The Minearverse 3: The Network Is a Harsh Mistress  

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have a beef with the spoilers, because ONE OF THEM ISN'T TRUE. Unless they're releasing something different from what's gone around. I also think I'd have swopped in a different spoiler from one I think is key to the ep in question.

All is well that ends in pizza.

If it's the one discussed in the spoiler thread, it is technically and theoretically possible given the script and observed edit of the episode.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

What an ass spoiler. Feh.

Yeah, but it's not there. There are a lot of technically and theoretical things that never happened. Where is she getting her info, and why is she implying it's on the DVD?

Art Crawl!!!

Are you talking about the EW article?

It says that she talked to the producers.

Does that mean they're releasing a different final episode from the one I saw? The producers' about next season is one thing. What I saw categorically had no cliffhanger. Except in the "where do they go from here?" sense, and the "will we get to see Aaron shirtless" sense.

Okay, she spoke to the producers -- perhaps this was what the producers were planning to do in season 2 -- not what was shown in season 1 at all.

I mean, would it have been possible given what was shown?

I do not know.

I was fine when existence had no meaning. Meaninglessness in a universe that has no meaning -- that I get. But meaninglessness in a universe with meaning? What does that mean?

Yeah, it was one of the possible spoilers for season two, but the "condition" was never mentioned in season one. Weird (and irritating) that she'd phrase it as if it was.

That's a horrible idea. Dear god. Why? Is it supposed to be amusing in some way?

I need a shower. And to scrub my brain.

[insert something funny here]

I have been away from the Minearverse for too long...

...and can't really stay now, as work will wake me in a few hours.

[trying not to be tempted hints of WF spoilage]

Will try and catch up on a months worth of loosely Tim-based posts soon, and maybe try and say something interesting.... Or at least get round to watching the *cough* rest of the WF Season.... then I may allow myself entry to the Spoiler thread!

On a totally off-topic note (Unless Tim perhaps hid behind the sofa from the Daleks as a child), I seem to be peculiarly excited about the upcoming new series of Doctor Who...

[reads post so far and decides brain is not up to it]

love to all. back soon. I hope.

random "I'm still alive" post over.x
