The No Place Like Home Award to acarly and Laneia:

acarly: How can one acquire these ‘sexish sex eyes’? Asking for a friend / Laneia: much like dorothy’s ability to return to kansas, your sexish sex eyes have been with you all this time!

And the Trap & Release Award to Professor Queermo and Chandra:

Professor Queermo: I like how you make befriending straight women sound like coaxing feral cats. So skittish! / Chandra: Lie down on the floor to make yourself smaller. Blink slowly and look away to show you’re not threatening. Offer food. …Actually I met one of my closest straight female friends at a yoga class with a potluck at the end so this isn’t far off.
