Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

It's official, the Blue Angels scare Loki and Pumpkin. Flyover again and they came running out to me in a panic.

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

"Dont attack me" seems like a very clear guideline to avoid a nut shot. If a guy can't follow that simple rule then he is the only one to blame for any damage to the junk.

Simon Callow was utterly charming. I wish the entire morning had been him telling stories but I had to sit through a boring meeting about websites and social media strategy.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

What you're doing here MIGHT COMPROMISE THEIR MASCULINITY. And, see, there are some things you don't do, even in self defense.

I believe the "Don't say vagina" rule is based on similar logic. Only men are allowed to use that kind of language.

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

What does "I threw it on the gound!" mean? There's a pin of it here: [link]

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

So, I would agree you shouldn't kick a man in his penis or balls if he isn't attacking you, your friend, or your family.

If I am defending myself, any and all manner of attack I will use. go fuck yourself.

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

Can we add attacking people and provoking self-defense to the list of things that you just don't do?

Yes, he's the Dalai Papa and he's got a brand new bag of nonviolence.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And, see, there are some things you don't do, even in self defense.

I seriously want to kick in the nuts anyone who would actually say that.

I got an OK pedicure with coral polish, and got grey AND silver polish at CVS, which was both cheap and quick-dry, two of my favorite things.

Also saw The Avengers again, and there were a couple of people in there seeing it for the first time! Also a group of at least 10 little kids who came in late with three adults. As they walked in, the woman said as loudly as possible, "IS THIS THE MOVIE?? DID IT START ALREADY??" Audience: "Yes." Lady: "WHAT TIME DID IT START???" Audience: "11:10!" Lady: "OH! I THOUGHT IT WAS ELEVEN SOMETHING ELSE." A minute later, Lady: "IS THIS THE X-MEN??" Audience: "THE AVENGERS!!" OMG, I thought I was going to kill someone. The kids got settled in really quickly, but only had about an hour and a half in them, after which many of them got up, came back, started talking, etc. Good times.

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

I'ma go with "If you don't want to be kicked in the balls, don't start fights."

Kicking someone in the balls unprovoked? Definitely Not Okay. But it's not necessarily worse than kicking someone anywhere else.

Sue! I had no idea Nova Scotia was such a magic place: [link]

Sadly, I don't think it's actually a library and a pub...But Nova Scotia is a magical place!

My friends and I were brainstorming a name if I opened a pie shop and we all kind of were keen on The Piebrary for quite a while. (Sadly, I think World of Pie may win out.)
