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

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
That's like putting masturbation on your to-do list. "Oh fuck, gotta go fuck myself. Bother."
Masturbation is perfectly valid on a to-do list, if you're donating sperm. Because sometimes it involved driving to Wisconsin or Rockford, IL.

Because books.
I'm pretty sure everyone's entitled to their own definition of onerous.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I think donating sperm is considered onanous, rather than onerous.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
My onerous task for today was finding a workaround for a bunch of damaged archival image files that were needed for books we're having reprinted more than 5 years after the fact. I managed to do this successfully in a day's time against all odds, so if you know any lepers in need of curing now would be a good time to send them my way.

Jesse, let us know if you'll be stuck, if you need a place to crash, etc. My DH is going up to NYC tomorrow on the train.

It could be onanously onerous or onerously onanous.

Heh. Good point.
Whenever I hear about Onan, I think about his spilling semen on the ground and God smiting him. Also, emergency power generators.
Huh. Apparently Onan got bought out by Cummins. So now they're Cummins Onan

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
DCA, Lisa. Thanks, Sparky! I am hoping for the best. And trying to look at Amtrak, although the wifi in here sucks, and I hope we're about to get on the plane.... Wish me luck!
