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

Lost: OMGWTF POLAR BEAR  

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

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 got an email that told me that "as a Christian, David Fury should..." and some advice on how to make LOST even better.

I was confused. I just replied, "David Fury is a Jew, though I'm not sure what that has to do with LOST."

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

"David Fury is a Jew, though I'm not sure what that has to do with LOST."

Uh, Jews did get lost in the desert for 40 years.

I think I'm supposed to be guesting on a LOST themed college radio show at 5:30. I think.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So the hatch is filled with milk and honey?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Just a bunch of manna, actually.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

also? Every time someone mentioned "immaculate coneception", I yelled at the TV "That's not what that means!!"

Even if it's being said by someone who is canonically lying and at least a little crazy?

While you have a point, it's still a thing that's commonly confused. I'm only pedantic about it because *I'm* Catholic, and yet I always manage to forget the actual definition sometime during the year and so hit my head every time we're reminded of it at Feast of the Immaculate Conception. YICMV?

They'll probably show us the paralysis somewhere in season 3.

So true; I don't know why I was actually expecting to learn the thing I *wanted* to know.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I thought Mousetrap was a good metaphor for the series. Little pieces are put into place, and then Bam!

I'm also wondering if Locke's original injury was at least partly psychosomatic. Powerful stuff, the mind.

Kind of reminds me of a Superman comic I had growing up. It was one of their "Imaginary" tales of the future of Superman. At some point Mankind progressed to the point that he wasn't needed, and Clark Kent started having trouble walking, after a while, he couldn't stand up, and "superman" was no more. Until an adult Jimmy olsen finds him and reminds him of who he is, and Superman sets off to find another planet that still needs him.

Um, I rambled. A bit.

Okay, now you've got my head shouting "Soylent manna is boars! It's boaaaaaaaaaaaars!!"

[insert something funny here]

I am pretty sure the CC's were wrong again**

"No... We're the survivors of Oceanic flight Eight One Five"

Which is not only what I heard when I watched episode (and what I heard throughout my careful analysis of the audio track of that scene), but also... it makes the most sense plot-wise to me.

Just as Boone etc probably consider themselves to be the only survivors, any other survivors of the flight probably assume the same.

(**The Closed Captioning is not always accurate. I WTCMB the CC transcriber had the deposit box numbered 850, when Kate did in fact say "815".)
