Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

It only had six legs! It was the human termite or something.

::snerk:: This, too, helps my brain be less horrified.

NOT sicko human on human freak-o shit. I can't even get a smile out of the campier aspects of it. I just get wrapped up in the "gah, humans, they suck" aspect and then spiral down.

This is totally me.

Then I need to go hug a vampire or a werewolf.

Hmmm. I can't decide which vampire to hug!

Now tagless for your comfort.

I have trouble choosing between Eric Northman and Selene from Underworld.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Avoid the sparkly ones.

Yep, me too. Which is why I don't watch stuff from that genre. The "humans suck" part, plus the "wow, this is kind of a boring story. Why bother?" If I'm watching horror, I want it to be interesting and inventive, thanks.

Then I need to go hug a vampire or a werewolf.

I agree with this statement, and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

I want 'em naked or wrapped in leather & latex.

I ate two cupcakes--the rejected one from the bake sale dozen I had to do. Probably a mistake this late.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Well, and then I apologized for cringiness much later in life, and the apology was all for me and not at all helpful to her. So the best thing would have been to just let it go. She`d forgotten and so should I have.
 
In amongst the other hot gossip about old schoolmates I got over this weekend, I also learned that my childhood bully who I refused to facebook friend is still a complete asshole. Was an asshole to my friend during her first bout with cancer. Seriously? So I feel no need to forgive her or try to find closure or anything. She was and remains a horrible person and I`m happy she`s no longer anywhere near my life.

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

Please tell me that is a typo.

Ha, yes.

THEY COME FROM EGGS?!?

Hey, man, I didn't ask a lot of questions when faced with the cuuuuute.

How exactly did you acquire said kitten?

No smuggling involved!I went to pick up my chickens and eggs like usual and the farmer asked me if I knew anyone who would want a kitten an I foolishly asked what they looked like, so she brought me to see them and, voila, kitten with no name crawling around on my chest all purry while I type.

Eta: gender indeterminate. Farmer thought female, but I know I can't tell at this point.

I'm kind of a little bit tempted to see Due Date just out of (utterly explicable) RDJ love.

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

I frowned through the entire Jackass 3D trailer...and then the final scene made me guffaw. I felt so dirty. But I'm not gonna go! I have probably gotten the only laugh I'd get out of it.

The giant hand is gold! (Really, I had the exact same reaction to that trailer. Couldn't believe there was another movie and didn't really find anything funny...but that giant hand cracked me up.)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The DH went last weekend and thought it was hilarious, as did our very prim friend Heather. One bit he described had me laughing so hard tears were rolling down my face. A little person actor goes into a bar with his "girlfriend" and they start arguing. Then another group of little people arrive and a huge fight breaks out. Then a police car pulls up and a group of cops, all little people, come in and break things up. All done with total seriousness. Finally, the EMTs come, all little people, and carry the wounded party out on a little stretcher. The funny part was the reactions of the people at the bar who were drunk enough that they were saying how fast the cops got there, rather than noticing that everyone was a little person.

Hey, it was funny to me. And after watching my brothers and their friends play games like "I'll ride my bike down the driveway while you throw rocks at me" or "Who will eat this bug" for FUN, the pain-based games just seem like a very extreme version of boy play.
