[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.

My "nephew" popped out a year and two weeks ago tomorrow, weighing in at over 12 lbs. His momma was, uh, not in a good state for a long while after. On the bright side, her active labor was only 3 hours....apparently that big they pop out faster than expected. She didn't have time to get an epidural.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Um. Does anyone know why SciFi channel changed to SyFy?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

They wanted to seem cooler.

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 assume just to annoy us.

oh, there was a whole thing about it. I believe that our general consensus was that it was crap, but whatever. i will call it SciFi until I die. or get lazy because SyFy has fewer letters.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I think we should refer to it as the Mansquito Channel.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

They wanted more of an audience, so they figured they would add some non-sci-fi programming. Plus their executives are crack-addled wombats.

Mansquito Channel.

Or Anonymous Rex. That was a classic. Well, no. It was awful. But charmingly so.

I used to pronounce it Skiffy, but now I just look at it balefully. Perhaps it should be the Channel that Shall Not Be Named.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Kristin, that dress is lovely! Much ~ma for your Grandmother.

Mansquito Channel it is.

The whole ADD pausing thing? Very much shows up a point my therapist once made, ages ago. She said the great thing about the ADD mind is that it sees all the possibilities - the challenge is to figure out how to narrow all those possibilities down to a more manageable number. I sometimes pause in the middle of a line of reasoning to re-examine some of the options, and that can derail my end of a conversation.

My day at work was... interesting. There was bleeding, and also screaming. Oddly, the two were totally unrelated. One of the residents sometimes does not clot properly - so a teeny tiny little scratch can result in what seems like arterial, rhythmic spurting. Luckily today's incident was not that bad. But still, I'm a little tired of say, "No, no, please leave your bandage alone." The screaming lasted for a good hour, and was essentially a temper tantrum. So I have taken an aspirin/Tylenol/caffeine cocktail.
