Emily, Parker pulled A Christmas Carol and its:
'What!' exclaimed the Ghost, 'would you so soon put out, with worldly hands, the light I give?"
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
My favorite was the part where he had to live in Manhattan because there aren't enough tall buildings to swing from in outer Brooklyn. No wonder he has money woes.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Not only someone to share with, but Teh Sex and Teh funniness and knowing he has my back.
Well, I guess if Mary Jane were paying some of the rent, sure. But having the things I was supposed to believe were honestly problematic waved away at the end of the movie just undercut any empathy I might have had for the man.

Coding and Sleeping
I only saw the first SM movie, but what struck me the most was "hey, didn't he make the web shooters?" I thought the movie was fun though.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Mostly that Tobey Maguire is horrible casting for Parker, but that's just the beginning of the litany of suck.
I think TM did a great job as Peter. But obviously, different opinions.

Yeah. I had a problem with that, too but was willing to deal with it.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I would have preferred someone else, but I grew to accept TM as Peter.
The organic webshooters, though -- I almost had an embolism in the theater. Ptui. Let us speak of it no more.

Didn't see Spidey2 so can't comment on that.
But, the string of "NOs" thrown at the parents in the Schiavo case has unfortunately earwormed me with David Spade's irritating NO commercial for whatever - some airline miles thing?

Zoo cam links from the one comics blog I read on a regular basis. In the event that anyone needs furry animal soothing.

See, I noticed the comic excerpt before the cams, and really, I'm a Nightcrawler kind of a girl.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Since shooting webs is the only one of his powers that real spiders actually have, I consider the organic webshooters an improvement. t /heretic
