All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

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.

"Don' be e-scared"

Dude. Hadn't seen that one. Um, I liked it! "Glad we could entertain you." Now I'm thinking I shouldn't have cut that line from 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

Um. That's the only thing you cut. Right? RIGHT?!?!

"Don' be e-scared"

Well, it was like 8 or 9 minutes over. But I didn't cut the thing you think I cut. If I'm thinking of the thing I think you think I'm thinking.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

That's the only thing you cut.

Besides the guest stars, you mean?

Oh wait, that was shot, not cut.

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

I'm thinking I shouldn't have cut that line from the episode.

This can be your first fandom kerfuffle, if you work it right.

I wonder if he'll let me borrow the Emmy he's going to win so I can spend a weekend all tarted up wearing a feather boa and making acceptance speeches to my imaginary fans in front of my bathroom mirror. Probably not.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

and at one point he exclaims, "I don't care about the pan pacific grand prix!"
Ahhh...
But Strictly Ballroom (unlike the Pacific Grand Prix) is worth caring about. Or watching, at least.
I no longer am in adoration of Jen... I must grieve.

ION, I know someone who is thinking of spending triple digits on tickets for Serenity and flying me in for the movie. It's kinda a lot for a night at the movies but we've not thrown in the towel. Tell me the movie is good?

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Cass,

The movie is good. Very.

You know what's good? That the movie is coming out in wide release in September, and if you see it in the early afternoon, you can pay six dollars. If you're really short and play it right, $4.50.

Leaving the state good?

This? This is actually good. The other is a multitude of sins colliding if it happens. (Because, fake as I might, there is no way I change states for a movie. It is merely a catalyst possibly.) ((states... catalysts... I sound like a daft physics geek.))

I am actually quite looking forward to September and wide-release Serenity.
