Logical purchases. I just advance purchased a biker jacket¹ with an embossed Batman logo. I sneer at logical purchases (as my mint.com account sneers at me).
¹: Like, actual "street legal" biker jacket with armour and shit.
This must be what going mad feels like.

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

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

It's sadly obsessive, is what it is, but if I can't share it here, where can I?
Yeah, I'm gonna wear it to work, though, since I'm funding it with project bonus money, not just normal salary.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Farscape S3 / Hitchhiker's Guide
Or maybe Angel S4 / Dune
Wait, wait - The Prisoner / Anathem
There's too much good stuff out there, that's the problem.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I was watching this incredibly marginal movie on Lifetime with one of the actresses from "That 70s show." She was a sculptor and when they showed her living room, it had these beautiful mounted bookcases. One side of the bookcases wasn't mounted properly (it was covering part of a window) and I could not look at anything else in the scene while it was in the living room.
I kept wondering: why didn't they mount those properly? those are nice bookcases.

However, I am now curious about anybody else's combo pack of Watched/Read.
Battlestar Galactica S1 and Casanova.
With Faction Paradox as an alternate in case of emergency.
There's lots of other stuff I love, but those 3 loved me back.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Strega! I just finished reading This Town Will Never Let Us Go. That was a fantastic read. I felt the end let it down a little, and possibly showed up the limits of its style of continental philosophising, but nonetheless I loved its rather deft readiness to weave those thoghts into it. Reminded me of some Kundera.

Because books.
My sweet spot would probably be Supernatural/the Harry Potter books.
