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.

Oh, Epic, that is very sad. I'm sorry about your friend.

Always Anti-fascist!

Look, dude on twitter, I'm so sorry the mean dead woman from Texas(Ms. Molly, of course) let you know that members of the powerful classes that you defend so passionately aren't usually funny--well, not on purpose. The best satire really does come from the bottom up.(He's very upset that some sort of lack of permission is being implied there and I think he's insane.) Just mocking people overall is not really satire is it?

Yeah, satire is a very specific subset of mocking people.

Sometimes, it's not even life or death conversations on social networking that come down to "You don't know what words mean."

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I made another appointment with my doctor, because my coughing is getting worse again. I am so sick of this.

erika, if your eyes fall out of your head and roll around on the floor, I will help you dust them off again.

Hil, I'm starting to ponder smiting your doctor. I suppose it isn't really incompetance on his part, but really, you could use... well, not House. But someone like the guy I went to when I was a kid.

Every time I go, she does give me stronger drugs. It's not like she's not treating me. It's just that none of the treatments are working.

She's also never seen me when the cough is really bad. I'm usually not coughing too much in the morning, but as the day goes on, it gets worse, especially on teaching days when I've got to be taking deep breaths while I'm lecturing, and I'm inhaling a ton of chalk dust. But with the way my schedule is, and the way the schedule at the doctor's office is, I can only see her in the morning.

Egads, chalk dust in this day and age? Blerg. Is it possible to get an appointment later in the day, or is that just impractical?
