On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

You know, I might watch Smallville if the whitefonted scenario came to pass.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

An x-post with Minearverse for a filk of "Pepper" by the Butthole Surfers. The song was just begging for it.

-----

Darla met the Master
The Master she appeases
He was sharing Darla's outlook
On the topic of disease
Holtz got two holes in his neck
And Doyle was half a demon
They were all in love with dying
But their killer wasn't Whedon
Holland ran his law firm
Like a legal-minded Mayor
Then he got locked in the cellar
Angel just can't seem to care
They were all in love with dying
They were old enough to buy beer
But there's no time for a party
When you meet Tim Minear

I don't mind the script sometimes
The images it shows
Darla licks her sexy lips
Or takes off all her clothes
Characters, they feel so safe
Though that is but a lie
Cause if you hear from Tim Minear
Then you are gonna die

Some will die like Holtz's dear
A flaming aberration
Some will die like Lockley's dad
From lack of invitation
Some will fall in love but die
Through vamping by Drusilla
Doyle is wishing he had not been fried
But got salmonella

I don't mind the script sometimes
The images it shows
Liam goes from man to vamp
So deep in passion's throes
Cordy died, and Fred did too
But that was season five
If you don't hear from Tim Minear
Then you might stay alive

The mother Darla was alarmed
By peril during labor
Angel watched her stake herself
And out popped baby Connor
Then there was the ever-present
Nasal-voiced snitcher
They were all in love with dying
Merl just took too many pictures
Angel never Shanshued
But if Tim should write the end
Angel would become a human guy
Then trip and break his neck
They were all in love with dying
They weren't safe for but a second
Tim was bragging that he killed Doyle once
And he'll do it again

I don't mind the script sometimes
The images it shows
Connor getting his throat slit
Cause what Sahjhan says goes
Ask not for whom the bell tolls
For my friend, don't you see
That if you hear from Tim Minear
The bell, it tolls for thee

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

Fuck you, WB. Sorry, that article just made my bitter blood boil yet again. You made all your programming the same and NOW you're trying to branch out? Let me wipe away the tears with my CANCELLED SHOW!

Although I have to admit, the title of the article is somewhat amusing - this whole "fresh" obsession at the WB makes me think that the ones that aren't fresh are rotten.

PS I don't know about you guys, but I can't wait to watch Commando Nanny.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Brilliant filkage, udder-ghost.

Up with the sun

The Smallville spoilers are just ... sad. It was actually a pretty good show in S1, but now they're just in a corner. (More so because of the movie thing.)

Seriously, I think they should say "Clark doesn't become Superman, really. He becomes .... Bluperman, who is just like Superman. Except not. So don't worry about canon. Now watch this drive."

If wishes were horses we'd all be eating steak.

Sorry about any Smallville spoilers. I don't watch the show and honestly didn't really read that part before I posted the link. My bad.

I've only just realized that I posted the Andy Hallett news in Grr Argh instead of here.

I learned via LJ that he is still v. weak and unable to attend an event in Oakland that he was originally scheduled for.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I had just been wondering today how he was doing. I hope he gets better soon.

According to Scifi Wire -- the WB wants to do an Angel movie whenever Joss is ready to do one.
