'Shells'
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.
Sue, after a very long and mopey conversation with my mother last night (her: "I don't think I can stand watching CBC tonight."), I had a Rusty Nail and put this song on repeat: [link]
(Lily Allen. It's probably obvious which song it is. NSFW lyrics. I figure it repurposes nicely for Harper, as does half of Tumblr.)
So it seems there's this big debate on Facebook over who would win in a fight: Batman or Jesus.
I read that! And it just made me sad, because it reminded me SO MUCH of the humorless dogmatism of the freak-ass church. Even an OBVIOUS joke was simply taken as an opening to beat someone with The Truth About God's Plan For Your Salvation Through Jesus OH MY GOD WHY WON'T YOU JUST ACCEPT CHRIST AS YOUR SAVIOR SO I CAN GET MY TOASTER.
I wish I were joking. I think perhaps people would be less put-off by the FAC types if the FAC types actually could recognize and acknowledge when someone is taking the piss. (Did I use that phrase right? "Taking the piss" = "Making a joke," yeah?)
(Did I use that phrase right? "Taking the piss" = "Making a joke," yeah?)
Yes. But the connotation is also like, making a joke, and giving the business to the jokee.
This Wall Used To Have Art On It
A real estate company painted over a wall of art in Sydney, Australia, prompting this follow-up response.
Heh.
So I'm at my migraine specialist, and it seems they can't find the appointment. The specifics aren't typical, but the frustration is.
Do these people understand that stress is a migraine trigger?
More like "Making fun of", then.

I had to break out the scotch.
My sympathies to the Canadians.
So, talk to me like I'm stupid: is there any hope in the NDP's relative success?
But, Allyson, you're stuck in the Green Lantern past. Updating you doesn't seem to have any effect.
Yeah, I'm not really rational about this.
Also, I'm disappointed that the Limbaugh thing turned out to by sarcasm. I do think folks trying to desperately to twist the story into a victory for the Bush Administration in spite of the Obama administration look completely craxy to most humans.
I just had a very pleasant trip around my office building -- they were having an employee sale, where I got my mother a Nina Totin' Bag for cheap, and then when I was getting lunch, two people complimented my dress! Which is nice because I like it more in theory than in reality and was just this morning thinking I should just get rid of it.
