still has that relationship with Faith, which is real and warm and totally not evil.
That's one of the reasons I love Spike. He's a total bad-ass, except his flaw is he's too human. It's his ability to love that's sorta' a reverse tragic-flaw....
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Overnight I seem to have traded my migraine for the ability to breath through my nose. Joy.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Suzi, in my opinion, that's trading up. It's always been easier for me to unstuff my nose than to vanquish a migraine.

True, Teppy, true. I want to go to karate today, I have 2 hours of class, but if I can't use my nose, it is going to be difficult. Yes, it would have been impossible with the migraine.
CJ and I are meeting up with Nicole and her DH to see Wicked tonight! I'm very excited.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Since I solved it, I've been thinking about my unconscious assumptions that initially prevented me from figuring it out. (Which is interesting to think about.)
Dammit, I couldn't get past the assumption that the first step would be to weigh four on each side.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Me either, P.-C. Hardest part of getting rid of initial assumptions is seeing them!

It's annoying because for the second weigh, I understood the principle that you can gain information by leaving balls out of the weigh, but I didn't think to apply that same logic to the first weigh, where I assumed that More Balls = More Information.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist
You have eight balls all of the same size 7 of them weigh the same, and one of them weighs slightly more. How can you find the ball that is heavier by using a balance and only two weighings?
That came to me instantly, which is unusual. Maybe I've heard it before.

Our wings are not tired.
I figured it out but want to read everyone's whitefont. How do I do that on an iPhone?

I know I've heard it or something like it before, but I forgot how it worked. The version I remember was with coins, though. I think it was here, even.
