Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've had fine customer service from Comcast, but my actual service, not so much.

Given the number of times my DVR decides not to record something, if it weren't for On Demand, I would have cancelled everything long ago.

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

My Time-Warner DVR does something interesting: it never records Judge Judy at the correct time. always 1-5 min late.

No tech; cuddle puddles; hugs; vegan and gluten-free camp food; '80s-style prom

Apparently you don't have to die to go to hell.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Apparently you don't have to die to go to hell.

It's somebody's idea of heaven.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

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

No tech; cuddle puddles; hugs; vegan and gluten-free camp food; '80s-style prom

That was slightly more fun when it said 80s-style porn. I mean, some of the other stuff made more sense.

horrifying.

Also, what is WRONG with people? That is not merely rhetorical.

NO. Also, speaking as one of the extrovert tribe: cuddle puddles?! I think it is safe to say that if, by some horrible twist of fate I found myself at that hell camp, I would not be moved to cuddle with any of the type of people who would want to be there.

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

You know, the only prom I ever went to was during the 80s, but I don't know what "'80s-style prom" means.

80s-style porn, otoh, pretty easy to imagine.

80s style prom

I think a place to give up tech would be ok - but give up bacon too? I don't think so
