Hell yes it matters. (Or, what Susan said.)
Spike: Ladies. Come on in. Plenty of blood in the fridge, don't be shy. Dawn: You mean like, real blood? Spike: What do you think? Dawn: Mostly I think, 'Eew!'
'Potential'
Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Oh! The How-To of the day on my Google homepage might interest some here.
It's like a guide to MacGyvering a small crossbow from objects at hand.

Speaking of which: Vote MacGyver in 2008!

I'm still reeling from the anti-southern bias. My dad, PhD in education, the man who raised me to be the enlightened (to whatever degree) person that I am, made a crack about spending too much time around Texans.
My brother in law made a crack about Hee Haw.
I'm appalled. Appalled!

Our wings are not tired.
Sean, it never, ever fails that when I mention to anyone that my folks (meaning my grandfather) are from North Carolina, some asshole starts to whistle the theme from Deliverance. I sometimes think fat people and Southerners are for dog knows what reason, the last two "safe" groups of people to mock.
And it makes me furious.
(I mock Nascar, but that's only because I am a Formula 1 fan, so it's my responsibility.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Well, the North gets mocked pretty soundly in the South, too. (According to several of the girls in my dorm at college, Northerners are all rude, spoiled know-it-alls. And possibly going to hell.)

Hmmmm. That's true. When I am visiting relatives in Texas, most of their Kerrville friends make fun of California. Actually, they make fun of San Francisco. We're all a bunch of "gay-loving hippies".

Okay. I did my taxes.
Phew

I've been the target of anti-northern bias from S herself no less. I call her on it, too.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Actually, they make fun of San Francisco. We're all a bunch of "gay-loving hippies".
Ahhh, yes, I remember my Boston co-worker asking me why I was moving to "San Fag Disco."
Though my favorite is meeting people who just presume that everybody who lives in a city is likely to be murderized the second they walk out the door. "I would never live in a city!"
