Speaking of Batman, [link] Wayne Manor just burned down.
teta doh! Nope, firemen were cornfused. Wayne Manor was a couple blocks away, and unharmed. [link]
Kaylee: H-how did you... g-get on...? Early: Strains the mind a bit, don't it? You think you're all alone. Maybe I come down the chimney, Kaylee. Bring presents to the good girls and boys.

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.

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 do not think this phrase means what he think it means:
I just said that same thing, at the same time, on AIM.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wayne Manor can't burn down...
Oh. Never mind.

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

So, I have this conversation about once a month at work:
Boss: I don't understand RSS.
Me: Well, (attempt at another metaphor/comparison/explanation).
Boss: I don't get it. I'm not saying it's useless, but I am saying it's useless.
Meanwhile, I've been working on another project for a research center. They needed a way to work on collaborative documents with 20-30 people but not have to worry about versions forking and with check-in check-out. After pounding my head against the wall trying to find an open-source versioning software setup for, er, the tech-disinclined, I was out of ideas. That is, until I read my RSS feeds Monday morning, and here's Jeffrey Zeldman talking about Writeboard. Writeboard allows multiple users to collaborate on text documents without any forking or people running each other over. And it's free. Problem solved... by an RSS feed!
RSS useless? Hell no.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
New York Police Commissioner says information received indicated subway system may be target of a terror attack "in coming days."
WTF am I supposed to do with this.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm sure this has nothing at all to do with Karl Rove's upcoming indictment.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I have long suspected that public warnings of terrorist attacks are like Red Sox fans saying "Just wait, they'll start sucking any minute now." You speak it as truth so that it won't come true.
Of course, this thesis rests on the assertion that preparation against terrorist attack is tantamount to crossing one's fingers and rubbing a rabbit's foot, but, welcome to Bushy America.
