Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I suddenly feel compelled to buy an old six-string at the five and dime.

I'm sorry, but for that reference I *must* point and say DORK! DORK!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What Steph said. I felt dorkish just recognizing it.

What is even happening?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Spybot won't update, a problem that dates to before this virus. Downloaded a new version, still won't update. Virus checker swears there's nothing wrong. Ad-Aware swears there's nothing wrong. Cable company swears there are no network problems.

I'm just swearing.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Why bother? Jimmy will just quit and Jody will get married.

(The dork is a given for an overwhelming number of us. I think ita and Deb Grabien may be our only exceptions.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Good call, Cindy.

We are dork. They will be assimilated.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That song is not dorky!
