Hard News: Any excuse for a party, in reply to Sacha,
Heh. The 'smart and effervescent' panel is driving me slightly mad. (But I often find panels irritating.)

Hard News: Any excuse for a party, in reply to Sacha,
hours of turgid dress-ogling
I think it must now be noted that we are very different people, Sacha. :)
On the other hand:
The more I see of "ew, god, how could you" the more I want to get out all my grandmother's coronation badges and drink some fucking Pimms.
I think Emma and I might be the same person.

If a woman changes her surname to that of her husband, should she be prepared to sometimes be referred to Mrs [husband name]?
As someone to whom this happens even though I never fucking changed my name in the first place, may I say: NO.
You have to call people what they want to be called, I reckon.

Yes, I actually guffawed at that, Lilith!

That’s fucking horrifying.
Yes, but in 30 years it's going to be kitschily AWESOME.

I shall be watching, because I enjoy my own poorly informed snarky commentary on frocks and hats.

Pfffft. You people, with your "taste" and "shame" and "self-respect" and whatnot.
(I do have a semi-serious defence of Jersey Shore, but I imagine it would be rather wasted here. :) )

Last night, I did paying work while watching Jersey Shore. I don't even know what "shame" means.

I would like to nominate myself as The Least Productive Person To Ever Work From Home. I am easily distracted by pretty much everything, I have virtually no self-discipline, and at the moment I am additionally stymied by a miniscule work area which has absolutely no privacy. Basically, without having a strict deadline I will let a project languish in the ether until finishing it would be of no use to anyone. I have now instituted a ‘when do you want this done by?’ question rule for every single thing I’m given to do. My one saving grace is that once I eventually get down to doing something, I am reasonably speedy, and I can cobble stuff together well enough by any given deadline.
I think, in other words, that I am The-Anti-Lucy’s-Husband. :)
ETA: I wrote this post instead of searching for articles in a database. Heh.

Hard News: A Work of Advocacy, in reply to Russell Brown,
Delicious, but it's really hard to get the balls to hold together.
You do this sort of thing on purpose, don't you?
