I think that in Yiddish, "Laga" means "you would be a fool to not go out with me."
Where's the praising and extolling of my virtues? Where's the love?

[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.

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

My neighborhood's community council meeting was tonight (think Gilmore Girls town council, only full of hipsters, gay people, Damn Liberals(TM), vegans, hippies, vegan hippies, and old black ladies who no one EVER sasses).
One of the many, MANY reasons why I love my neighborhood: the best damn 4th of July parade is going to be green this year -- any cars that enter have to pay a $10 fee (Vespas and hybrid cars are $5).
One MORE reason I love my neighborhood: as a fundraiser for the food pantry, our awesome local bakery is going to organize a grilled cheese sandwich cook-off similar to this: [link] Three categories of sandwiches: regular (i.e., orange cheese, white bread, butter), fancy (i.e., swanky -- or skeezy -- cheeses, fancy bread, etc. [a David Smay grilled cheese]), and dessert (which fascinates me).
That is going to ROCK.

And oh, my god -- in perusing the grilled cheese invitational site, check out the picture I found: [link]

Heh. Having been to Rio's hair guy for a fabulously expensive cut some years ago, I can confirm that there is no way. But man I do want that shirt.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I'm pretty sure that "dork" isn't Yiddish.
Okay, but it does mean "dick."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Many of the terms we use to insult men are some variation on "dick": dick, dick head, knob, wanker, cock, putz, schmuck, jerk, jerk off, and so on.
And then there are the other body part insults, asshole and its variants being the chief alternative. And then I suppose there are the animals names.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
I started babbling about Heroes. She probably thinks I'm a TV obsessed loser.
...you're, um, probably talking to the wrong people here. I mean, that's kind of our mission statement, right?

All is well that ends in pizza.
I prefer to think of us as tv-obsessed winners.
YMMV.
