relationship is: LED angler fish.

I am not even a teeny tiny bit joking.

(Lest you forget: this is the fucked-up, all-true tale of the angler fish: [link]

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That is kind of awesome.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

That is fantastic. I trust he won't misconstrue the message as being "I only want you for your gonads".

There are worse reasons to date.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

depending on the gonads in question, of course

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

{{{spidra}}} I fear having nothing to offer but ~ma that a perfect housing solution miraculously appears allowing you to get out from under your parent's thumb. The situation just sounds worse and worse.

This. I'm sorry, sweetie.

Also, job~ma to smonster.

Peoples! I am speaking with you (Americans) from the future! It is Monday morning, and news is telling me that the world is still turning, and people are still pretty much themselves (read: stupid).

Am I an optimist to hope for a better future, wrt less stupid people?

I might be a bad person, but people are bad.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

People are people. And full of surprises. They are never as good or as bad as you expect.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

There's been a lot of snow here, and I'm debating whether or not to go in to uni. If they haven't gritted the campus, I could fall and dislocate things. Or I could see if my wheelchair can cope with frozen-over snow. Might be like skiing! Or it might be like getting stuck.

Shir, I'm sorry to hear you got hate mail, but it's also a sign that you're doing well. We quite enjoy the 'you people are nothing but scrounger scum' e-mails/comments we get at Where's the Benefit, being a sign that we're really reaching people. Continuing congrats on all the good stuff that's coming out of this.

{{{Spidra}}} It sucks that you're still in this situation. I hope there are ways forward soon.
