I knew I should've laid off the gamma rays yesterday.
But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

Ok, Matilda saying, "Oh,this is really unfortunate" is awesome.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Hec just tried to tilt the shower head, and the whole thing snapped off in his hand.
HEC SMASH.
We lost the second-to-last espresso machine the same way - he turned the handle to get the steamer going, and snap.
Though, to be fair, the second-to-last espresso machine was mostly plastic, and it looks like the shower head is the same way. Lots of faux chrome coating, but no actual metal, so ultimately doomed to snap like a twig from the very beginning.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Yeah, but you make the giant green rage work for you.

Hee! It's like Giles turning into a Fyarl demon and busting shit up because he has no idea of his strength!
(Yup, I just mixed fictional strong monsters. Go with it.)

Pix, how is your poor head feeling after that awful night? And is the dog non-stinky, or is she the least of your concerns right now?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Heh.
Hey, did people know the guy from Revenge is British? I just saw him on Ellen. And by "the guy," I mean the rich boyfriend, what's his name?

Also, if I start test-baking this weekend, for a party that's a month away, cupcakes should freeze OK, right? I won't frost them or anything.

JZ, my head feels a lot better, thanks. The whiplash is going to be the more persistent problem, but I have an appointment at noon with my chiropractor. The dog is beyond stinky still. I don't think getting her un-stinkified is going to be a home job, but she's the least of my worries.
Honestly, I'm just really glad it wasn't worse.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Is there any case where a blasphemy law is a good thing?
Some person on Slashdot sez:
When a statue in Mumbai began to miraculously drip tears, huge crowds began to gather, pray, and collect the water in vials. Sanal Edamaruku has exposed such bogus miracles before, and when he was called in, his investigations showed that it was nothing more than a nearby drainage. The entire investigation was caught on tape. The priests were outraged and demanded an apology. When he refused, a case of 'blasphemy' was registered at the police station and they now want to have him arrested.
