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.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

[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.

I think they'll be offering you a decent deal to stay with them, Aims.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

They did. They lowered my now monthly rate by $5 for the next 12 months, but my promo rate was going to go up to $170 on 9/1/09, so I'm happy.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I will have to call. The last time I asked them whether they were offering any sort of competing discounts in the face of AT&T Uverse, they were all, "Well, you're not under a contract, we don't care if you leave." Maybe they're feeling the pressure now?

I called Comcast last week to ask if they could fix a glitch on my dvr, and while they couldn't do anything about that, they did end up giving me $30 off my cable tv bill for the next six months. I could have gotten it locked in for the next year, but I didn't want to have to sign anything just in case I get laid off and have to cancel my cable completely.

Comcast wouldn't give me any kind of deal when our promo rate was running out and, in fact, tried to sell me a more expensive package. Idjits.

I may be slightly evil. I put about twice the usual amount of cat food into the treat toys,

I tried treat toys with Mr Peabody. He is a very direct little dog. He just chewed through the toy.

“Not dead yet!”

What do I have to make the obnoxious person next to me stop trying to talk to me?

I find violence works.

I may not be in a great mood right now, so take that with a grain of salt.

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

I should try this toy. I think my little Boo Bear (Casper) would love it. Yes, the Casper love affair continues - he's just the sweetest, cuddliest, most adorable little guy! Bianca and momo are not chopped liver (love them), but they are just not as cuddly and interactive as baby Boo. Is this true of female vs. male cats in general?

I think this is a faculty change we could all believe in:
