Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

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

cereal: P-C doesn't read FanFic or Procedurals, I see. I think that chart has been crossposted enough that it should just go in Press.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ha. I do not. I just ran across it.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

The good thing about Pasta Pomodoro is that if I get the right combo of appetizers I can get a good meal without get a giant carb fest. So it can be diabetic friendly.

Plus I wanted to make Vortex feel better.

thank you, ita, it's appreciated. I've decided that I will assuage my longing by eating the leftovers of my pork ragu from last week (in the freezer). I am however, not motivated to make pasta on a weeknight, so will have to be whatever I've got in a box.

Dana posted it in Fic, and I had to crosspost it to Procedural just because of all the shows it was talking about, plus the explicit NCIS:LA manpain shoutout.

It's pretty funny.

Ha. I have "fresh" tortellini frozen and ready to boil up to prepare for lunch tomorrow and the next day. I will totally do that on a weeknight, because I can improvise the sauce. You, NSM with the quick impro I'm thinking.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Somewhere there are Philistinians who are very offended with this turn of phrase, I'll have you know.

I'll apologize to the first 10 or so who text me.

But is it recent or really old?

The spate seems recent, including when I saw it on LJ. I'm not sure what the source is. Dana probably knows. She knows things.

McSweeney's Cruel Nicknames for Overweight Vampires.

Dick Cheney is just wrong.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

It's from about a week ago. Ancient in fannish terms!

It was also linked in metafandom, or the discussion that spawned it was.

The Daily Mail is the unthinkiest linkiest paper. I could click around their right hand navigation photos forever, and I don't know a third of those people. But I'm coming up to speed.

Yeah, no shit.
