Forgot to post this earlier. Ooops.
A different exercise in jargon, but it still makes me laugh. The 1982 special Christmas sketch from Yes, Minister.
Spike: You pissed in the Big Man's Chair? That's fantastic! Gunn: Spike, can you please turn off that warm fuzzy? Spike: What, the Lorne thing? Worn off. I just think that's bloody fabulous.

Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.
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.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Hey. New board.
We'll the six year old woke a 2:30 am and basically didn't sleep again. So... Merry Christmas.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I'm so sorry, Shir. Much love and a gentle passage to Batcat.
Merry unexpectedly early Christmas, Gris (and, 6-year-old, please have some mercy on your poor parents!). I'm about to go back to bed myself; no one else is close to being up and moving, and I've just been waiting for an anxiety dream to fade so I can nod off again for the last little bit of the night.

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
Sometimes if I make up a good ending for the anxiety dream my brain will resolve it and go back to sleep.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Woke up at 6:30 to a loud crash/bang sound that rattled the house -- turns out there was an explosion at an apartment building downtown, a couple of miles away. As far as I can tell, there are a few injuries but no fatalities, thank god, but the building is basically destroyed. Unbelievable.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I'm sorry, Shir. My condolences.

Shir, I’m so sorry.

Condolences, Shir. So hard.
Kate that’s awful! The poor people living there!
My dog wanted me to wake up half an hour ago but begrudgingly let me sleep until 745. Thanks dog.
