If you die and come back to life? Last stand? Some people are trying to disqualify Gandalf...
Just keep walking, preacher-man.

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

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I think it best if we just don't use the phrase.
I think I need another nap. I forgot how much more important it is that people respond to emails when I am working from home.

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 it best if we just don't use the phrase.
So is this the last stand of our last stand discussion?

I think of a last stand as the last option, in which if you're defeated, you have no more moves to make. In a battle, you might die or be taken prisoner.

So, in reading about Miley Cyrus and the littler Hemsworth getting engaged, I learned that the bigger Hems is married to a 35 year old! Which...gives me hope?
The Hemsworths just had a little girl about a month ago, too.

IO9 linked to a distressing article on a dangerous "treatment" for autism. I don't understand why you have to make your snake oil so highly dangerous. Aren't there plenty of things that won't harm that you could bilk people with instead?

I asked for five months worth of data, and the guy came back to me saying (generous term for his tone) "That's a *lot*. You really want *all* that?" "Yup. I can't get a good sense of the traffic with less." "But it's a *lot*." "Mmm hmm." "A lot?"
Seriously, motherfucker, cut it up into usable chunks AND GIVE ME THE DAMNED DATA.
Okay, lunch.

Jesse, I share your appreciation for the awesomeness of Jay Smooth. I don't wish to marry him, but if I could be his friend and han out a bunch, that would be cool.
On a random other note: so, one of the possible questions you can answer on OKCupid (to help them match you) is "do you have a problem with racist jokes". I figure anytime I see a white person answer no", they aren't on my date-able list anymore. But I'm a bit puzzled/conflicted about the women of color who answer no. I mean...huh? Are you the "friend" all the republicans have? Are you just thaaaat chill? Trying to be nice? Ok with it if it's from people in your own group? (that I get, though I wouldn't necessarily classify in-group jokes as racist anymore than if classify queers talking about lesbian second dates as homophobic). Help?
