Undocumented
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

What phrase is used to denote a person who has entered the country without going through official channels?
AP style suggests avoiding such adjectives and instead saying how the person entered the country, e.g., Smith, who overstayed his student visa.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I went out to pick up lunch and failed to bring both my badge to get back into the building and my pyhone to call someone else to let me in. Luckily someone I knew was at reception at the other end of the building.
After I got stuck at the RR tracks watching a train move to and fro for about twenty minutes, blocking the road the whole time. I only seem to see this happening at this particular crossing, I don't know what it's about.
Anyway, my reuben is delicious, although it would benefit from the addition of beets.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Do we need to have a muffaletta-style debate about what constitutes a reuben? Because it is not beets.
Also, I would like a reuben. I've been thinking about sauerkraut ever since I didn't have it for New Year's.

It might make it less platonically reuben, I'll grant you that, but it would be delicious. Mmmm, red flannel hash in sandwich form.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Tasty sandwich, yes. Reuben, no.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

McGinty, who's Irish so no one cares.
(Massive undocumented Irish population in NYC. No one ever seems to give them much grief.)

OMG, just realized AP, not APA. So, um, hey, excellent source for APA, which is not what was asked for, at my links. Yeah, nuthin' to see here...
