I wanted to tell them that there has been a paradigm shift and to think outside the box so that we can actualize the potential of the situation and proactively solution the situation.
That actually hurt a little bit to read. "Solution" as a verb is like a knife in my back, man.
Fall fell here, for sure. I could have actually used gloves today! Or maybe fingerless ones. Something. A sassy scarf, perhaps.
(Sidenote: queer != the same thing in all locales, so internationalization may have something to do with its fall from favor as a catch-all. It's apparently pretty specific to 100% homosexuals in some areas. I had to clear up a LOT of confusion on my flist because of that.)
I think it's about time for QUILTBAG.
There was a thing on the Times website (not sure if it was in the actual paper) recently about STEM, for science-technology-engineering-math, as used in education, and how it's stupid. But honestly, it's so much better than SMET, which is what they started with....

And I have a cold and feel awful and will gut anyone like a trout who tries it.
I think they need to remember that seven-digit rule, though. I can barely remember LGBT correctly, much less ... whatever that was up there.

That's why QUILTBAG works!
I don't understand you people with no purple. It's a lovely lovely colour. Come over to the grape side. My decision this morning was pretty simple--warmest uncrinkled thing meant the sweater. And it's the right purple that I can match it with one of my purple pendants.
I'm trying to decide which is more ironical and useful for every #2 situation--Electric Boogaloo, or The Squeakquel. I think I've decided Electric Boogaloo wins, and that it may even be acceptable to slide The Squeakquel in for subsequent sequels.

It's important to remember that before Electric Boogaloo the go-to sequel for all joke making was "The Bride of..."
