I feel like this Miss Manners column has some relevance WRT gender roles in the Modern World. Also I just liked it this morning. [link]
Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

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.

I said it all more eloquently, though. I think.
What, that wasn't eloquent?? Sounded pretty damned eloquent to me!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Seriously, dude. Protect and cherish yourself. I'll take care o' me. I didn't ask for your protection and cherishing. I hate that attitude.

My stomach just pitched another fit. Despite the zantac and the peppermint. I'm giving up on food.

Because books.
I'm giving up on food.
The cigarettes and iced tea diet isn't really working wonders for me, though, for what it's worth.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
So, I bought something from Gaiam a while back and they sent me an email on Monday advertising a big sale. Hmm. So I clicked on the email, followed the sale link to their site, browsed the site, realized why I don't buy anything from them anymore and went back and deleted the email.
Today I got another email from them THANKING ME for visiting the site. Creeptastic. Damn.

Does Pepto work for you? I find it works really well - better than Gas-x for me, but people are different. I didn't know about peppermint. I should really try to find out the cause of my gastric issues are, but not right now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You know, if you're upset I didn't edit the document to give exactly the results you wanted, you should consider the fact you don't actually want anyone but you to edit the document. If I don't get to make judgment calls, you have to dictate. End of story.

Whoah, that is creepy, LeN!
