Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

We have a fruit fly invasion at work (a co-worker FORGOT about an apple in her desk, ISTG). We're starting to keep track of how many we kill (Chatty!co-worker is in the lead, but I'm gaining).

I think a flamethrower is called for. (Aims told me on Facebook I could have one.) I texted Tim to tell him of the fruit fly invasion and ask where to buy a flamethrower, and he texted back "Hair spray plus lighter." I love that man. AND he's my only chance of surviving the zombie apocalypse.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

People made fun of Mitt Romney for saying the trees are the right height in Michigan, but I think there's something to it -- the general environment where you grew up feels correct in some undefinable way, I think.

I think you should teach the fruit flies how to copy-edit.

They're small enough that I could use them as punctuation!

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 think you should smush them on a piece of paper and then scan the paper and make it the desktop wallpaper on the computer belonging to the person who left the fruit out.

Eta: or what Teppy said.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Do I really have to have an opinion on the rape joke thing? Ugh. I can't believe my sister is making me do this. I don't even know what the joke is. This is kinda deliberate.

I vote "no".

I don't even know what the joke is.

Extremely unfunny.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I don't know what the joke is, either. I have no opinion.

So true. K hates going to Ohio and Michigan because she feels like all the driving is in shrubbery -- too dense etc. I feel like the wide half-circle skies of Idaho feels oppressive.

I do feel like the sky is smaller in NC than in northern Michigan. And I miss my wide sky. Sometimes the hills and whatnot blocking my view makes me feel claustrophobic.
