Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, God, Sophia, that's awful.

Didn't some awful coworker of askye's do almost the same thing a while back? What the hell is it with random people making random Buffistas feel painfully self-conscious about the way they smell, of all things?

(And, by the way, I've hung out with both askye and Sophia and they both smell delicious, so all their coworkers can, and I say this with all gentle earnestness and only because I care about them and hope maybe they can learn from it, go fuck themselves right off a roof.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I like this one, but that's me. I like it being a positive title.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Or noteverythingsucks.

I have only had a "you smell" conversation once in my life, when we had to corner a student from Russia in the dojo and explain that if he didn't wash his gi, he could never come back. Admittedly, the smell alone was a lethal weapon. He, however, had disgusting sweat stains and we had the pleas of a dozen students to do something. I can't imagine that you smell of anything unpleasant, Sophia. I think she's just a crazy person.

Because books.

Interrupting to ask the hivemind:

Ben's homework includes this question -- "This rabbit is found in American folklore and is seemingly the combination of two different animals as seen in its physical features. What is this mythical rabbit called?"

I'm drawing a blank. Help? (And it's not Brer Rabbit; that was a separate question.)

And there's my big DUH moment. Thank you, ladies.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Sophia, I'm sorry to tell you this, but I think you were mistaken when you thought this co-worker was a nice person.

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

You know, for rage fatigue. Oh look, good stuff happened, today! I thought everything fucking sucked! Apparently, I've been mislead.
