Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

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.

The Canadian channel (Global TV, I think) that was showing Wonderfalls at the same time as FOX cancelled the series after Wound-Up Penguin, right?

Yep.

They showed the entire run in Ireland, so they must have been pretty good. However, it was on the smallest channel.

Art Crawl!!!

Huh. So weird that VM's Mr. Rooks was the original Aaron.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I was at a panel about science fiction books that should be made into movies at Boskone this past weekend, and one of the panelists wondered aloud why no one has ever adapted The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress. Somebody (not even me) immediately mentioned that Tim was working on one. Even pronounced the last name correctly.

The other thing of note was a panel where the discussion moved to RP slash fic, at which Nutty and I managed to introduce the panel moderator to the term "puppy slash."

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

The idea of you and Nutty talking puppy slash makes me giggle, DX.

I am so happy with the Aaron we got. Mmmm.

The Buffistas have certainly broadened my education.

Finally finished WF, and I'm sure that this has been mentioned much, but I've been dark, but had to come to say OMGWTF: Kaylee, Heidi. I'm not sure how I missed all of this earlier, but WOW.

I'm actually kind of mad at myself for watching the DVDs. I had only seen two of the aired episodes (travel is normally good, but messed up the other two for me). I thought that they were enough to make me love the show, but I realize now that it was just puppy love. I adore the characters now (I didn't even know I liked Aaron then), and am heartbroken that I won't get to see more of them. I want them to come back from the dead like Firefly.

I guess it's better to have loved and lost, blah, blah, blah.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
