Oddities

[marnanightingale]

Because I've never registered an age with LJ and I don't plan to now, I get a lot of "warning cuts".

And because I have a lot of poly/queer/kinky/slasher/just plain slightly unusual friends who

b) lead Decadent Glamorous Orgy-Strewn Civilisation-Destroying Alternative Lifestyles much like my own,

I see a lot of

Subject: Teething, again, plus an excellent cookie recipe, an update on the roof repair, and two pictures of my dog being ridiculously cute.

It's sort of a pain in the neck, but it does make me laugh.

[1] This, unlike the links to another journal that people in fic communities used for some reason to label "fake cuts"? Actually IS A Fake Cut. It's not broken. There is no cut. It's all font style settings.

It's true. I am just a Nice Normal Poly Kinky Dykey Socialist Old Married Lady. *nods SRSLY*

[wcg.livejournal.com]

I never doubted it.

I bake! And garden! And shovel snow! It is all very glamorous, especially when the sink backs up in the night.

(And truly, your partners are fortunate to have you.)

I know! Maybe everyone in the world is like this except the few boring people in our two towns, and that's why 90% of LJ are proud to be freaky.

Oh, great, that's all I need. Now, I have the idea of conduct unbecoming a lesbian embedded in my brain.[g]

I cannot believe you faked us out re: dog pictures.

OK FINE. FINE.

CORGI! Hurray.

It occurs to me that posts about the kids teething and roof repair probably are in fact not posts that minors consider appropriate for themselves.

The bit in my profile about Adult Content applies, yes. :-) I got that from a comment kd5mdk made when he was, I dunno, 19 or something, which looking back was the first of many hints that this was a young man worth cultivating.
