Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

Now she's crying because the guy is going to cut her hair.

What the hell? Does he have a picture of Sinead O'Connor taped to his mirror? Why would a haircut be cause to cry?

I just read a tweet that said: "now I understand the controversy and the warnings: Ghazi is Arabic for Batman"

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Have you never watched What Not to Wear? Or America's Next Top Model? Makeovers are never successful for Tyra unless someone has a breakdown.

I'm just happy when a women gets a makeover and she DOESN'T fret about how her husband will react.

I can see why the horrible results of one might be cause to cry after the fact (hey, I've gotten a no-sideburns monstrosity that gave me an unfortunate resemblance to Moe Howard on one occasion), but beforehand at just the prospect? I thought only toddlers did that.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Matt, women are can be very emotionally attached to their hair. I was sick of my waist-length hair for about 2 years before I was finally ready to cut it (and have now, sorta accidentally, grown it back out again). If somebody had cut it before I felt ready, I would have wept buckets - as it was I think I misted up a bit.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh yeah, that was me. (And then I went way overboard the other way and was addicted to pixie cuts for about ten years. And now it's long again. But chopping it off that first time was a HUGE deal.)

"now I understand the controversy and the warnings: Ghazi is Arabic for Batman"

HA!

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

I just made an ice cream cake for my daughter's birthday. It's in the freezer. I realize this still puts me several levels below Kat and Cash in terms of birthday cakes, but I'm feeling pretty proud right now.
