I know, I'm kind of afraid to turn it back on. What if I jinx them?

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
It's a conundrum.
The internet is leading me to believe it is specifically a San Diego thing. Epic, Cass, care to weigh in?
It's definitely southern Southern California as a thing. Along with fish tacos. And a specific type of taco shop.
9 is a legit grown up bedtime tonight.
Agreed. But I usually try to sleep like it's my job: 9-5.
9 is totally a valid bedtime. My roommate and I are both going to bed now. I got 5 hours sleep last night (danced until 3AM) but although I got up, didn't end up taking any of the classes (I watched a couple of them). Between that and this stupid ever-worsening cold, I'm exhausted. (And she tweaked her back, so I gave her muscle relaxants and we watched Top Model (which is super ridiculous these days))
I really wish I could get my memory back, now. I'd at least like to know which of our shit is dishwasher safe.
Is there such a thing as non-sexual furries? My BFF has been taking her daughter, who cod plays to some local cons, and they have learned the word furry. They kept calling their little 4 year old niece who was dressed up like a furry unicorn a "furry" and it was really weird to me.
IIRC, there are lots of furries who say it isn't sexual for them at all. t edit But it seems creepy and weird to apply that term to a little kid, regardless, considering that it is generally associated with unusual sexual proclivities.
Thanks. I can't decide whether to tell them the connotation of the word (or possibly, the word has a different connotation in the world of 15 year old cosplayers?) But I can tell the mom at least has NO IDEA that it could be taken sexually-- she was shouting "Look, t little niece is a furry!"
Ugh. I don't even know how I would bring that up tactfully. "Well, actually...that word has a different connotation than you think, so you might want to be aware of the scenarios you use it in."
