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.

What is even happening?

Happy Birthday, Vortex!!!

I think I missed that, earlier.

Would you all keep a good thought for Aileen and Brian? Thx.
Oh yes, Jesse. How hard for them both.

And CBS' answer to NBC's successful midseason drama "Medium" is "Ghost Whisperer," a Jennifer Love Hewitt-starring vehicle based on the work of James Van Praagh about a newlywed communicating with dead people who have not quite crossed over to the other side.
WHO IS TO BLAME FOR THIS?!?
I don't know. But the thought of JLH making the CBS schedule when Amber Tamblyn's show is nearly doomed has me making a mental inventory of my torches and axes.

P-C, it sounds like you've got some um science stuff. Yay.

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

I thought I could shut up, but apparently, not so much.

You're so extra adorable when you get your geek on.

In googling Massive, it seems they have modules. So you can buy:

  • Massive Spectator Set
  • Crowds on the Move™ - Massive's Set of Locomotion Extras
  • Massive Ambient Action Set

as well as the

  • Massive Combat Collection Set.

Cool! I could read about Massive all morning.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That's way cool, Nilly.

Nilly, is there a place where I can find all the physics-math etc. words? Hubby reads Scientific American for fun and likes articles where I can't even understand the titles.

Thank you, ita. Sorry, Jesse.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Sex is better than sticking a finger in your ear? I know this analogy not.

It feels better to the ear than the finger?

What tommyrot said. Tiresias is the blind seer in Oedipus Rex. He began life as a woman and was changed into a man by some caprice of the gods. He was asked which gender enjoyed sex more and said, "Stick your finger in your ear and wiggle it around. What feels better: your finger or your ear?"

I think this is rhetorically fun, but specious logic.

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

We're not gonna talk about ear-fucking, are we?

If I only had a brain...

My favorite, favorite Massive story is about the battle crowds they created for Lord of the Rings. With their first algorithm, the soldiers' AIs told them this was a really good time to run away, so they did.

Life should be more like this.

We're not gonna talk about ear-fucking, are we?

Only if it involves goats, according to the memo.
