For some reason, my favourite part of this is how Tina just goes along with it when Bud says "Say 'AAH!'" without even questioning her. That really tickles me; can't say why.
I think Bud could moderate her strength to avoid damaging any fans/stadiums. After all, she apparently did not destroy Tina's head (unless that is what Sali is "Eeeeeeeuw"ing about. If Bud was a kicker for the Vikings, I would probably switch favorite teams. For that matter, given that she is so strong and powerful and indestructible, she could easily play any position, I would think.My2Cents wrote: Bud would have to aim high to avoid hitting the stands in case she gets emotional and slips up, and the referees would need counter-battery radar to confirm the goal.

Agreed.zachariah wrote:One has to wonder what Monica meant with her comment. "Been there, Done that." There are soooo many ways that can be taken.
It makes it so much easier to accept such situations as indeed being normal. One of the many many many reasons I absolutely adore her.

Same here Dily wind is blowing around 20-30 mph right now and the temps have dropped 17 degrees in the last hour!

Quite a way to kick-start her morning, though she might feel somewhat of a sucker now.Timotheus wrote:I'm certain Tina will be feeling more "together" now and be able to get a "grasp" on things.
Except for when she decides to defuse a situation by going to the alternate extreme. She apparently tends to quote Macbeth when doing that, though.illiad wrote:bud does not feel the cold, but she does pretend to, so people do not freak out....
The other day at work, my clothes were somewhat damp from having to repair a high-pressure steam line that was sort of exploding. I walked past an exterior doorway that someone had just opened, and the clothing all froze solid. It was like walking around while wearing very badly made plate armour. And then everybody had to stand around poking at me and going, "Oooooo!".DilyV wrote:EDIT:Winds are howling here... and temps are dropping through the basement...

This is kind of what I was thinking. If Bud's on your team........ why would you be kicking a field goal? Just hand her the ball and let her walk into the end zone.davids4250 wrote:I think Bud could moderate her strength to avoid damaging any fans/stadiums.

Y'know, if it were me, and I had made a pun that bad/wonderful, and hadn't paid the Pun Jar immediately, I'd be afraid of being shod.Catawampus wrote:So rather than a demon/soul mix such as Shelly ended up with, Tina gets a demon/sole union.

To make things interesting, you could have, say, Brandi and Phix playing for one team and Bud and Shelly playing for the other.GuySmiley wrote:This is kind of what I was thinking.

"Interesting". Yes, I suppose it would be - from a sufficiently great distance.Catawampus wrote:To make things interesting, you could have, say, Brandi and Phix playing for one team and Bud and Shelly playing for the other.GuySmiley wrote:This is kind of what I was thinking.

while I'm more of a Whovian, myself. i DO remember watching and liking the few episodes i saw on TV, i should probably look into getting the series on DVD/BD... off the top of your head, do you know if it's available or not? if you don't know, no problem. i can look for it elsewhere, I'm just being lazy...Opus the Poet wrote:Dave wrote:"Interesting".

Reminds me of a Blake's Seven quote. Not that anybody still remembers Blake's Seven.
Nah, it wouldn't get dangerous until you include Castela's rhino-charge and Atsali's flying pounce into the mix.Dave wrote:I'm sorta thinking that even the "View it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure" rule wouldn't ensure safety.
