But. People. Its WRINGER. With a W! A character does not 'go through the ringer, because that would MAKE NO SENSE, unless maybe they were in a bell tower, and non corporeal, and could thusly walk through the bell ringer.

Even worse is someone ringing their hands. (Yes, I have seen this. I am still stuck between being appalled and laughing my head off.) What do they think they're writing?

This post brought to you by a brief venture outside my flist.

(Also: Ad nauseam and dammit, now we're here. Have I mentioned how I am not good with mornings? Grrrrr. Die, mornings, die.)

But, so as not to have infected you with my grumpiness, have a FABULOUS fic where Martha meets Eleven:

Strangers with Bow Ties by sciathan file.

Hee! I have a colleague who is always writing "bare with me" in emails, and I think, really? What, here? Now?

;)

That, and "grin and bare it".

"grin and bare it"
You know, that could be Capt Jack's tagline...

(Also HELLO! How are you?)

Being eaten alive by work, and other things. But good, apart from that!

And unable to master basic LJ, apparently. ;)

Oh dear, I hope work leaves you at least a little bit alive!

And LJ has spoilers, so... ;)
