I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
For people who enjoy ASH and Karen Gillan and simultaneous Downtown/Sherlock/Oliver! parodies, I can't recommend the most recent NTSF:SD:SUV:: enough.

I live in Danskos, Suzi. Highly recommended!

The prices scare me though, Kate. It just doesn't make any sense to rent a car when I go to SLC. The light rail takes me from the airport to a block from work and a block from the hotel and there are lots of restaurants in between. My normal walking shoes don't work with business attire, so I need to upgrade.
It is funny though, the project I work on would pay for a rental car each trip. And the cost for one visit would likely be the cost of a pair of Danskos.

The prices are high, but the shoes are definitely good value -- I wear mine day in, day out, and they hold up very well. (I also don't buy a lot of shoes, so I don't mind paying more for a decent pair when I need them.) I bought one pair in 2003 or 2004, and they lasted until my honeymoon in 2011 -- and even then, the only reason I had to dump them was that they had been so thoroughly damp for so long that they were starting to get moldy. Bought a replacement pair last year and I love them; like I said, I barely wear any other shoes. They're comfy, durable, and cute, and well worth the money I paid for them.

You could. But that would make you crazy with their wrong headedness.

Uh-oh, Pix. Walk away! It's not worth your time or sanity!

And speaking of walking away... I love you all, but I've chosen darkness bedtime.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What does the sentence "half the population was decimated" even supposed to mean??? Within context it's nu-decimation, but still--I can't tell if that means almost half the people died (MASSIVE) or like a quarter (pretty fucking bad, but not a half, you know). LANGUAGE. WORDS.
