Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

For a fraction of a second I thought you were saying that about Gina Torres.

She's pretty. And smart. She seems to smile a lot more when she's not playing Zoe.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Her smiling just reminds me of Jasmin.

I don't want to be reminded of Jasmin.

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

But Jasmine would eat you while you're naked!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

But not in the fun way!

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

By which you mean... PORN!

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

But Jasmine would eat you while you're naked!

Hmmm. Would she start from the bottom?

We have no evidence that it wasn't fun, do we? They certainly looked happy going in.

Yeah, I think Jasmine's worshippers would take issue with the "not in a fun way." If there were still capable, of course.

For anyone who didn't read the infocusmag article because of ... well, whyever you didn't read it:

Had you been given the reins of “Jedi,” where would you have driven it? Would you have given Captain Solo more to do? Would Leia not turn out to be Luke’s sister? Would the “another” Yoda spoke of late in “The Empire Strikes Back” turn out to be not-Leia?

Everything you said was right on the money. The Millennium Falcon would not be piloted in the climactic scene by Lando Calrissian and a frog. It would have been Han, getting it done. The “other” to whom Yoda referred would of course have been a young, female badass Jedi, because where else would I go with that? It would have not been revealed in the first five minutes that Darth Vader was going to be redeemed. And, yeah, there would have been a little less incest.

Well, I'm not sure about his last point, but it sure seems interesting.
