It was a weeknight. I was 17, watching TV in the family room. My mom was at her sewing machine and needed a particular spool of thread from her stash in the guest bedroom. Not a big deal. I waited for a commercial and then made the run.

It’s easier than you think. For Buffy, start with the Virtual Season 8 graphic novels. There is a Virtual Season 9, 10, and 11.  They are a lot of fun!  Angel also continues but the order is a little murkier, but “After the Fall” happens directly after the big battle of the series finale.  Later it becomes “Angel and…

Young me actually did that, but young me didn’t have a lot of money. :) Young me should have laid off the credit cards and bought more Apple stock at $12.

Deeds instead of words; perfectly admirable.

Being crazy is hard work.

“I don’t know how it was on Disqus, but this is Kinja, bitch.” I love this comment so much!  

What is Joe Kennedy III? Chopped liver? :) Actually he’s good-looking, charismatic, progressive — dear god, don’t let any dirt come out on him, please — he’s pretty promising!

I’m second gen; my parents both immigrated here. I’ve never known anything but the good ol’ U.S. of A., but even I feel that same unease when I think that his racism was not a disqualifying factor when people voted. I feel increasingly alienated from my own frickin’ country!

I’ve got a 6 Plus and I have not noticed any slowness!

What is your background image?

Or it’s a sign of someone loyal who believes in her boss’s cause.

Grew up in the South, too. “Boy” is pejoriative contextually. It is occasionally just used in place of guy or man or dude.

I’ve always thought of Episcopalians as Catholic-lite. Almost identical services, less guilt.

I'm curious, whereabouts in the Panhandle are you from? I'm from Pensacola, can't get more westerly in Florida than that (i.e., 10 miles from the AL border), and I got a great education at my high school. Of course, our class size was 457, so I guess you must be farther north?

I just think of it as holding up my end of the etiquette bar. :) Manners, after all, ya'll!

I heartily agree with your #5. I may not put in the 14 hours of tennis a week I used to, but I could never just play happily with rental racquets. The leather of a handle molds to your hand, it's like an extension of your arm.

BUT you, sir, you ARE throwing the babies out with the bathwater. Those children that so-called welfare cheat is having with all those many, many men? What did they do? So they should just starve, 'cause that'll teach that cheating slut? Suffer for the sins of the mother?

Okay...I gotta ask, is this a real quote and if so where can I find it? :)

Oh, count me in the bunny club. I have two lovely girls (a black lionhead and a great big harlequin rex) and a hyper-friendly rescue boy. They each have such great and distinctive personalities! My first departed bunny was a outgoing character who greeted people at the door, answered to his name, went back to his…
