Yeah, I left off the last sentence:
Non-threatening unless, of course, you're a kitten. Or a person who masturbates.
And boys -- let's watch the swearing.

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

Ann, that's a ferret.
Sometimes I wish Pearl could talk, so she could comment on this sort of thing.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
"Every time you masturbate – God kills a kitten!"
I'd like to see the Biblical basis for this. In my translation, there were no kittens.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
Timelies!
Nilly sighting!
ETA: Whoa! There were several sentences after this that just disappeared for utterly mysterious reasons!

So, spray-on clothes in a can. They're saying this will go on sale in the UK next year.
Amazing spray-on shirt you can take off, wash, reuse (NSFW)
Only moderately NSFW.
What if instead of trying to pick between different shirts in the morning, you reached for a spray can instead? Some scientists at the Imperial College London have made it a reality, using a cocktail of cotton, polyester, plastic and solvents.
Amazingly, the material peels away from one's skin as it dries, and at that point you can even take it off and run it through the washer to use again. The downside? It looks like someone went nuts with some silly string — you'll be turning heads, but not in a good way.
The spray-on shirt is the result of 10 years of researchers, and the scientists behind the project hope it'll become a viable product. Check it out in the video below, though be forewarned, this spray-on clothing is tested on a pretty lady.

Dana, I'll actually be in Baltimore, the weekend before the march (the 19th? Through 25th) for my drag king convention. But I'll probably come down to DC in there at some point.

Non-threatening unless, of course, you're a kitten. Or a person who masturbates.
Well, unless you're reallllly into killing kittens. In which case it might be a gold mine

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Yes. We are terribly old. It is very sad. But we are still managing to straggle up to our keyboards so all is well. We are why I get all in a snit about people who disparage internet communities. We have been together through birth and death and marriages and divorces and illness and good fortune. It is not fake people! This is not a fake relationship. I have known you over a decade, as opposed to internet disparagers whom I have only known the merest smidgen of time. Harumph.
This was pretty beautiful.
The only positive thing that I associate with 9/11 was the way we all got each other through it. Really. And it changed how I thought about the Buffistas, from "these are the people I talk about Buffy with [and they're smart, funny, and fabulously weird]," to "these are my people."

I really thought this board was older than 8 yrs. I guess I'm confusing it with the precursors. So when I said I hadn't been here regularly since 2001, clearly I was wrong.
Still gronktastic. I set the alarm because it will take me 1.5 hours to pubtrans to the theater where I'm seeing "Who is Harry Nilsson (And Why is Everybody Talkin' About Him)?"
