[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
The whole Roddenberry trope that true love is somehow antithetical to one's duty means that I'd either have to die tragically or turn out evil
I got the impression that it was more true love was antithetical to series TV, and splitting couples is good, cheap drama.
For people who want to be spoiled for Project Runway -- I hear that NYMetro.com has the finalists and their lines in their Fashion Week Coverage.
I haven't looked because I don't want to be spoiled.

That's the main reason true love goes kablooey in most tv series, but with Roddenberry, it usually ended up in one of two ways, and there was always a crisis over duty thrown in to boot. (Okay, not ALWAYS--see Troi and Riker--but often enough to be noticable.)
see Troi and Riker
There was def. a duty issue here for Riker. It's the reason the originally broke up (pre-TNG).
From my angle, duty was the excuse -- no more relationships ended than in your average show (perhaps fewer -- Keiko and O'Brien had their spats, but were nice and domestic and birthed two babies), just that there was no imagination used in the reasoning.
Really? Why is that funny? In a "how cute," way.
Just seems unlikely for an RSC actor to fall for a barrel-rider CMA star.
Ringo had that whole Buck Owens thing.
Hey, Buck's cool! He's even in the Catalog of Cool:
BUCK OWENS * Never one to pass up a trope ("I've Got the Hungries for Your Love and I'm Waitin' in Your Welfare Line"), the Hee Haw superstar responded to pop's acid-rock craze with "Who's Gonna Mow Your Grass" (1969).
Oh. Dear. I have a professor that puts smiley faces on papers when grading. Not only does she use smiley faces, though. She also uses sad faces with tears running down the cheeks.
I'm scared. Very, very scared. I don't suppose I should expect much helpful feedback on my writing from her, should I?
:(I wouldn't. But I'm callous and strange. :) Hec, not impugning Buck...it's just another Brit country obsession thing.

Be afraid. Be very afraid. If she starts writing "lol" all the time, you might want to reconsider the course.
I did once know a person who seemed otherwise sane who dotted her i's with little hearts.

Was it Harmony?
