Faith ,'Get It Done'
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.
Many belated thanks for the birthday happies. I was up in Maine for most of last week on vacation and have only just caught up (on this thread he says eyeing Bitches wearily).
Also belated birthday happies to sj.
Congrats to Tom and Jesse on their respective good news!

Was having MA be an elephant meant ironically or was it just willfully perverse?
Thanks, Tom! I was thinking smonster, but couldn't recall who else.
HI! Vortex!
Whereas you recall how Laura dealt with Eliza Jane when she messed with her little sister, don't you?
Laura whaled on a teacher? I totally don't remember that ep.
No way man, that Anne is scrappy.
Until Anne of Ingleside, ITA, but Book 6 made her insipid.
Laura didn't beat up Eliza Jane. The incident I was thinking of was when Carrie was punished by having to rock the school bench with a loose bolt, and Laura came to help and got all wild and violent (the illustration in the book was very impressive!)
I had forgotten that! Laura kicked A!
Okay, so Anne would have the edge in a verbal battle, but a physical tussle definitely goes to Laura.
I LOVE than picture. She is FIERCE.
I haven't read the books since I was a kid--sounds like I need to do a reread!
From the happy discussion it has generated, it sounds like in a fight between Laura and Anne, everybody wins.
Imagine getting to do this: [link] as a living. Like, you decide there is a niche for it, and fuck, Slazenger will pay you to do it. That's some highly refined goal manifestation right there, and I feel shamed that I merely took a job someone else created.
