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

Timelies all!

Just realized that it's three weeks until the big family trip and I still have a lot of things to get. That's what weekends are for, right?

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

So, I want to take vacation in September. New boss starts in September. Should I give her two weeks before I leave her to muddle through on her own? I don't think not being here during her first week would be good, but how long until she settles in should I expect to not have everything die if I'm not here?

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

You wouldn't want to know if sexxing (by) a clone is better than masturbation? That question would linger, and if you didn't want to tell, no one would be told.

Pretty handy.

Or something.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I'd have sex with my clone. At least I'd know exactly what I like! I would NOT have sex with a my twin. Nope, nope, nope.

And in a weird segue, but heartfelt....

All the surgery-ma for Grace, Kat.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am even more convinced about my answer to the clone question after watching Orphan Black. Maybe a duplicate of myself would be different? I still say no.

But seriously, you guys, an identical twin is the same thing as a clone. A fraternal twin is the same thing as any other sibling. Genetically, I mean.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Nope, nope, nope. No me, no my twin, no my clone, no anyone related to me. There are even a handful of celebrities of nigh-universally acclaimed hotness who I wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole because something about them sometimes reminds me of people I'm related to, and that's enough to hit my squick button.

I never got how a person's fantasy about doing it with twins wasn't gross for the siblings in the equation. Even if there wasn't any sibling on sibling action, just being in a general sexual situation with your sibling seems horrid.

If I was a lesbian and me and my brother both had the hots for the same girl, I would not be cool with seeing his O face.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

No me, no my twin, no my clone, no anyone related to me.

Not even by marriage?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am an only child, so I actually don't have the sibling squick much. One of my favorite books is Hotel New Hampshire. Although since reading one of his more recent books, I sort of wonder if John Irving was molested in some way .
