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

Also, I bought a car. 2013 Mazda2

Congrats, sarameg. The Mazda 2 is cute!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

At the financial firm where I work, they're fairly adamant about the difference between adviser and advisor. I'm not sure if it's a style thing or if there's some regulatory reason behind it.

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

Consuela, every time I think your job can't get more screwy, it does, even at the end.

What she said, sheesh!

Always Anti-fascist!

I think you should dedicate that song by Cee Lo to them. (one of my favorite You-Tubes is "Fuck You" narrated in ASL.)

At the financial firm where I work, they're fairly adamant about the difference between adviser and advisor.

Which is?

Brenda, I was trying to look it up, and I think that 'adviser' carries more implication of fiduciary responsibility per ERISA and the like. Anyhow, we use advisor with an O.

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

I almost always use "advisor" - but my sole use is to describe a relationship between a faculty member/staff member to a student.

I have not used that term any other way.

I've seen the spelling "adviser" re: political advisers, but for some reason "advisor" has more of an academic feel. Like Advisor is an actual title and an Adviser is someone who just sticks their 2 cents in.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

So Balticon is this weekend. Should be fun. Unfortunately I have a snot monster in my head. With luck this will clear up quickly.
