'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
We are all SO possessed. [link]
I'd be tempted to fill out that survey with "wrong" answers but that would just be way way too easy. Maybe I could claim to be a Christian and give all "normal" answers except say that I'm psychic and that God tells me what to do in dreams.
