Ha, that is probably it, actually!
We use the latest in scientific technology and state-of-the-art weaponry and you, if I understand correctly, poke them with a sharp stick.

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.

Good grief, I cannot have 4 periods in an ellipsis.
It's 4 if you're leaving out a whole sentence.

I love the Count of Monte Cristo. Although I'm not sure I would think to list it as a favorite.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I've never read Count of Monte Cristo. I've seen the movie, but I don't really remember much of it except that it had sword fights and people climbing things.

Goddammit, Ginger, now you are making me look through ALL my damned style guides. I'm like Pavlov's freaking grammar-sniffing dog.
Ooh, I need to catch up with Revenge; I was going to do that the other night, and was distracted by finishing Sherlock. I only worked for 42 minutes today! It's almost like a weekend!

Yay, sj, good luck!

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Yay, sj!
I'm really hesitant to eliminate someone based on an online profile. Sure, it helps to see whether you've got things in common, but it also may eliminate some really cool people.
DH is not a reader. He tolerates books at best, but he doesn't care if I bury myself in them. We have very basic values in common, but are very divergent in interests, though hockey was the reason we got together. He's brought me into the aviation world, and I would have missed out on that otherwise. Yes, we do fight--about money mostly--and I know you all remember our drama, but I was just as complicit in creating it as he was.
He's not religious, and I'm culturally Catholic more than anything, but I tend to fall back on it during bad times (c.f. cancer diagnoses in 2010-2011). He doesn't understand it, but he accepts it. I accept the fact that the only time I'll get him into a church is for our wedding and my funeral.
Eh, I'm rambling. I guess I'm just reluctant to miss out on something because it doesn't match my interests. Which also explains why I've never found anything to be truly passionate about.
