Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

[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.

The status is NOT quo.

Damn! I'm so sorry, Laga. I can't imagine anyone being more conscientious at work from what you've told me, though, so I'm confused. What on earth weren't you doing?

Can you at least file for unemployment?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Can you at least file for unemployment?

Oh yes. I'm encouraged to file for unemployment plus the severance and I had a huge amount of vacation pay owed me. Right now I have more money in the bank than I've ever had before.

You naked Skyped with him

There needs to be a portmanteau for this, like "sexting," but all I'm coming up with is "Skype-clad."

Yeah, I skype naked. That's my thing.

Yeah, I skype naked. That's my thing.

We can't tell if that's your thing if the camera is still above your waist.
