Why do roommates have to be around when you don't want them, and aren't when you do?

No. We're going to sprint!
![]() ETA I hate using the computer in my room for multiple reasons. One of the biggest: The internet always decides to be weird when I'm in here.

Finally finished exams and allowed myself to buy Demon's Surrender, best book I have ever read, it is beyond perfect, I cried and I laughed and am so happy because it's the first time a book I've waited ages for hasn't let me down in the least.

Argh I want to read Demon's Surrender! I haven't even managed to get my hands on Covenant yet and I don't know when I'm going to be able to go to the bookstore.

You might want to get that checked out. It might be bruised or broken. Tailbone injuries are extremely unpleasant.

![]() I recommend a kiddie inner tube for your sitting experience, or a dyna-disk, used for strengthening ankles(air inflated, butt friendly, tailbone friendly). Both are very very helpful. I would not go the whoopee-cushion route.

Hey, you guys! For all you 11th Doctor Era fans, Steven Moffat RTed this, and it is amazing. SPOILERS, though.

That's hilarious. I love the line about Rory punching the Eleventh Doctor so hard that the First Doctor felt it.

Good Morning.
I see Rory has attained Memetic Badass status. What else is new?
