This is what I have. It's neat.
Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

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

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

If Dr. Steiglitz is American, go with Dr. If he's not, it's more complicated.
This is a reasonable rule of thumb. In America anyone can open a university and declare a whole new group of folks "professors," so the academic qualification is more important than the job title. In many European countries the number of Professors is fixed by law, and you have to have a long successful career to obtain a position with that title. In that case the position is more presigious than the academic qualification.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In Jamaica, Marcia is pronounced mar-see-ya, and if you want to be called mar-sha, you should spell your name Marsha. I'm still not over that assumption.
OMG, I am never going to understand this project.

The first Marcia I ever met (she and her husband were friends of my parents) was Jamaican, and it screwed me up for the Americanized version.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Words with Friends wouldn't let me play "slut." I'm a bit offended.
Words with Friends has denied other mildly off-color words for me. It's a little prudish.

I checked their word list, and it's on there, but they say they don't allow offensive words. I know it was blocking something else for me I was sure was a word, and I guess that was it too.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Hmph. Words with friends does not know their etymology very well, because slut only came to mean a promiscuous woman fiarly recently.
For centuries, it meant a slovenly woman, usually in a housekeeping or an appearance contest. That's why an old term for dust bunnies is "slut's wool."
