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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I do nothing to counter the stereotype the GenX abuses the fuck out of the ellipsis, huh? Oh, well. I'll own it.
The ellipsis are our Precious.

I'm a fucking amazing catch!--Fiona Gallagher, Shameless(US)

If it weren't for my parens thing, I'd have an ellipsis thing.

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

Our wings are not tired.

Sheryl, I hope that Mr. S is placed in a school that is a good fit.

I heard on IPR of NPR in Iowa, say that the states picked their own songs for the roll call.

Yeah. But he walked out to "Small Town" by Mellencamp, which I loved.

I wonder if Bruce will show up this year? Seems like the zeitgeist has moved past having Springsteen at your rally.
