I had to explain to my boss what steampunk was.
He does welding and is looking for welding goggles that have separate eye pieces. He couldn't find any, but he was wondering what all these elaborate steampunk goggles were.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

We have serious thunder-bumpers, at least in my area. Light rain, though. I had to turn off the news coverage. I'll check for updates after the current Buffy episode (on Tabula Rasa right now).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A co-worker of mine named Chris just came and chatted with her brother Chris who sits over the divider from me. Apparently they have a sibling Chris, but I'm not sure of the unknown Chris' gender.
Why do people do this? Why do people let people do this to them?

They're thinking: "This would be really funny and awesome. I thought it up because I have a great sense of humor. Anyone who doesn't appreciate it is a fuddy-duddy. If my kids don't like it, they can develop a great sense of humor like me."
Or something like that.

They both work in the same company, so it's clearly had all sorts of unhealthy effects.
Man, I just read a bunch of mall ninja discussion, and the obvious segue into mocking The Deadliest Warrior. It helped my day, let me tell you.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday JZ!
