Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This is the same boss who asked if I'd sleep with someone for employee retention purposes, so mixed messages much? Yeah, I'm well rid of them.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Tell me that wasn't also your annual bonus.

Huh. Not every day that a candidate for Congress from a major party says the violent overthrow of the US Government is "on the table."

There seems to be a part of the right-wing who believes that only they have a right to run the government regardless of who actually gets voted in.

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

Cool! Love how the author helped them out... and got one of the printed nanobots.

I'm gonna see if I can make little Daleks. Like maybe earring or necklace size....

Seriously, I think many believe this. They don't consider Obama to be a legitimate president, and they thought the same of Clinton....

eta: Then there are those who say the health care reform was "rammed down our throats" when Obama campaigned - and won - on that platform.

Based on my exhaustive sample size, Michigan doesn't have bonuses.

I went ahead and got all four wisdom teeth removed yesterday per oral surgeon's advice. Feeling somewhat better about the decision now since most of the pain is originating from the sockets of the ones that were definitely coming out no matter what. I just finished my first non-clear fluid meal (yay, roasted red pepper soup!) and am about to see how difficult it is to navigate the tooth-brushing minefield.

What is this bonus thing of which you speak?

My heart says no, but my data say yes. We're trying to find out now whether it is just distinctiveness in general or something specific about being sexually provocative. If the former, it might work just as well to dress as a Dalek.

Damn, and I couldn't find my R2D2 Dalek shirt this morning.

What shirt is that? Is there a link?
