Handsome brooding vampire guy has to swoop in all sensitive mouth and overhanging forehead. How 'bout leaving some scraps for the homely-looking fellows who don't turn evil when they get some?

Guy #1: Man, there are so many hipsters around. I hate hipsters! Guy #2: You're at the wrong place. That's like going to Vegas only to say "I hate titties!" --The Warsaw, Williamsburg (OINY)

Thanks Nutty.

I went to a high school with a guy named Rob Estes. Not the same one, of course, but still it always gives me pause.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Ooh! That's all I have, but that's just generally my response to Gina Torres on my teevee!

So I watched Trash (YoSafBridge. heee!) the other day, and I have a dumb question.

When they break into the estate, they're supposed to look like they fit in with the hired help, right? And after they throw the laser gun in the trash, they don't have any contraband on them (well, besides YoSafBridge). So why do they run from the Feds? I'd assume the feds just had an alarm go off and flew out there--it doesn't seem like the guy pushing the button on his ring would actually give the cops any information. So they shouldn't have a clue who to chase till they find the guy laid out in his parlour, wake him up, and ask him who knocked him out. Plenty of time for Mal & YSB to mosey off the premises.

I know, story less interesting without chase scene....it still bugs me!

I was greeted with a "Firefly just ENDS!" today at a one year old's birthday party. I'd given the DVDs to her parents when she was born and they only now had time to watch (and apparently did it marathon-style. ) I reassured him there was a movie, but he was just so disappointed that I couldn't magically conjure up more series. It was funny.

All is well that ends in pizza.

It was funny.

In a sad kind of way...

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Una: Your observations are correct, I think. However, if I were Mal or YoSafBridge facing the possibility of an ID-check from Ye Olde Feds, I think I'd consider fading over the local horizon on general principles.

Being all cowardly in that way.

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

I was greeted with a "Firefly just ENDS!" today at a one year old's birthday party.

I got this, but at work. It's a lovely feeling, with maybe a little guilt. At least I was able to assure him that Wonderfalls arced neatly.

Firefly didn't "just end".

It ended too soon, but the ending was whole. It was a very Sartre ending, I'll grant you, with the Sarte lookalike floating alone in space, encapsulated, but artistically whole.

Joss is a god.

My goilfriend is in a seriously intense science coma. She has been so for the last few days. Consequently, I have watched Seasons 6 and 7 Buffy and Firefly on the DVD once again, some more, another time, yet still.

I went in there and said "Hi!" a minute ago. There was this glazed-over Dark Willow woman who uttered incomprehensible molecular science … utterances … back at it me.

Sometimes having a nerd-grrl fetish is kinda scary.
