"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

I've been finger-fed by kids. It's them being imitative of their caregivers. Simon is River's caregiver, and she's throughout the episode she's very much in Kid Mode. I think it's just the fact that Summer's in her early twenties that's causing the hangups. Child behavior being manifested by adults seems to cause this sort of reaction.

Lord knows her IMDB picture's causing me a reaction. Yeesh.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Then, of course, there's the deleted scene where River claims to be having Simon's baby...

Woe to the fucking wicked.

What age is River supposed to be? I think I figured it out at some point, but I don't recall.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Never mind.

The film says (white-fonted because while I doubt anyone cares about this, I'd rather err on the side of not getting stabbed) 17. ETA: Very very sorry. Didn't put "color" in "font color=" the first time.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Cool, thanks. I won't ask about how long it is after the series, but, well, I'm anti-hodgeberry-subtext anyway.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I really didn't read any sexual tension in that scene at first airing. But, as with so many things, the Buffistas corrupted me for subsequent viewings.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Didn't put "color" in "font color=" the first time.

Did you know about the quick-edit for spoiler font? Put a lower-case "s" at the beginning of a new line and what follows (until you hit enter again) is automatically whitefonted, without the risk of inadvertent spoilage by mistyped tag.

If we're really lucky, they'll do it in that order...

Can I just say that, in my opinion, RotS sucked a big fat one? And I even went into it expecting it to be bad.

Sorry, I only saw it at the weekend, and I still haven't gotten it out of my system.

Christ, is it time for Serenity yet? I am, in no way, getting jealous with all you buggers getting to see the preview. Not at all. ;-)
