[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Also, just had my usual "ugh" experience of going to pick up some quizzes from the printer room, and having to look at all the pro-gun signs that the guy who runs the printing stuff has on the wall next to where we pick stuff up. Including "Gun Control: Experts Agree It Works!" with pictures of Hitler and Pol Pot and a bunch of others.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Yeah, we have a neighbor with a bumper sticker that reads: "The Second Amendment: America's ORIGINAL Homeland Security!" Someone with an attitude like that, I don't want to criticize. (Plus, Northside really needs at least a couple of right-wingers to balance out all the crunchy Green Party types and the abortion-loving, latte-drinking run-of-the-mill Democrats.) (Seriously, in the last presidential election, I did feel sorry for Gun Nut Neighbor* because, in a vast sea of Obama signs, he had a Romney sign, way back behind a fence.)
*We have 2 neighbors with the same first name: the gun nut and a guy who sits on his front porch and whittles. So we have dubbed them "Gun Nut Ron" and "Whittling Ron." Not to their faces. But they're both retired, so I usually see one or both of them when I take a walk, so if I have anything to report to Tim, I have to clarify which Ron I mean, so they got descriptors attached to their names. (I haven't seen Whittling Ron in a while. I hope he's okay.)

I mostly just don't really like having to see a picture of Hitler (along with a totally wrong argument) whenever I go to pick up copies.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hil, that sounds like the definition of a "hostile work environment."

That's very Park and Rec.
Since 2004, I have had no sympathy at all for wrong-headed fuckwittery. Don't care if I find you personable: I have no sympathy if your party affiliation sells me down the river. None.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
In the nearly 10 years that we have been together I have managed to turn TCG into an Italian food snob. Last night's dinner was not very good, and we are reminded that while my in-laws can usually be trusted on recommendations for a good restaurant, we should not trust them when it comes to Italian restaurant recommendations.

I think I've discovered why I stopped reading. Apparently, if you wear the reading glasses, it makes it fun again. I've spent the morning reading. Haven't even eaten yet. Crazy. Like I was a kid again.

Yay, glasses! What are you reading?
