I always wanted to be an oppressed minority as a kid because they got extra toys at Christmas. No, I was not very highly evolved as a child. But man, I was jealous when the church choir I was in sang at the Salvation Army at Christmas, because of the pile of cool toys. I sometimes wonder how I managed to live so long so totally unaware of things.
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

[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.

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

Curious. It seems if you have your earbuds in, waiting for a call on the iPhone, people think your listening to music and assume you can't hear them. Interesting.

Also overheard today: some undergrads talking about how Doogie Howser, MD, would never be aired now, because it's so full of sexual references that people back in 1989 just didn't notice or understand.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I've never watched Doogie, but doesn't every generation think that previous generations were more naive sexually?

When we lived next door to the frat boys, we once heard them shushing each other while talking loudly, saying if they said "fuck" so loud it would shock the neighbors. I was like, oh, those naive boys.

Doogie had a best friend, Vinny, who, in the tradition of sitcom best friends, would always enter Doogie's room by climbing a tree and coming in through the window. It seems that there were several episodes where Vinny came in when Doogie wasn't home, and while waiting for him, fell asleep on Doogie's bed. The guys discussing this all thought that this meant that Doogie and Vinny were gay.

and as we learn now, Doogie is gay, and there is nothing wrong with that.

My coworker set up the camera on her iBook to record her dogs yesterday. So many mysteries solved! Who took the socks out of the laundry! Who ate the box of kleenex! Not solved: what precisely occasioned sitting in the middle of the living room howling for 15 straight minutes.

I was just talking to Hubby, who was idly wondering if his webcam on his laptop is on, because he doesn't really know how to check. "And you're wondering if you're being spied on?" I asked. "Well," he said, "all they're seeing is a fat, naked belly." "So if they're hacking into webcams in the hopes of finding naked girls who just happen to be in front of their computers, they're disappointed?" "Yup. Nothing but stretched out scars here."
