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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

And you also don't get points for waiting at the stop sign until I get there.

I sometimes do this. When I'm turning left and I know people blow through the opposite stop sign all the time, I wait to make sure they are, in fact, stopping. It's not being polite, it's fear.

The baby American Jesus can drink whisky from the cat bowl for all I care.

I need to look for opportunities to repeat this. Maybe have a stamp made up.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Bob Bob just made a FB joke-post about people wasting their lives writing YOLO on FB all damn day. [I had to ask what YOLO meant. I suspect it's mostly college students who do it.]

The county that Davis is in? I am so confused.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You know the story of the Feminist Frequency Kickstarter project, and how she's been so badly trolled by 4chan?

No, but I looked it up, and huh. I didn't look too deep into the actual trolling, but what the shit. Felicia Day recently got flamed for doing a music video where she identified as "Gamer Girl" and wore eyeshadow. Girls play games. Get over it, Internet.

What does YOLO stand for?

I just learned this at a comedy show on Tuesday! It stands for You Only Live Once.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I swear, I AM that person in a meeting. I wouldn't call me an asshole. Just really strict in guiding the discussion. Given some of the people I work with would happily go off on a hour long tangent turned rant turned 4 hours later, someone has to do it. Am I accused of being abrupt? Yes, but by god, meetings I run rampant over get to the point. And I'm not mean, unless you count friendly but professional but strict MEAN.

And that's when so-called jargon like "let's take that discussion offline" is so handy! Because you're not saying shut up, or it's not something worthwhile discussing - it's just not what we're here to discuss right now.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Don't.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I sometimes do this. When I'm turning left and I know people blow through the opposite stop sign all the time, I wait to make sure they are, in fact, stopping. It's not being polite, it's fear.

This is me. The denizens of New Orleans constantly find new and exciting ways to scare the proops out of me on the road, so I exercise a great deal of caution.

Yeah, when I was in New Orleans in January for work, I had a car that I used to commute to the Convention Center. Just taking Canal back and forth -- people are insane there. And you still can't turn left.
