Oh yeah, my grandmother called the fire department a bunch of times, when my grandfather was slipping out of the sling thing that got him between his bed and his chair. Just make sure they don't break your door down, and they are very helpful!
You're talking to Serenity. And, Early... Serenity is very unhappy.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wow. The Guinness world record holder for plastic surgeries looks remarkably normal, compared to a lot of the cases we get shown in Hollywood.

Scrappy (or anyone else who cares to have a look), as an HR person, what do you think of this? [link]

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Not bad. I really agree on the "objective" comment, ESPECIALLY since the objective is usually "To get[the job I am applying for right now]." Duh.
The whole show don't tell thing is very good, but don't think the person reading your resume is a dope and use that to lie. If your job was as a server at IHOP, describing accomplishments like "managed meal delivery" is just a waste of paper.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Puh-lease. Everyone knows it's "managed just-in-time logistics for meal delivery" anyway.

Very important question! Why are people playing Words with Friends instead of Lexulous for fake Scrabble?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I don't even know about "cancous joshing." "Canerous" maybe? "Rancorous"?
Cankerous?

Lisah--because people told me to! Is lexulous available for my phone?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have it on my iphone!
I play all of them, pretty much.
