What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

If that ever made it into fanfic usage--oh, can you imagine the abuse?

It doesn't have to be sexual! They just want to initiate SOMETHING...like building a time machine together.

Also, that one, at least, is real. It's in the Guinness Book of World Records for "most succinct word." The definition there has a different nuance to it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good news for the day! I finally got my Wonder Woman costume, and it totally works under the suit. Now I can't decide if I should do bun+no tiara, or hair down+tiara.

Also, and I'm just saying, but I'm pretty sure my future husband (TBD) will enjoy the costume on its own.

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

There needs to be a word that means, "A priest and a rabbi walk into a bar." Then a lot of jokes would take less time to tell.

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

HALLOO, innocent. It covers 75% of Dean/Castiel right there. Parker and Hardison do it all the time. Of course that's what it's for.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

hair down+tiara.

Yeah, that would make it more obvious. And fun!

Always Anti-fascist!

I love Parker/Hardison.

God, I can talk some bullshit sometimes. I like to think it greases the business wheels, but who knows? I may just look like a raging idiot.

"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

Once when I was a kid Mom bought me some of those Breakfast Squares that were well over a year past their sell-by date. The cinnamon ones were my favorites, so we didn't find out about it until I got to the concrete-like chocolate squares. (Thinking about life before refrigerators and vacuum packing, that does make the extreme efforts taken to traverse spice-trading routes make a lot of sense.)

You know what's really simple? Write down your alternate outgoing message and read it instead of trying three times in a row to wing it, especially if you don't remember what day you come back in, and it contains two extensions.

FYI.
