Just got a mild smack down for something I didn't even realize was obnoxious and now I'm ready to cry.
Aw, what happened, babe?
::hugs Barb hard::
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

[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.

“Not dead yet!”
It was stupid, really-- just an email exchange where one friend sent a link to several of us--
I responded that yeah, I'd already seen it (it was the twelve year-old kid from the next round of auditions for Britain's Got Talent) and she responded "Yes, sweetie, we know you know everything and have seen everything first. You win. *g*"
Just kind of startled me. I know she's stressed and under a deadline, but I got the distinct impression she was slapping me down for having more time than her at the moment.
I'm probably just hormonal.

Um, Barb? I don't think you were the obnoxious one in that exchange.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
...er, no, she was being a snippy cow.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
...er, no, she was being a snippy cow.
Yeppers.

All is well that ends in pizza.
What they said.
The *g* does not excuse her statement to you. Definitely lashing out.

WHAT THE SMART GIRLS SAID. And who is it? Now I want to do some smacking.

Random thought for the moment:
Is "never" a contraction of "not ever"?

Thanks guys-- I mean, I know I was overreacting and had nothing to feel apologetic for, but like I said it startled me. And when I emailed back, "Uh... sorry?" she responded,
Sorry I was just LOL because every email you send starts with “Yes, I already saw that.” So I give up! You are the goddess of internet/pop culture! Will stop sharing boring, old stories. *g* Am lame, behind the times girl. Sigh.
Which, really? Didn't make me feel any better because again, I felt like she pointing out that I have all this free time she doesn't have and while she may not have meant it, it had the net result of making me feel like a futless loser.

About 1000 years ago, it was: [link]
