Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Biyi: "Bloody Irish peasant!"
Ahahahaha.
The claw broke off, or he bit it off. So I'm just going to watch it for infection. And get the other claws trimmed Saturday.

"Bloody Irish peasant!"
Scandinavian immigrants to the midwest were ridiculed by locals for passing up the abundant beef for overpriced dried fish and yellow potatos. Their kids mostly got over it and turned to steak. So did the increasingly wealthy Scandinavians back in the old country.
A couple of years ago I was in Oslo for a dissertation defense, and the committee was taken to a very nice resturant by way of appreciation. One of the specials was a retro-chic traditional Norwegian meal of reconstituted cod, what passes for local vegetables, and boiled heirloom potatos. As a kid, we called that meal "Sunday dinner," but to the locals it was both exotic and patriotic at the same time. The price was a mere $212.
I went with the steak.

There may be no sadder words in the English language than "reconstituted cod."

Especially since “gefilte” is so fun to say.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Take care of yourself, Vortex. At the least, treat the psychic shock. And RIP, little car.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I praise the company of Saab and their Vortex saving ways.
My college roommate's sister was killed when she was t-boned in an intersection. Nice to know some carmakers were obsessed with saving the humans inside them.
I would rather eat lamb than reconstituted cod.

Hey, Happy Birthday, David! May there be no reconstituted cod at all.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I will go on record as saying that both the lamb and the potatoes were delicious. (As were the pumpkin and sweet potato.) Ryan enjoyed the lamb too. My son!
