And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I read most of Dianetics, but the "If you don't understand this it's because you're not smart enough to be in our cult" language just irritated the shit out of me and I wound up skimming a lot.

I made it about halfway through Battlefield Earth, which is how I know that the movie is one of the most faithful adaptations of all time, but that should not be construed as a recommendation for either one.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've used the Neti pot a few times, but the one time I felt like I really needed it, that water didn't get through! Oy.

ION, I have a pot roast in the oven!

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

I got all the way through Battlefield Earth on bloodymindedness and and my pathological need to find out how a plot is resolved.

Couldn't make myself watch the movie, though.

the one time I felt like I really needed it, that water didn't get through!

That's why I don't use mine when I'm really stuffed up, fear of adding to the problem. And when my sinuses are fine and clear, I don't think to use it. Every once in a while the stars align just right and I feel like it could help.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Are you including Over Sea, Under Stone as part of the series?

DOH! That's the one I meant, the first one.

I may have to seize the cat.

DOH! That's the one I meant, the first one.

Yeah. If you look at Gothic Charm School carefully you'll note Jilli doesn't even include that one on the list. My mom also tends to omit it when talking about the series, but I knew it was first and it was one of those things where I had to read them in order. Because that's the kind of person I am.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

What's wrong with Over Sea, Under Stone? It's a nice classic riddle quest thing.

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

Vendor just called me eye-ta. Don't want his product anymore.

It's really boring? I'm reading the series for the first time and it made me not care about continuing, but everyone in Literary encouraged me and I did like the second one far better. Greenwitch is up next but I have some other stuff to get through first.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I don't? Huh. Of course, that's the one that always slips my mind, so that's probably why I didn't include it.

Feh. I have horrible cramps, and am mood-swinging between the states of ennui, woe, and wanting to cause people's heads to explode with the power of my mind.

It is not boring! It has Merlin and the Holy Grail and a dog!
