I wonder how Slimbrowser is listed. it's a bastardization of IE, but i like it much better than anything else i've tried. including Firefox.

Huh. Trying to recall my archaic work browser that hates just about everything. It's solaris something. I keep thinking 4.something but maybe they upgraded. Like 5 years ago. I'm going to be happy if they make me switch to mac.

My at-work browser is Opera. I know that it can be rigged to register "IE" on some queries (to get around stupid restrictions on websites), I wonder if it is or not.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Anyone else get the feeling that "Gus" was almost like one of his TVTropes? Television Multiple Personality Disorder.
It would explain why he was so completely Gus until the Weremonkey incident.
Alas, we may never know. Plus? Kind of rare IRL. I Shall have to say goodbye, though--however he left this plane--in Trudy's LJ.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Is it too early to change the Minearverse blurb to include Drive?

What is even happening?
Can we call it 'TV's hit, Drive'?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
[This is in reference to the discussion in Minearverse.]
I think we're getting tied up in the wrong issue. Whether the promos were written and edited by the Drive team, ok, I'll assume that's the case. But Juliebird had no reason to think that-- that's where the discussion of whether that's a standard practice or not came in. And so I don't think it's fair to tell her to "move along" if she doesn't like the promos, especially given that we've criticized promos for all shows, even Minear shows, in the past. It comes off like she can't post here if she's not in love with Drive already. If criticism of the show is going to be presumed to be a hurtful, uncivil post that warrants a slap-down, then I'll probably avoid watching the show.
Allyson, I love you, I know your heart is in the right place, but I reacted strongly to the idea of reserving the right to go mental on another poster. I don't think we should be able to do that here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Allyson's language was curt, but I don't see why the idea that if you don't like the promo then you won't like the show is one that can't be expressed, whether or not it's true. It's just as valid a Minearverse post as saying you don't like the show, isn't it?
The subtext you got isn't the subtext I got at all, not from that post.
I know where Allyson's coming from, and I know where her longer post is coming from, but I read it as "I'll go nuts if you go ad hominem."
