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.
Sine qua non was the bullshit snobby term of the weekend with me and my parents (referring to my sister's speechwriting indiscretion). As a result of making sure we were defining it correctly, I found out that the "proper" plural is sine quibus non, which I urge everyone to run out and use as much as possible.

Jinx as a name is kind of cute and flirty. But I predict that her nickname in elementary school will be Pickle Juice.

Has someone gotten The Civil Rights Agenda to comment on Chik Fil A still supporting Marriage and the Family Foundation? It sounds like the ball's in their court.
One of the villa guests sent my sister a bit of a passive aggressive "do you still like me?" email. I know she's having a hugely bad time right now, but...can't you stave off asking until a week has gone by? I dunno...I know I'm overprotective sometimes, but it rankles.
Oh, and sis has watched S1 of Community twice now. Pop pop!
Yeah, I agree, ita !, a little window of chill doesn't seem too much to ask.
Oh, how cool is this? Conductive thread so you can knit it into the fingertips of your gloves and still use touchscreens. I didn't know whether to put it in the crafts thread or technology, so I went with Natter.
