Hip-Mounted Cannon of Phallicness!
Yeah, so watching Armada these days. Though I do plan to pick up Transformers: The Movie, so the family can finish up G1. Getting stuck in a roleplay with three Rodimii is a bit weird when you've never seen Season Three.
On the other hand, DeviantArt has gifted me with Elita Prime. All is strangely well with the world.
In the news of the real world, I got honked at again today. There's a small lake out back of the dorms in this part of campus, and it has water fowl in it - ducks, egrets, geese. There's three particular grey geese who come up to the parking lot some afternoons and aggressively honk at passerby. "Feed us! Feed us! Where's the food, wench?"
The last part may be trauma left over from my early years, when I was goose-high and ran out of bread for them.
On a random note, the heterosexual erotica in the campus bookstore is in the Fiction section, while the gay/lesbian erotica is in the Gay/Lesbian Studies section. (Gay/Lesbian Studies is right next to the magazines, too.)

Out front of the library where I work, there's quite a few bike racks. Since the library is in the quad and thus handy to most every class, it makes sense that people leave their bikes there during the day. Why drag it around when you don't have to?
Apparently, there aren't enough bike racks, however, as every day, I see bikes tied to the mulberry trees planted out front of the library. Such a strange fruit to grow.

That's because sex after marriage is fictional. ;p
But yeah, it says a lot about our society that there's no such thing as "Straight People Studies" or that no one refers to, say, Casablanca as, "That movie with the hetero love story." When it's about straight people, it's just a love story or an erotic story or whatever.
It's just like black people are referred to as "that black woman" or whatever, while no one refers to "the white woman" - when there's no race mentioned, it's just assumed the person is white.
You know, I've thought that maybe I should make a habit out of referring to white people by race (as in, "So I went to that place and there was this white guy who...") while leaving the race of People of Colour unmentioned the way it's normally done when describing white people, just to make a point.

That would be some interesting vocabulary retraining. I know I've had a hard time breaking the habit of referring to hetero love/attraction as "normal".
The question is, do you think people will notice it more than subconsciously?
