Also – on an entirely different topic that has nothing to do with my childhood being totally and utterly ruined – is it just me or does Spock look REALLY fucked off about something?

Well now my childhood is ruined.

I had a toy bus with people that looked like this that sat in it. It was one of my favourite toys – I called it Derek’s Bus because… well that’s a long and complicated story I don’t want to get into, but it was one of my favourite toys. (I might still have it in a box upstairs).

And now I learn they are called “PEG PEOPLE”?? So if I do find it in a box that is ALL I will be thinking about!!!

Fuck me.

(And yes – not my best choice of words).

You realise that was the working title for Star Trek 5, but then they went in another direction…

Guantanamo Bay is still open.

There are still prisoners there, held for nearly a quarter of a century without trial.

Please – Tell me again how he respects The Constitution, democracy and isn’t a fascist.

Or are you only scared because they are coming after white folks now?

There will be no merci!!!

Pretty sure dodos don’t float any more :)

Yeah – this sounds more of a reasonable argument.

In 2003/2004 would people have said the same thing compared to Reagan, or Nixon? That compared to Bush, Reagan seems downright reasonable, or compared to Bush, Nixon seams down right reasonable?

I remember a lot of protests against The Patriot Act? And against Guantanamo Bay?

I remember a lot of right-wing patriotism sweeping through the USA and people being condemned for not falling in line.

Are you sure 2003/2004 was a more reasonable time?

Maybe someone told him to “seize the day” in Latin and he totally misunderstood.

That’s far better than where I was going with it :)

(The difference between Paris and Grimsby)

Please don’t confuse aro and ace, kissing in public is more romantic than sexual.

Depends where you are kissing the other person :)

Wouldn’t the booze take care of that, though?

I just need to remember that time I said that thing to that person.

That has me wallowing in anxiety for… oh a good long while.

That’s how it looks on my dashboard.

Might be a setting in “Display My Blog” (or whatever) but I kind of like it like that

You know I hear people say that.

But my great-grandfather didn’t know there was a combine-harvester behind him.

That ended up hurting him quite a lot.

That’s true. I was involved in the screenshot, and I am an edgy private school kid.

Except I am not edgy, nor did I go to a private school, nor am I a kid.

But I was involved in the screenshot :)

Also goes down well if you include it in the odd sermon or two.

So not that hot then :)

You two are fucking a dragon together?

That’s… new.

Because I post the posts that show up on my dashboard.

Do you know how much work it takes to go through and find the original posts?

Some of them are ten, twenty links deep. Do I look like I have the time to navigate that many links?

(I don’t).
