I mean, I adore improv -- it's my favourite form of comedy. But I will be instantaneously sullen and destructive if someone exhorts me to participate in any way other than giving notes.
This is SO me.
Hey! What a surprise! Hostile 17! Can I get you a drink, Hostile 17?

Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

If I only had a brain...
some of the rape scenarios were more stressful than anything we do normally.
Fascinating. Death is fine, six attackers in a dark alley is fine, being drunk is fine, but rape is Too Much.

I am paying the actors to be on the other side of the stage. Really. If I wanted to be a performer, I'd be off doing civic theater. I am not a performer. I am a performee.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

This usually me, but I ADORED getting asked up onstage at Ricky Jay's show and sitting at a table with him while he dealt a rigged poker game. All that card genius is even cooler close up!

Okay, I take it back. To watch Ricky Jay up close, I would do ANYTHING.
Was this in LA, Robin, or did you fly to New York?

Now tagless for your comfort.
I just had to send a snarky letter to the editor regarding a review of Bride and Prejudice in a local paper. The reviewer referred to the film as a "welcome rendition of Victorian literature".

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think sex is more complicated than death.
Hell, we'll all die some day, but not everyone manages to get laid.
Then you take sex, and change it into a power play?

This was when I lived in NY. BF and I were picked from the audience and he dealt a poker game and explained everything as he did it and I was a foot away and STILL I couldn't figure out how he did it. It was also fun because it was early on in our dating life and it was kinda cool to be picked as a couple.

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

This is considered to be the greatest form of sleight of hand. Only five or six people in the world can really do this.

Ricky Jay is the coolest.
