Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

[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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

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.

OK, I saw the "30 Day Planking Challenge" on Facebook. And I have decided to try it. Only, as heavy as I am and because I've never done that exercise before, my goal is to do it half the number of seconds stated in the challenge. I did the first one last night.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I haven't seen the planking challenge, but it sounds like the squats challenge. I'd recommend focusing on good form, WS, especially at first.

That's a good reminder, Burrell. And I think it is why I decided to dial back on the amount of time. At any rate I certainly did feel it in the muscle groups they show in the diagram. And I'm feeling it today, but just as a gentle amount of "heh, that's right I tried a new exercise yesterday" ache rather than "Oh Em Gee, I can't move today after yesterday's new exercise!"

Our wings are not tired.

That sounds like the appropriate amount of discomfort. I haven't seen that one yet, but I haven't really been on the FB that much either. Hours in the day issue.

Oh my g-d, THE CHOMPING!!!!!

My current roommate is a temp. A friend of a friend, who is moving out here from New York. He transferred out here to be the regional sales manager, and he's been renting my extra room for a couple of months while he finds a place of his own.

He's a nice enough guy, and we've gotten along okay, BUT HE FUCKING CHOMPS WITH HIS MOUTH OPEN WHEN HE EATS!!!!!!

And he works from home.

And OH MY G-D, it took me exactly ZERO SECONDS to go from normal to OMGMURDERMURDERKILLKILLKILL the first time he did it. He's moving out in a couple of weeks, but it cannot come fast enough, even though now I need a new roommate again already.

And he has a live in girlfriend (not here, she's back in NY, getting ready to move out here). I do NOT understand how she hasn't murdered him yet.

Also this guy hawks loogies in the shower, even though my shower currently has a bad drainage problem that the landlord is taking forever to fix and you have to shower in a three in puddle of standing water. WHY WOULD YOU FUCKING DO THAT???????

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

He's a perfectly nice guy, if a little odd. And by odd, I guess I mean "normal." He doesn't do sci fi or fantasy of any kind. He's not a gamer. He had no idea what a "death star" was, when I started trying to read him the "Open Letter From the Death Star Architect Who Put the Exhaust Ports on the Death Star." He's never seen or read The Hobbit, or the Lord of the Rings movies.

He likes bluesy rock and roll, and classic rock. It's about the only thing we can connect on.

BUT OMG THE CHOMPING!!!! MURDERDEATHKILL!!!!!

Okay, that is actually not normal.
