NULL, the stuff of users' nightmares
Friendlier NULL
In a grouped list, if the group value is "NULL", "(empty)" is shown instead. NULL can be scary.
Also changed:
List v1 is no longer available
The boats have been burned. Long live List v2!

Common employment agreement clause
The clause "Maintain a professional approach when administering and/or making changes to customer property" was recently seen in an employment agreement.
What would it really mean if such a line was found in, say, a stripper's contract?

Fixation
"I don't know WHY I miss her, but ... No, wait. Yes I do. Those boobs. And that ass. I never used to be into girls that curvy, but MAN, once you hit THAT, other chicks just seem FLAT."

Delicious confinement
"On a more serious note, keep close to Jai Minerva. She is your friend, after all. Tell me how things progress, and for the love of the Father, refrain from drawing attention to yourself. Why the expense of throwing a party? If you continue to do things you hate, I shall infer that you are mad and confine you to the bedroom upon my return."

TF2 Medic
Reason one million and six not to sleep with your co-workers: they may shoot you full of hallucinogenic drugs in a fit of jealous rage.
