Sorry MsA, I put the :P in lieu of the "LOL" I'll be sure to include it in the future >_<;; and the specificity of the reference, but thank you for not being *can't find the right word* --unreasonable? irrational? is the only one I can think of, but it doesn't sound right *no snarkyness intended*-- in your response, and in bringing the last bit to my attention. Yeah, sometimes I skip past posts or don't get it the first time round when I think I do, I'll try to read more carefully in those instances.
I'm very sorry you took offense to that, NV, and I know I've already said I didn't mean it that way, but I don't know what else to say. I hope we can both move past it.
Roxy (and anyone else who shares the above opinion): I had no idea anyone was having that reaction to my regular posts. If these things aren't brought up as they happen, can I really know I'm doing something wrong? I'm sorry if that's been frustrating to the regulars, but if someone doesn't say, "can you not constantly post like that?" how can I know it's an issue? Otherwise something like this happens and the person of issue gets completely blind-sided. I've seen it happen before in person, so things like clarity of communication (or feeling, perception, whichever you wish to call it) are a huge issue of interest for me. Now that I "FINALLY" know, I'll try to curb it, but I think that could have been avoided had someone said something sooner.

FLT, I'm going to point out to you that people have been nicely telling you that for a long while now...From polite questions about your age (because folks were getting confused with the "I'm at my parent's place and I'm hungry" and "I'm at my place and my boyfriend isn't here and I'm hungry"), to other times when you have been told nicely to "deal with it like the grown-up you're supposed to be" (my paraphrasing here).
So here's my suggestion to avoid people jumping down your throat when you're quoting another show: MENTION THE SHOW BEFORE OR AFTER YOUR QUOTE (e.g. "As House would say: 'It's a parasite.'" or "It's a parasite, not an alien, according to House.") Smileys don't always cut it, 'cause not everyone understands all the different types of smileys used. And/or add a line afterwards that says either: (joking!), (kidding!), (teasing!) or some other way to let folks know you're commentary which may be taken out of context can be recognized.
A lot of us who have been here longer will point out to you that you're getting off mildly here. Please recognize that and start behaving like the adult (over 18-year old) that you're supposed to be.

Morning, everyone.
I think I may actually hate today more than I hated any day of last week. Brimming with hatred, I am.
How is everyone else this stupid, horrible day?

We're cold and really wishing maternity leave started today not next week..

Morning all. Missed last week almost completely in here and after catching up a bit I am kinda glad.
<.<
>.>
You guys were almost as grumpy as I was. 
(sets up a heavy bag for the Sneaky Lass in case she feels like punching something)
The weekend was horrible too. Of course cuz the Lions lost again.... Yeah. I am used to it, doesn't mean that I have to like it when they play like a real team for the first half and then fold in the second. Getting real old. Maybe they need more time doing cardio or something?
So .....
Monday Night Football....
Big.... Inner.... Turmoil?
<.<

I think I need time away from Teh Internetz again, to forget about some people and how much unnecessary aggrivation they cause by just generally being lying, arrogant, egomaniacal cunts. 8(

afternoon all,
wow, weekend suckage, followed by Monday hmphnurgh.
sorry to hear about your troubles HK, even more so if we lose you for a bit but you know, do what you got to do but there'll always be a bit of the bar stocked with friendly shadows, dew and wandering targets, I mean people to amuse you.
Hope you can tough it out MsA, I'm sure NvG is doing his full quota of footrubs etc so once again hoping all is well and you get your peanut in your arms as soon as healthily possible.
Hey Kel, I feel you on the football, ok so my team have been teasing me the other way this season but have two decades of consistent uselessness before and there is nothing worse than the we're about to turn a corner, oh no we're not!
Must get on, need to check spam lists, get to doctors and hopefully order power rack for garage

Man, all this negativity has to stop. We're all so stressed. We need group Breakables Room time, complete with full body armor and flame throwers.
*hugs MsA and gets her a blanket, time machine and pumpkin cookies with cream cheese frosting*
*glomps Kel with mighty force*
Today is my day to play nurse. The hubby has a nasty cold. I even had to go pick him up from work. Poor guy. Gotta run out and get him more things to make sickness go away. Or, ya know, I really could play nurse and maybe that will make him feel better... bow chicka bow wow.
(yes, I said it for you. dirty minds...).Gave up the other 2 kittens to my bro Sat. night. That was really difficult, but they love them and the one we kept, Reno, is doing very well. He's running 'round the room in a paper bag as I type this. He's such a nut.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DFTBA!

Quote:*pat, pat* can't win 'em all, Kel :\ *glomp* but it is frustrating when your team isn't doing well.

Quote:*sends some of the really weird New England fall heat your way* Hang in there :) How much longer do you have to go, roundabouts? (I forgot your due-month-time frame :\ but if I remember correctly it was Novemberish?)

Roxy: And here I thought my friend's cat was the only one that got herself stuck in paper bags (then knifes her claws through the paper whenever someone touches said bag). hope the hubby feels better.

Exactly the reason why Roxy (and those like her) end up as some of the greatest allies ever known. Guns, gaming and girls (or guys) who know how to treat their men (or women).
Eating a two day cured BBQ pork 'wich on toasted bun with fries and ketchup with Tobasco. Gonna pitch the BBQ recipe to the honcho as a bar favorite later.
Oh yeah, Tapeheads on the DVR.
