Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Gud, I think it depends, in part, on what your industry is like.

If I accepted a job and then bailed, it would definitely affect my future because I work in a small world.

So, generally, I'd tell the offering place that I needed time to go over their offer, but not telling them I was waiting for something better unless I was using it to bargain for a better offer (which I would then be willing to take), and put pressure on the non-offering places to give me an answer.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I agree with Sparky. I'd do the exact same thing, and indeed have done the exact same thing.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Weren't we just talking yesterday about sinus headaches? I think mine just got the message. This cold can go to hell any time.

The air-conditioning wizard is here! He did not, as I had hoped he would, arrive via dragon. He must be in disguise.

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

In this reality, his dragon appears as a truck.

It's so sad, because Kato just wants to help the human. He doesn't understand why he can't go outside and help with his Awesome HVAC Skillz. I tried to alleviate his pain with a peanut-butter-filled Kong.

Maybe Kato wants to go look for the dragon.

Otoh, I have been known to wear earrings that are more "dykey" as part of my general style.

I'll confess I've never really paid attention, so I have no idea what dykey earrings would look like. Miniature subarus and golf clubs?
