It's a really great quote.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Suzi, B sounds much more together than KCD, at least
I adore B and have told her so. Most of the time, when KCD flips out over something, I can brush it off. Or I'll text her and double check that she is chill about whatever the issue is.

On the awesome webcomics front, I'd highly recommend Emily Carrol's work for both the storytelling and the gorgeous artwork: [link]

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I think I'm going to take my lunch break at your office, sara. I never took the flamethrower out of the car from the last time.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This is cool:
First Flight of the Phantom, Aerial Footage of NYC Captured With a Quadcopter (The quadcopter in question is a small radio-controlled drone.)
Except the person who made this flew his quadcopter over pedestrians and traffic. I'm not sure I'd want to take that risk with my quadcopter.

It was just a security alert and an aftk. Hmph.
But the urinal in the bathroom across the hall went batshit again and flooded the bathroom, like it does every couple of weeks.
