Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am the unpurger. I have clothes that I've owned for more than 20 years, and as long as they keep fitting, I probably will. But I've been lucky to be close enough to the same size since the end of university. The clothes I have from when I gained weight I can probably get rid of, but part of me is sure I'm going to gain weight again, eventually, and I liked them...which is pretty stupid.

I lost a bunch of clothes in Katrina, and although I could tell you only two or three precise pieces, I miss them terribly. Also, considering the amount of time it's been since I did *all* my laundry, well, I'm overstocked. But I still want it all.

I'm pretty sure I let the tea store rob me. On the other hand, the jasmine dragon pearls smell *really* nice. I am looking forward to this cuppa.

I sorted the spreadsheet for my sister and didn't mention to her it was trivial. Because I'm passivecool like that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I still look at stuff I haven't worn in years, and think, but I might!

Gimme half an excuse to bust out the leather pants, and I will. It has easily been 15+ years since I last did. That half excuse is elusive.

Why am I looking at pictures of Batman/Superman wondering if they'd really leave on that much of their costumes? Characterisation? ita? Really?

Superman must rip a lot of clothes, huh?

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

When I do purge, I keep things just because I love them, whether I wear them (or can wear them) or not. But I keep them in a box and not in my closet. And it is just one box, so that's not so bad, right?

Not so bad!

I'm trying to go to Goodwill more regularly, since I only bring a little at a time, due to carrying it.

I think with Batman it's slow and tender and...maybe there's a striptease?

Tasty tea.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I just did that big clothes purge in January, when I got rid of 9 bags of clothes and cleared out more than half of my rather huge closet and reduced three drawers of lounge-around-the-apartment clothes to one.

I'll be restocking both the closet and the chest of drawers after I finish losing my weight--a friend has already stated emphatically that we are going to go out shopping at that point, because she feels my clothes shopping skills are severely lacking.

Because books.

I know I'm not a true comics fan, but in my head Batman would call Superman a sissy, and go for someone like Iron Man.

Perkins and ita are wholly responsible for me mainlining Community for days now.

I mean just by accident. It can't be slow and tender ALL the time!

Um, which reminds me, I need to mend that one dress....
