The next time you decide to stab me in the back... have the guts to do it to my face.

[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.

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

I remember Firefly marketed as a zany romp through space with Smashbox's Walkin' On the Sun as the background music.

I do however think that some of the ads have been pretty good.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

I am not snarking at anyone.

I am relating my experience from the teasers.

For the record: Tim is the real deal, by my lights.

He gives a fuck. I know this.

I think the recent ones have been intriguing.

But I think I'm a Katie Finneran loyalist now anyway.

Well, there's your problem right there.

He gives a fuck. I know this.

He's very generous. He might give a fuck.

DavidS, let me award you this generous phbbbt!

Say it, don't spray it, babe.

And while you're saying it, give me an update on Seamus, your girlfriend, and the Drug Replicator device you were working on.

Also, any new kites in your collection.

You do not care about any of that crap. The fact that my goilfiriend is almost as purty as yours and that I have a really incredible number of cooler kites than you do is immaterial.

The Drug Replicator, however, continues to be cooler than kites.

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

He's very generous. He might give a fuck.

From Tim, I demand two fucks.

That...didn't come out right.

23 years and counting.

You do not care about any of that crap.

So very untrue. Mostly I'm wondering (in a nosy manner) if you talked your son into moving to a monkeyless country and whether he's spawning anytime soon. Also your sassy girlfriend has both the intriguing science brain and the sin inspiring physical person. So naturally I'm just curious.

and that I have a really incredible number of cooler kites than you do is immaterial.

Undeniable. As I have one kite and it is not a cool one.

The Drug Replicator, however, continues to be cooler than kites.

But not as cool as a drug delivery system of kites.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

But not as cool as a drug delivery system of kites.

sssssh, Hec! If they're gonna stop the buses to and from Canada, we've gotta keep this quiet!
