Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If they are taking your money and approving your claims, it seems safe to assume that you are, in fact, insured!

A brief warning about the dangers of abbreviations: Someone just sent around a template for landscape analysis that is titled "land anal." Yeah, no.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

All too plausible, tommyrot.

Those both sound great, Tep!

Donald Trump has to be some sort of performance art project, doesn't he? Nobody could just spontaneously be so ... that, could they?

I would think so, except for the part where today they said that no, both Tim and I had our policies terminated after November 30. Someone at Humana has gotten into the bad LSD. I think it's the claims-processing squirrels.

I feel like there is a one if by land and two if by sea joke in there, but I can't quite get it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I know Zenkitty has mentioned this before, but there are several scientific journals where the official abbreviation does contain "Anal." And depending on your citation style, you use those abbreviations a lot.

For example: [link]

Don't eat the brown acid, squirrels! How many times do we have to tell you?

Medical editing can be boring, so when those citations show up, it's comedy GOLD.

That's not OK! But then, I came up in a youth organization where the conventions were called "Assembly" and we were very firmly told that you can never abbreviate Assembly in any way. Not Ass., not Ass'y!

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

Years ago I worked for a company that attracted an investment from an outside group. This group was called the Venture Division, or VD for short.

My boss used to work on the "PWP" project. I could never tell her why I found the meetings designated PWP on her calendar so funny!
