I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
It would have to be an Abelian group, as most of us would need to commute.

I do think this thread has been much quieter because we did work our way (painfully, but thoroughly) through some of the larger issues.
Agreed. Definitely painful at times, but I think we've gotten a much better sense of how we want things to work, and can apply that to a lot of other stuff that's come up since then, without having to go through the same types of arguments each time. (I'm trying to figure out a way to say what I mean here without using the word "isomorphic," and I'm failing. There's got to be some word that means "having the same structure" that isn't quite so math-centric, right?)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
"Similar"?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Yes. Thank you. (Trying to figure out that word would have bothered me all night.)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Finally, someone appreciates my work!

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty
I want baby eating in the thread title.
Or advance does Yoda.
Whatever. But not spaz, please-- it's one thing for Bitches to be reclaiming the word Bitch, but I don't get the same positive sense from the use of spaz. In the thread, one thing; in the title, another.
So I'd like the softer side of Yoda eating babies, instead.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
"Who said that? ME. Who? ME!"
I love this one.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I favor Huh.
Also, I'm fine with the discussion, and fairly predictably, I oppose Hec's proliferation (mwah to Hec). Don't think we need a thread that will sit unused except for during specific events.
