Hey, I should totally read a long fanfic written in the 2nd person POV of someone who feels they are dealing inadequately with their mother's cancer. I don't know if I'd have noticed warnings, but it was well written enough that I'm a gibbering wreck, therefore it's pie for dinner, not chicken. It was a silly man who once said "'Cause, you know, they're, uh they're just doughnuts. They're not love." I love me some pie.
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

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

Pie is love. But I will not read that story.

Pie is love.
Indeed. I could make a pie tonight, if I got off the couch now.
... not sure I'm going to do that, though.
Y'all need some cheering up; here, have a story in which James Bond and Clint Barton go fishing in Scotland for evil HYDRA agents: [link]

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
For the last few weeks, I've felt like a ball of non-specific malcontent, work wise, but today it started getting more specific.
I just love this phrasing. Love it. Clearly I have experienced this - the process and the sentiment.

It's a great story, brenda, but good call. There's an amount of "dredged up" even a bad writer can accomplish, and this is a good writer.

Wow, so not going near that story. Nope, nope, nope.

I don't know when is enough space for the story--given that it's a ship story, it's even sadder to read single.
Hey--if you were going to check 2 Broke Girls to see if they were serious about not being funny? Totes serious. Committed to edgy, settling for multiply offensive. I want to believe that Kat Dennings cries herself to sleep in her 1000 thread sheets. Seriously--I think the short Asian guy just shat his pants in the cafe.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Yeah, really not reading that story.
But I happily clicked to Bond and Barton. Off to read!

Didn't make it out for dinner because work. Was starving and ordered room service 10 minutes ago. Now all of a sudden all I want is to go to bed. Too late to cancel it though, I think.
