All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Scrappy: loved the review. Ask your dh if it came with an informative and instructive cd - my mother had one that came with a cassette that explained things like how to negotiate a v-shaped gully. We found it highly amusing.

See, I read "I post it here ESPECIALLY for Aimee" and figured he was road-testing a camel.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Dear Scrappy's DH:

You are awesome and I love you. In a purely platonic, admire you for your writing skills as well as your fantastic taste in spouses kind of way.

Signed -
Would totally save all her pennies for decades to get a RR.

Michael Irvin gives a pretty fascinating interview with Out magazine. (Also fascinating, more shallowly, are the accompanying photos. Iliac crest alert.)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Have you seen the Downfall Carmageddon video? It made me laugh. Not work safe due to the subtitles. It is in German, but I don't know what the actors are really saying.

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

That Michael Irvin interview is really interesting. Lots of personal growth. I can't imagine being the 15th child of 17 is easy. I can't imagine being any child of 17 is easy.

Our wings are not tired.

Yeah, Brenda, I read that yesterday and was really impressed. Which is saying a lot, since he's an ex-Cowboy!

I imagine if you were one of 17 you could get away with anything, if you were quiet about it.

Unless one of the siblings was in parental role, which is what happened in my mother's much smaller family (but with probably a similar spread in ages--my grandma was apparently sexually active and fertile a long time). However, parental attention and approval might be really hard to come by. However, it does sound like his father had a good head on his shoulders.

My sister doesn't see the gay in X Men: First Class. I think it's really weird how subtext blind she is. It took her until her second viewing of Inception to get on the Arthur/Eames wagon.

She is convinced, however, that the trailer for the new Sherlock Holmes is the gayest thing since I Love Philip Morris.

I also just spoonfed someone Tony/Steve fanart as well as links to fic. Why do I never consider that people are joking when they express an interest? Ah, well. Best to err on the side of tasteful sensuality, right? Right? I'm not pushing porn, I'm just putting it in arm's reach.

I just realized I haven't worn pants to work in well over a month. The skirts and dresses make this weather bearable.
