While typing out a little article I am working on, I meant to type 'Byzantine saints' but the second word came out 'giants.'

Given the vagueries of my typing, it might ahve been possible to take that as a simple mistake, except for the fact that giants (from the destructive monsters that challenged Zeus' cosmic rule in Hesiod) was Neoplatonic school slang for Christians.

I like you both, but I think the Lady of the House likes me best. I'm an edgy person, yet I never chose to be one.

I wouldn't worry about it, dear. It's not my habit to defend Malkhos, but do know he wasn't personally offended in any way. He has had problems in the past with whole hosting sites shutting down over the appropriateness or lack thereof of content, but truthfully it is not a censorship issue with him at all. He would be the last person to ever argue for that, but sometimes it only takes one person to be offended before we're all in trouble. We like to think we "know" our friends here at LJ (of which I count you as one), and while all of them seem openminded, one never knows...

Am I making sense anymore?

Its nothing to do with that. Its a matter of that group is suppsoed to be work safe and you actually look at the friends page it at work.
