Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Think and pike! Wrongheadedness, other people!

I'm with Liese, on account of how Very, Very Right and Correct she is.

Can I at least assume you will all join me to mock the guy who sent a bunch of us an email thanking us for our "patients and assistance" as we work out a new process?

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

Not 'patients and assistants'?

Yes, yes, free rein, *but* reign of terror, rain of toads. Also, pleasepleaseplease fire all fic writers whose protagonists lathe anything on a soft, vulnerable human body.

Nobody ever thanks the assistants.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Or, as autocorrect woold like me to say, fang lewdness.

I for one am quite impressed that your autocorrect has an opinion on "new-fangledness" but not on "woold". (Given that Biyi's surname is Fang, I'm finding the correction ambiguous.)

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Thing & Pike! 4evah!

I also had never heard of it being "think" before today, too. How funny!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

billytea, what does "Fang" mean? In Chinese, that is.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

the hug was the first thing, Polgara.

Sophia knows what's up.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Nobody ever thanks the assistants.

Except Terry Gross! Although that's more "credit" than "thanks."

Speaking of firing, I just want people to stop talking about their fandom's cannon.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

The hug! The hug was the first thing! The hug isn't happening, so there is another thing coming!
