Home sick

[exquiscadavre]

Well, thanks to a very diligent co-worker, who refuses to take a day off to see a doctor about her cough-that-sounds-like-death, I have a nasty viral infection which has triggered my asthma. The doc-in-a-box has put me on prednisone

And that's an improvement over your previous condition?

Well, yes--I can breathe. And, as you know, breathing is a hobby for me. I'm quite a fanatic about it.

I have long wanted to undo creation.

At long last, will you join me? Together we can uncreate the very cosmos, and return all that is to the pure and terrible void.

[exquiscadavre]

I surely will. I trust you have a Byzantine plan, involving a complex apparatus and the Swedish ambassador?

[lemonmerchant]

Have you been looking through my flippy-book again?

(Hint: Turn it upside down and riffle through for cute page-animation of the Reduction of the Aleph Formation)

That's the best male equivalent for PMS I have ever heard.

[carrot_khan]

Agreed, save for the fact she failed to include the thirst for blood because the salt cravings are so intense.

[exquiscadavre]

...I don't get that. I crave chocolate.

[carrot_khan]

I never craved chocolate on PMS days until after spawning. Prior to that, I would have eaten handfuls of salt rather than a Hershey bar. Supposedly chocolate has more salt than potato chips - hence the craving for chocolate during pms days - but I'm not buying it.

For the male audience members: imagine everyone you encounter all day is personally responsible for destroying the Star Wars saga with eps 1-3, and also cancelled Firefly (and greenlit "Mansquito"). But you are not allowed to confront them on it. All you can do is quietly seethe and hate every little thing they do.

Ah, so it's just like working first-line tech support?

[exquiscadavre]

Yes, pretty much exactly that!

[ursula_sca]

I LIKED Episode 1. (No, not Jar Jar. But the rest.)

[exquiscadavre]

....I can overlook this only because of your many other charms, including your particularly effective smoldering glance.

Mother of cute blonde sons here, including one who looked 98% like Anakin when the first movie came out.

Kinda had a resonance for me, y'know?
