I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I'll check it out. Financial circumstances have forced me back here but I'm trying to regroup and get out of here as soon as I can.

You are doing the right thing for yourself. It will be even sweeter if you use the opportunity to let go of everything you can. Double win for you!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Perkins, I just saw. All good thoughts to you.

I say... a lot of things y'all mentioned. Starting sentences with "dude." I use totes, sometimes totes magoats. Anyhoo and hoodle. Certain things I say in other languages without realizing, like poftim, davai, asha.

One thing that bugs me is that my coworker says "hadz" instead of "has." like, how is that tricky? It's three letters! She makes it more phonetically complicated! WTF?

I've used bitca in conversation. Not proud.

Hahaha!

I've had to hold myself back from saying "craxy".

Always Anti-fascist!

For somebody who writes for a living, I rely on junior high habits too much. Like "like" and "kinda" and "dude,"(although Rachel Maddow does that one, too, so I feel better about it.) Or even "I'm all "As in, I'm all "What's his problem?" so I give him a look. So he's like "Whatever, bitch." My parents are so proud. But they like it better than cornerspeak.

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

I think I have different verbal and written tics. I try to make my posts sound like I would say them, but then I also go back and edit to make sure I don't sound like an illiterate jackass.

She wouldn't know a lolcat if it baked her a cookie and eated it. It's just the way she talks. Only person I've ever heard say it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I love all the tics and the pet peeves! My pet peeve is "Where are you AT?" My ear always tweaks when I hear that "AT."
