Is this the same sister you've told stories about elsewhere? Because it doesn't sound as if she's changed all that much, nor as if you'd want her to. (Well, as long as she's on your side. If she got pissed off at you, I can see how she might be a problem.)
That's fuckin' funny. My sister and I used to torture our one babydoll by putting pins in its eyes.

I've only got the one.

I read LB as referring to alameida's sister.

Correctly so. Hey, can sister-blogging be the new trend?
Posted by LizardBreath | Link to this comment | 03-17-05 9:00 AM
Oh, right. That's the danger of going directly to the comment thread and bypassing the post.
My bad. I'm embarrassed now.

It's all about you, isn't it?

My sister works here, and makes the monkfish and halibut singled out for praise.

sister-blogging
And from there, it would only be a matter of time before someone requests sister-panty-blogging.

IIRC, PG suggested this was a real possibility.

Joe, I said I was embarrassed. Must you grind it in?
Posted by bitchphd | Link to this comment | 03-17-05 9:14 AM
Just trying to cover up my own self-loathing.

Ben-
Nice. Can she be convinced to cook you dinner on occasion?
Posted by LizardBreath | Link to this comment | 03-17-05 9:24 AM
Only on occasions when we're in the same city (e.g., Thanksgiving).

Can we just note that this blog does not endorse the manufacture or sale of illegal substances?

There's a law against halibut now?

Talk about your low-hanging fruit...

a, I almost said "rub my face in it." There's really no way to connote humiliation that isn't potentially sexual. Especially among this crowd.
Posted by bitchphd | Link to this comment | 03-17-05 10:05 AM
Among this crowd you wouldn't be far wrong replacing "humiliation" with "anything".
Posted by ben wolfson | Link to this comment | 03-17-05 10:08 AM
I wouldn't dare go there with bphd.

You could do a pun using "free," "man," and "ass."
I wouldn't. But someone could.
Posted by bitchphd | Link to this comment | 03-17-05 10:56 AM
That would be like a seriously desperate 'Hail Mary'.
That's sexual in the same way as a dick in a cold shower is.

I've been meaning to say, you and uh, Alameidus seem like an odd couple. But I suppose I don't really know fuck all about him.

I thought Husband X was the preferred term.

I can totally see it. They have this whole yin/yang, id/superego shtick going.
Posted by LizardBreath | Link to this comment | 03-17-05 3:41 PM
well, we are sort of an odd couple, actually. but in a good way.

Sisterbloggers, isn't that Alex Chilton's new blog?
Posted by Mitch Mills | Link to this comment | 03-18-05 4:53 AM
Oh and damn, ben, your sister is certainly working near the top. How long has she been there, and does she like it?
Plus, bringing that up was rather oblique, no?
