Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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.

Admiring Laura's segue. It's so light and airy.

Thank heavens I can snark here to my heart's content. And thank heavens for the Cancel button on Twitter. I keep wanting to inject snark into other people's conversations at times when it might be highly amusing to myself yet totally unhelpful to others.

Random woman in the grocery store just commented on my brace, "Oooh, you have an owie!"

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

I guess replying "Fuckin right I do bitch!" might have made her widdle head explode.

Our wings are not tired

Yeah, "It hasn't healed from when I kicked the last person who spoke to me that way." probably isn't a helpful response.

Always Anti-fascist!

If it's on the internet and I don't get it, I know it's a show I don't watch, baseball, or hockey

I shall roll my eyes forever at that sort of thing. ETA: this was in response to Hil.

You have to balance helpful with satisfying.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Totally stealing ND's line for the next time I'm in that situation. I'm sorry you had to deal with that, Hil.

I kind of forget about it during the winter, because when I'm wearing long pants, people can't really see the brace. And the past few weeks I was in NY and NJ, and I usually get a lot fewer comments there. I think the only time anyone mentioned it was when someone offered me a seat on the subway. The baby-talk comments seem to be specific to PA, of all the places I've lived. In DC, people would try to tell me about how prayer healed their brother-in-law's friend's aunt's sister.
