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

Don't you figure the MTV thing is about image? You could pass.

And then they could out me, and there could be a scandal.

It would ROCK. I'd just have to convince the marketing guy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That would be hot.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

We are taking a commercial break so that Randy Johnson can come in in relief. Copycatter.

Actually, Johnson did the emergency relief thing in the playoffs before, back when he was with Seattle. He came in in extra innings to win a division series against the Yankees. Very dramatic.

I'm going to tell the marketing guy I'm willing to fake it.

Question: what wikis do people here use? I'm figuring wikipedia gets a fair amount of traffic -- anything else that's useful or interesting? Does anyone use internal wikis?

Oh, and did I say this here already? In the ads for the Ewan McGregor/Naomi Watts movie, they show the scene she shot in the stairs of the building I used to work in! So now I don't have to see the movie, looking for that one bit.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I don't use wikis.

I am sad, and wikiless.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I use wikipedia with a vengenance. Possibly more than I use google for that sort of info gathering.

Silence means security silence means approval

Actually, Johnson did the emergency relief thing in the playoffs before, back when he was with Seattle. He came in in extra innings to win a division series against the Yankees. Very dramatic.

And it forever fixed ED-GAAAR into the Northwest lexicon.

Later that year came the Seinfeld where they think George died, and when Steinbrenner is trying to break it to the Costanzas, George's father responds, "Why did you trade Jay Buhner?"

Wikipedia rocks. I don't use it as a final source, but it's great for browsing and illuminating.

IMDB coulda been a wiki, couldn't it?

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

I tend to end up consulting it for math questions fairly often.

(Wikipedia. Not IMDB. Cause that'd be kind of strange.)
