Always Anti-fascist!

I've never done anything interesting enough, probably. ita, I was kinda being tongue in-cheek about the pet thing. But we do say that as a joke. I catch her licking my footplates or sniffing my garbage often enough to dent any feeling I might have that my dog is more highly evolved than I. Despite that one time with Keith Olbermann's garbage.

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

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

If it doesn't address blowing or rolling, still not the device I need. ::continues with port::

Our wings are not tired.

I never played drinking games or truth-telling games, not even when I was at the hard-partying, all-but-orgy-having radio station in college. I'm thinking we didn't bother with excuses to get drunk, and we were too busy racking up interesting achievements to be tossing them out in games.

This is almost exactly me. Still not remotely interested in ever doing the drinking/truth-telling games. Can't see any upside.

I stayed home today. Let me express my appreciation for the entertaining Friday. I didn't really want to work anyway.

What are the weekend plans?

What are the weekend plans?

I'm finally going to see The Avengers.

Okay, it's not quite George Foreman, but the Christopher sitting over the cube wall from me has a sibling Christine, and I think Kristen.

There are three of them, anyway, and all are called "Chris".

Why do that to us? Don't you have a social contract not to confuse everyone? Also, two of them work here, so extra kerfuzzling.

Going to Madison to hang out with siblings and organize thousands of family photos going back to 1961 and earlier. I'll be scanning a bunch of them too.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Wedding in Chicago! (Sorry Chicagoistas, I'm in town for about 36 hours, no time to visit. I may try to squeeze in The Avengers instead of eating lunch.)

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

From way back, before the anipals and sexual deviancy conversation:

Hold on. So we as a collective have a service to decorate AND intimidate neighbors? Damn. I'm missing out.

YES! It's one of the perks of having me as a houseguest. Are your neighbors being inconsiderate twerps? Send the wacky Goth lady to talk to them! It confuses them into good behavior for a while.

I never understood why people chose dare. You could always just lie if you chose truth, whereas dare you needed to perform.

Hey, Sophia is me! But my crowd tended to play strip Trivial Pursuit. Pro tip: if one of the people playing has drunk less than everyone else, read odd books, AND wore lots of gothy layers, the chances of getting them down to their underwear are pretty low.
