This is why I only eat ethically-sourced organic long pig.
Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness.
Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

Natter 69: Practically names itself.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

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'd say that long pig should also be consenting....

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ha, Seabiscuit just jumped up in my lap at my office desk, from which viewpoint he could see a coyote trotting past, casual as you please. So he is now growling and barking like mad at them. They're looking at us, but unconcerned. I can fill his heart beating like mad and his growl is guttural!

One of the many reasons I love this place.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I was getting ready to put him outside, but now I think no. And I was going to take him with me to the little general store, but I think also no. He's going to go ballistic with me leaving into the vast dangerous world, though.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
most people when asked think that a random person chosen from the phone book would do better than Congress
There is some evidence that this is actually true:
They won an Ig-Nobel for it!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've never eaten cow brains (on purpose), but I'm still a potential mad cow disease carrier. I'd assumed all prion-based diseases had the same transmission risks. Just because it kills you from the brain, doesn't mean it's isolated there.
This is perfect. I want it *so* bad. Even more badly than the last leather jacket I bought. Jesus.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm catching up on Ellen, so seeing the local news promos, and as of last week, apparently there was a "highly contagious stomach bug sweeping New England." So maybe that's what you have, Dana?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I think it may be sweeping more areas than New England, yeah.
