Hey, by that logic, I can find my wife on eBay. Cool.
You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

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

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oh, you mean for tickets....
Well, yeah. If you'd married a scalper, who knows where you'd be?

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
It's probably obvious from my earlier postings, but if anyone has extra tickets for the Seattle preview, I would love to buy them. I would prefer two tickets, but for this I would go solo if necessary.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
You know, the fascist reference is a fair shot, but it's Mussolini, buddy, not Hitler.
No, I didn't read any farther than that either. Since, you know, I must not exist, being a fan and not a boy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I skimmed. There are plot spoilers.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Mussolini, buddy, not Hitler
No, Mussolini's were the Blackshirts--the camicie nere. Hitler's Blackshirts were the SS (Schutzstaffel). The Brownshirts were the Hitler Youth and the SA (Sturmabteilung).
Barber certainly comes off as an asshole for ranting about fans acting like fans at a fan event. Chalk it up to needing to pad his word count, because he had so little to say about the movie itself. He says it himself, he didn't want to be there in the first place.

Damn. Well, uh... he's still a jerk!
But, oops.
ETA: Just to say, I did know the blackshirts were, uh, blackshirts. I just didn't know there were any brownshirts.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Perhaps I shall rent Harry Barber a clue. He certainly does not have the wherewithal to own one outright.
