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.

For no reason in particular, I am now picturing a "quick google" as a small bird-like animal that periodically comes up behind you and whispers in your ear....
In retrospect, I may have potentially ignited a flamewar on TwoP. Someone posted a snippet of showfic using Goonies quotes, and I responded that I hated Sean Astin so much in that movie, I wanted to slap him hard enough to make Patty and Cathy Lane collapse in pain on their Nick at Night reruns.

Even if I thought I wanted to spend $60.00 on the supergigantic special edition, I wouldn't. Because I don't think there have been supergigantic special editions with sooperseekrit cover art for the other books and it would mean that my collection did not match.
Colin Farrell is lucky he didn't get kidnapped instead.
