"Sex ages"? I'm Al

Okay, I'm not sure if I've slept on one either.

But my brother had one. So I've helped him move it. Draining it. And refilling it. I don't know if that carpet ever got dry again. He sure never got his damage deposit back. Anyway, I think it counts.

Sorry, can't relate. Over 5000 songs into my "songs that wander into my head" playlist.

I can relate on the furnace filters. Killed one furnace fan in this house already because in the last house we hardly ever needed to change filters so I didn't do it for...a few years.

Also looking forward to the podcast! And hope you have a great holiday season...

It's always heartening to find an example of actual Canadian culture that we don't realize.

Why does "confused" need so many words? "Discombobulated" also means "confused" but what it should mean is, like, "completely breaking down and falling apart".
Well, be the change you want to see in this world. They can't stop us all from using it to mean something else! It worked for 'decimate'!

I feel like it's something a lot of people have in common.

Oh, didn't recognize the name at first, but of course I am already looking forward to the new Cameron Reed. I loved The Fortunate Fall.

The Steerswoman books are amazing, and Hellspark as well. (I will take Lady Maggy over Heinlein's Mycroft for fictional AIs any day.) Janet Kagan also wrote Uhura's Song, one of the best of the original Star Trek novels.

So apparently I'll have to check out those other two.

This one was so frustrating. I had tried guessing one person as a criminal, and it fit all the clues that were visible, but the game claimed there were still scenarios. Rolled my eyes and went through the scenarios. I was completely right. Sigh.

Sorry, weren't we doing the Alanis Morissette song?

Thank you disillusionment...

I definitely thought of you when I heard she'd died. And then I realized, "I haven't seen a new strip in a while!" So I checked and, "Oh, yeah, he wrapped it up in February. I'd forgotten."
