Yes, treasure it indeed, because there's no way *that* genie is going back in the bottle, trust me. The internet can squick you in ways you cannot imagine.

Hey, alot of gender terms are very useful in terms of differentiating to whom you're referring. Being able to say "he and she" instead of "he, and the other he" is totally cool. It's just that one doesn't want to automatically assume someone is one category when they're not. E.g. calling a Baroness a Baron.
Love the diversity of our lives, don't try and even everything out to a mediocre average! Language was meant to convey as much information as possible, after all. Except for furries. I want to know as little as possible about them.
(For more, please consult the collected works of Julia Kristeva, and most postmodern feminist literary theory in general. I'm sure there's an equivalent American writer, but I was a French major, so that's all I know, dammit)

I don't know about being a slacker. Mike and I both went to Slackers Anonymous at Crown, I am a reformed slacker. I guess the 1000 posts proves that i've once again fallen off the wagon.
Bah!

It took you over two years to get 1000 posts. If anything, you're a slacker AT POSTING! Pick up the pace.
With warm regards,

| A slacker that slacks at slacking is, I believe, a meta-slacker. |
