Yes and no. I think its a great location, but only because there's very little time there. I have a suspicion that if it were a regular scene it would get a bit tedious.

Ya learn something new everyday.

I've only ever encountered it on TV Tropes. Specifically in regards to the distaff counterpart (I sincerely apologize for however much time you all lose to clicking thru TVtropes).

--- Quote from: USS Martenclaire on 21 Jun 2016, 16:01 ---I'm hoping to see a floof-off between them at some point. The casualties [sp] will be catastrophic. And fuzzy.

Ms. Azuma could very probably help out with that.

(Long story involving industrial quantities of TimTams I'd brought for the nurses at the clinic).

Real Australian TimTams are the best choccie bikkies ever. You deserve their undying worship.

--- Quote from: Scarblac on 22 Jun 2016, 04:57 --- Where the word "with" comes from is unclear to me, it doesn't sound like it's related to either 'med/mit/mee' or 'avec', not even to 'cum'.

Quote from OED:
OE. wiš = OFris. with, OS. wiš, ON. viš (Sw. vid, Da. ved): app. a shortening (peculiar to the Anglo-Frisian and Scandinavian areas) of the Com. Teut. *wider- (see s.v. wither a. and adv. and wither-1), perh. taking place orig. in compounds (cf. with- and the parallelism of OE. wižcéosan and wižercéosan to reject, wižstandan and wižerstandan to withstand, etc.).

Maybe someone understands that  . . .
