Damn, this stupid month is going to be longer than I thought.
Leap Second Scheduled for June 30, 2012
So one second before midnight will be 23:59:60.
Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.
'Dirty Girls'
Natter 70: Hookers and Blow
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.

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

I totally have this!
I want to say "awesome!" but I'm not sure if it is....

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
I included "totally" because I was surprised it was a thing that had a name. DW thinks I'm bizarre because things like stacked roof tiles or a close up pic of a strawberry make my skin crawl. Even typing that made my skin crawl. Ew.

Because books.
I don't know a lot about laws related to posting on internet discussion boards, but I picked up the idea somewhere that discussing one's pedophilic urges -- even if it's not pursuing another poster under 18; just discussing it without having a target, so to speak -- would get a board shut down.
Oh, you could be right -- I was just extrapolating based on how things usually work, I guess?
It's gross either way. And I think his position of, Eh, just find a new username, is atrocious.

We have rain! Ok, it is light rain and there is lightening, but any bit of rain will help. There may be more rain this evening.

So I'm guessing a gift of something covered in beads would be a bad idea.

Weirdly, I think I'd be okay with that. For me, it's something to do with patterns, and not even all patterns. I just know it (or feel it) when I see it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
And I totally did NOT click on the flaming Z link.
I swear, it's just fire! Monochrome fire! But she couldn't really even talk about it, it was making her heart race and she was visibly flinching. She tried to get me to bring it up again, so she could steel herself, but it clearly wasn't working.
That link of other people saying it bothered them--I don't even know if she could read it, but I will tell her that it's there, and that there's a Buffista that shares her squick.
It is *totally* the weirdest phobia I've ever encountered though. I can't make the lotus pod DO NOT CLICK, GC!!! even vaguely disturbing to me. She got one on her plate once, and someone had to take it off and hide it under their lettuce. Which she regarded suspiciously for the rest of the meal.
I think banning people and telling them to sock puppet back in is entirely the wrong solution. I think banning them is unfair (if they're not pursuing, recruiting, or regaling), but hiding them when they come back--I'm assuming that they outed themselves, right? Then that should be their problem. Giving everyone else a false sense of security (did they take him up on this suggestion? who is that new person????) and an overlarge sense of paranoia is doubly dumb and not good modding.
