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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I use Buffista speak in emails at work all the time, and the peeps in my office seem to like it. I know I say great, amazing and awesome waaaaaay too much. I was worried they were going to edit together every time I said great on the TV show and make me look like a complete dope.

(flops on couch, sips more of the cucumber soda & Pinky vodka concoction.)

Facebook is good for marketing. Facebook is good for marketing. I need to keep reminding myself of that. (Guess who just went through the backlog of friends requests?)

Linda Holmes on "chick lit". So good.

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

Oy Jilli. Can I have sip by the way? That drink sound delish.

Kat, that is just wonky overreacting on their part. I would so be tempted to go start a discussion thread inquiring into the site's protocol for deleting threads. Except then I'd remember the grand drama that marked our shift from consensus to voting and would then have to go delete my new thread.

Is very tasty. I wish Pinky vodka was available in WA.

I hate the term chick lit almost as much as I hate the term literary fiction.

So does Linda Holmes. Which is what made the post interesting. I even read the comments (glutton that I am) and she gets all shirty with someone which makes me laugh.

I read the piece and have to agree with her, about chick lit anyway, not necessarily about Franzen.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

All your verbal tics are belong to me. I have them all. I am a slang sponge. And I totally start all my paragraphs with "So," to the point where I did that year in review first lines thing and I had to expand to first two sentences because all my first lines were just "So."

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

To be honest, shrift is awesome.
