Don't worry, I'm not gonna start any sword fights. I'm over that phase.

Has this not been posted yet? Batman and Captain America save cat from burning house: [link] You can't make this shit up. AWESOME. (Watch the video at the link. It's SO worth it.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

When Bad things happen to Good people, we're here to help

I have every conviction (whatevs) that Dufflebag, Scofflaw, and Pumple, Esq know exactly how capitalisation really works, and they just prefer to have their ad look like the above (from Steph's link). And part of me thinks "Why not Things and People? Can't we be fake German enough???"

I think I just HUGELY fucked up at work, and I can't even verify it, and I just want to crawl into a hole and bawl. Unfortunately I need to go home for my foot's sake, and that's exactly what that will look like, and it needs not to. It needs to look like I can handle this like a grownup.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Burrell, I'm so sorry.

Amy, holy crap, I'm glad she's alive.

ita_!, go home and feel better, and may the screw-up not be as bad as you fear.

Relique is making me see the junk (junque) from my mother's house in new ways. I just texted my sister about it.

My mom and my step-dad used to have an little second-hand store called The Junque Store.

Overheard here at work: "Firefly, is that a new show?" "No, it's Joss Whedon, before he made the Avengers."

The wheel turns.

Ginger, that's exactly what I was thinking.

You have NO idea. I called up a manager and swore on his voicemail...and five minutes later realised I'd fucked up the one recoverable way that never needs to go any higher. I did get laughed at, but by someone at my level for not knowing his job better. WHICH IS FINE. I don't do his job. And I told him anything goes as long as the answer was "recoverable".
