Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

'Conviction (1)'


Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

If I only had a brain...

Surely even a great krav practitioner is going to need to take a few seconds off to giggle?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

HANDLING ATTACKS USING HUMOR, IRONY, OR SARCASM -- 2 hours

ROTFLMAO - The Not-So-Silent Killer -- 3 hours.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

If you laugh your ass off, does it lie there wiggling on the ground like a lizard's tail, distracting your attacker?

All is well that ends in pizza.

This all reminds me of the Monty Python sketch Self Defence against Fresh Fruit.

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

When you're dead. For something like a raccoon, they have to kill you.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

So, if I do run afoul of a krav practitioner, and I have an equal choice between a big knife and a live raccoon as my weapon, I should choose the live raccoon?

Considering that raccoons are vicious, bitey, and often carry rabies, they can make surprisingly effective weapons.

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

they can make surprisingly effective weapons.

Tricky to aim, though.

But tommy's right--what I meant to say was that the point of krav is that it doesn't matter which you choose. Or that there's no point sacrificing actual effectiveness for the surprise factor. That's what the improv is for.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

That's what the improv is for.

Ryan Stiles must be one helluva kravver.

Well, he's not even one hell of an improv comic.
