The roach sounds awful, Matt, but yeah for your dad and the really fancy toasters that can cook other foods, or even pretty designs into your toast.

That didn't come out as planned, but what I meant comes across.

So, feeling stupid, but what's TAL?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I was distracted from the plot in The Closer by an almost maddening need to brush Kyra Sedgewick's hair out of her face.

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

Debet, did you find out how The 4400 ended? Mine cut off too, just as the male agent walks offscreen.

Timelies folks. Monday the 13th is usually an unlucky day (whereas Friday the 13th is usually good).

I need this game [link] and so does anyone who likes A Series of Unfortunate Events or similar. It's just too bad Gorey died before doing the art for it.

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

Oh, I saw that in the games store the other day. I may need to take another look.

Hey billytea! After you mentioned War of the Ring I checked it out, and went ahead and bought it. I have to say it looks pretty cool. I mean, with 200 miniature figures designed by John Howe, you can't go wrong!

So thanks for the rec, even if it was unintentional.

CuteLily! Mal has Kryp the Bat also. It was his first stuffed animal. Now he's got about 10 that he's marshalling into a force for world conquest.
