That, I believe, is what Dr. Spencer Reid would call "a double stresser" ...

All I know is this mermaid works nights from home (oh, shut up y'all; I do freelance narration) and I depended, depended, I tell ya, on those late night/early morning visits to the Political Forum where I, bleary-eyed, falling asleep in my chair, and afraid I was too exhausted to continue the work that feeds my child, would read some post by, oh it varied, but let's say, by Dell. My tired eyes would go from being red to seeing red, and I would angrily throw down some carefully and generously worded response, replete with links. Invigorated with rage, I would hit "submit reply" and return to my work, my voice crackling with self-righteousness and vibrating with feeling. Because damn it, someone was wrong on the internet. (Plus, I've met Dell and I like him which is why I read his posts. I am liberal in very many things, including my use of the "ignore" option.)

Don't you understand? The loss of the Political Forum is HURTING MY ABILITY TO WORK. My next contract starts soon and spending my break time looking for obscure Herman's Hermits videos on youtube is NOT GOING TO KEEP ME AWAKE. I NEED INDIGNATION. I NEEEEEEED IT.

And I'm sorry you don't have the DRF Archives to entertain you in the midst of a snowstorm. I've never seen Criminal Minds, though a friend of mine just shot a small part on it, so I guess I'll be seeing at least one episode.
