I think it is actually the detailed world building which people like that makes me dislike them.
Best part of the audiobooks, hearing the songs instead of reading them :).
Yeah, we're building a race of frog-people. It's a good time

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, nail polish, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Love Rosie. Saw a few new ones there. Si Se Puede is my favorite of those takeoffs as well.
You have to be sports-crazy to be a Buffista? I wouldn't have guessed that.
I signed up on Alikewise about a month ago. Forgot all about it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
xkcd is a little aggressive today.

ION, my mom has decided that all the St. Augustine grass where I'm going to put the raised bed has to be lifted and used as sod elsewhere. We've been talking about this raised bed for more than a month and this is the first time she's mentioned that requirement. I cannot physically do it myself which means either my brother or my dad have to and it has to fit with their schedule. So instead of being able to start gardening this week, I have no idea when I'm going to be able to start. Get over one roadblock with her and another appears. *sigh*
Great weather today. I really like the windiness.

Before Saturday's class started, I was chatting with the classmate sitting next to me. I don't know why, but we were talking about people we knew who had connections to unusual celebrities, and I mentioned that an assistant manager of mine from Waldenbooks had as her landlady the first wife of John Wayne Gacy. That got us talking about serial killers overall--the classmate was familiar with Gacy since she lives near where his house was and had seen the tv movie with Brian Dennehy as Gacy. However, when I then mentioned she should rent "Deliberate Stranger" with Mark Harmon as Ted Bundy, she had no clue who Bundy was.

Wow, I'd have thought Bundy would be one of the more famous modern serial killers.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Nascar (sorry, Cass!), Formula I,
Wrong order.
True.
And, Bev, you make an amused face when I squeak and burble instead of the omgshutupshutupshutup face, so I have no complaints.
Mmm, race cars.

wrod. Although my mom and I follow that sort of stuff and talk about it a lot. I've seen that movie, too.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I don't even like the LotR movies. I'm not a big fan of fic, either. Or sandwiches.
My Buffista card ownership would be tenuous if not for The Book.
