You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

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

For the A-Cup Crowd, Minimal Assets Are a Plus. Seems like a hell of a generalisation. You can always find plenty of people who're unhappy with what they've got. But what really stood out for me was this paragraph:

Small-breasted women have also begun to express their anger on the Internet when they suspect one of their brethren has decided to artificially augment what nature has given her.

Seriously? I have to admit, I look askance at most elective cosmetic surgery, but I don't take it personally. Even when it's, say, a race thing. And I think a race thing is a much bigger deal than a breast size thing. So someone doesn't have boobs my size anymore. Oh, well.

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

I wish I'd had an ita for my bodyguard in elementary school.

Yeah. (Except high school for me.) Also, I totally loved the movie My Bodyguard as a kid.

And people wonder why I'm perfectly content to go days without seeing another human.

People suck. (I'm very tired and am in a rather cynical mood at the moment.)

There was the time a neighbor boy who hit me with a whip - yes, a goddam whip - in the back of the school bus until I cried, and nobody, not event the bus driver, who was my mother's cousin, said or did anything.

Okay, this person I would beat to a pulp. Non-consensual whipping is kind of a thing for me. Don't. You just...don't.

Portable hotspot is the best thing ever, especially when my flight has been delayed and I'm stuck at the airport waiting for my aircraft to arrive.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Small-breasted women have also begun to express their anger on the Internet when they suspect one of their brethren has decided to artificially augment what nature has given her.

Brethren? Do they even know what that word means?

In Jamaica we'd say sistren, but I don't know how mainstream that term has gotten.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

These days, schools are better at combating bullying, right?

The physical stuff, I think so. But the psychological stuff (name-calling, taunting, etc.) is still hard to deal with - harder now that the internet allows all sorts of nasty shit to said about people anonymously. Even if the victim avoids it, everybody else can read and share things that have been said/written.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Don't waste your breath getting outraged at a NYT trend piece, people! It's one outraged member of the IBTC!

I am outraged that flat chested women can ever be happy. Blasphemy. Don't even suggest it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Don't waste your breath getting outraged at a NYT trend piece, people! It's one outraged member of the IBTC!

One outraged member with two friends!

Anyway, now I'm pissed off that Earl might ruin my CSA farm. I forgot about that part! My pickup tomorrow is already cancelled.
