How is my smile twin doing?
I already know what I'm gonna call her. Got a name all picked out...

[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.

Aww Lilty, maybe wait until 5:01.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
You'll all be soooo jealous when I say I've got an antique Royal typewriter displayed in my Wall of Books with some other antique technology
Yeeesssss jellissss. Mine is a blue Smith Corona Classic from the 70s. Not really an antique. Many a teenage manifesto was written on it.
I was very disappointed when I realized that the labels don't stick to the kind of plastic that the label maker is made of, so I couldn't put a "Label Maker" label on it.
I heart this so much.

My unreasonable love for Royal manual typewriters goes back to teenage days when I suddenly had unlimited access to my grandpa's old Royal. I learned how to type lightning fast on that old thing, which required speed, accuracy, and strength. Still hit the keys way too hard. Shows my age, I reckon.

Lilty, I would have said sarcastic things to the person telling me that. I don't do well with arbitrary schedules and punching clocks, never have.

In college I'd be typing on my old manual Smith Corona, and my roommate said once "Where's the power cord?" "It doesn't have one." She brought in people to watch how fast I typed.

Oh yeah... typing too fast and the keys tangling together and having to pry them carefully apart... the carriage return and the ding! So very satisfying. Even if carbon paper was horrible to use.

Carbon paper was a miraculous step up from mimeograph, for me.
