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.

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 had an interview today that made me sad. One of the questions was, "Do you know how to use Netscape?"

Um.

Um.

What does that MEAN?

So I said, "What do you mean?"

He explained that Netscape is a program that helps you look things up on the internet.

Um.

Um.

Um.

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

It's okay to cry, Allyson. It's just not okay to cry before you kill the interviewer. It can mess with your vision and has been found to increase the incidence of slip and fall accidents.

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

So I said, "What do you mean?"

That was not the right answer. The right answer is "Of course. How do you think I run my fandom empire, you wretched dolt?"

I told him I prefer IE. What makes me the most sad is that he asked the question AFTER asking me if I knew anything about updating websites. I said I could code simple things in HTML, but have trouble with tables.

My resume lists my sites.

Oh, speaking of fandom empires, I got an e from Fury with his new office info, and gave him the new Q&A. I googled a bit, and there already is a fandom for Lost.

Then I saw a commercial for it. There's a lot of people running amok in their panties.

Daniel Dae Kim is in it. I did not see him running around in his panties, sadly.

He isn't, by any chance, running around in anyone else's panties?

Dom's, maybe?

I should have put that in the Q&A.

Lost

I know I'm going to sound like a dolt, but who lost what? DDK's panties?
