What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I love it when people I like make F_W. It's like they've hit the big time or something.
Hee hee. I'm in this one, as "the interviewer."

All is well that ends in pizza.
The day after seeing Serenity for the first time, I turned on the TV and an old episode of Family Guy comes on.
It starts out with an idyllic scene with all the major characters enjoying a day at the lake. Then a leaf turns color, and suddenly hoards of cars come thundering in.
Oh, here's the transcript. Tell me what it reminds you of.
Meg: I love this time of year.
Brian: Me, too. The summer tourists are gone, and we finally have the town to ourselves before those idiots from New York show up to watch the leaves change and take over the whole place.
[Cars honking]
Brian: LEAFERS!
Peter: Holy crap! We gotta get outta here!
[Dramatic instrumental music]
Bonnie: What about the boat?
Joe: Leave it!
Lois: Hurry, Peter! They're almost here!
Chris: We're too late!
Man: Yo, Matty. Check out those colors. Yellow like a taxi, orange like the ball at the Knicks game and red like the sauce on my Mamma Mia's cu cazz.
Matty: Yeah, and brown like the guys I don't pick up in my cab.
Man: Beautiful!
ALL: AAAAHHH!
We were rolling on the floor.

Awesome. Although I was confused because they seemed to be lumping her in with the crazies. Whatev.

They possibly were, but what she said wasn't, and well, the fandomwank posters ought not throw stones, you know.

Thanks, KernelM.

Too true.
In other news, I have successfully made a full Firefly convert out of one coworker (he admitted to buying the Serenity Visual Companion today!) and another's interest has been piqued. I may not always love my job, but my super-geeky coworkers are pretty great.

That does bring up the darkly funny image of intercepting Reaver comm calls were they're glaring at the viewscreens and screaming at each other in some way that actually works as communication.
I totally buy this explanation.
