Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I think the bigger issue is that bananas as we know them will not reproduce naturally.

As god intended. Can't have slutty bananas reproducing outside of marriage.

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

Well, at least banana abortion is a non-starter.

Thank GOD.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Can “data” be a mass noun now? Please?

No! It's hard-wired into my brain as a plural now, and the world must accommodate me!

(It does seriously make me twitch when I hear NPR anchors use "data" as a singular. Well okay, when *anyone* does it.)

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

And yet, isn't "Thou shalt not bear false witness" one of the Big Ten?

That's one of those Old Testament strictures that modern Christians can feel free to ignore unless it mentions how icky God finds The Gays. Jesus didn't say it, after all.

Unlike, y'know, "Judge not, that ye be not judged." Or "And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men."

Oh, wait...

"And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men."

That's such a fun one to throw in people's faces.

I use "nauseated" correctly but never correct others, thanks to maternal conditioning. I use "hopefully" incorrectly but hear my mother chiding me in my head every. single. time.

My cat just (accidentally) scratched my throat when I moved her off the kitchen table. Owie.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Aw, man, I'm so sad that these tights come in child sizes only.

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS

I suspect I have been using "hopefully" incorrectly, because I have no idea what incorrectly is. ?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

And yet, isn't "Thou shalt not bear false witness" one of the Big Ten?

That's Notre Dame.

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

I suspect I have been using "hopefully" incorrectly, because I have no idea what incorrectly is. ?

Hopefully, you are using it to mean "full of hope," as in, "The poor orphan girl looked up hopefully at the stodgy rich man," and not as I have used it, to mean "I hope."
