Oh, crap. That's what you get when you only communicate with each other by means of snarky remarks while assuming that the default setting of any forumdweller is male unless proven otherwise. If I receive an official warning because of this, it is because I deserve it. Clearly the dogma of the male privilege is still active in my subconsciousness.

Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne,
In the land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One ring to rule them all, One ring to find them,
One ring to rule them all and in the darkness bind them,
In the land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

You are you, and that's what makes you great. Never forget this and you won't lose hope.

I need several. Total cost from last night's crash is eating into our savings. My chair is bent in half. Remember, this was the chair that replaced the one that dumped me on the floor.

I'm borrowing a chair from my work (working at a hospital has its privs) but all of our chairs are for temporary use, and it is uncomfortable as fuck.
