All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I need to see these Malkovich ads. I think creepy is a hobby for him.

I see all kinds of stuff in fic especially

Oh, the homonyms. I see peek/peak confusion a lot. And words that aren't quite homonyms, but close enough to make me wonder if the writer is using voice recognition software and not really editing.

I once read the term "gestational fortitude" instead of "intestinal fortitude" in a fanfic

That stuff is the best. Too damn funny.

Now tagless for your comfort.

In crazy family news, my cousin, who is four years younger than me (37) is now a grandmother. She was a mom at 16. Five kids. *shudder*

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

Thanks, Jesse!

I'm kidless at 47, and I shudder as well.

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

I've seen "taken for granite" too many times.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Jesse, if it's not too personal, what size is that dress? It's gorgeous! I am a 10. If it would fit, and it's not too dear, I would be interested, if you could wait until we get our state refund.

I had a prof -- an ENGLISH prof!! -- who consistently mispronounced prowess "prowness." Drove me batshit, and I finally corrected him, and he told me I was wrong. Same prof who accused me of plagiarizing because a sophomore "couldn't write such a sophisticated analysis."

I DESPISED him.

"Taunt" stomachs...or "pull it taunt"...I've encountered those and it's verra annoying.

And I will never forget how appalled I was when I read that Anita Blake was wearing a "midrift" baring shirt in the first book -- several times. GRRR.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I need to see these Malkovich ads.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thanks, Jesse!

Reading handwriting is my superpower.

In crazy family news, my cousin, who is four years younger than me (37) is now a grandmother.

Yikes.

Too bad -- it's a 12.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I'm telling you, there needs to be a homonym checker in addition to a spell checker. Do I need to kickstarter this shit? Word 6 should have had this feature. No excuses. Definitely 20 years later!
