In re: fire work guy. I'd vote for silence is your friend.
That's creepy and...creepier.
Years ago, I asked some well-feminized guy friends if crap like that really worked and, bless them, they nodded morosely. "It does. It _really_ does."
It's possible that he's in the land of perpetual Wednesday, or the crazy melty land, or you know, the world without shrimp.

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.

Seconded.
I can't even say how much I don't want to go to an outdoor party today.

smonster, I do not even have a reply, I am snorffling in my coffee with disbelief.
bonny, UGH. I have a pretty good idea what your talking about, and it IS an on-going theme, isn't it? How very, very irritating.
I stayed up late and just woke up a bit ago. We may have houseguests, and I need to Clean All The Things.
But I must caffienate first...

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
My hands have been randomly numb since last night.
I Googled "mild numbness in hands."
And then I remembered why you never do that.
I don't...think I'm having a stroke?

Yes. Inappropriate, creepy, and with a sprinkling of testing boundaries in kinda sketchy ways.
Polter, step away from Dr. Google. You are probably not having a stroke.

There are so many reasons that hands can go numb. I'd guess you're more likely having repetitive stress symptoms (you do type a lot, yes?) rather than a stroke.

That was my thought as well, although it was weird because I hadn't actually been typing all that much.
And I have to do a lot of typing this weekend. WORK BETTER, HANDS.

Put Google to good use and look up some wrist stretches you can do to help with that not-at-all-a-stroke numbness.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
There are other ways you can impinge on nerves and make your hands numb or tingly, usually based on spending time in odd positions (sleeping or whatnot), too
