I didn't watch Alias last week. I'm thinking I can just jump in this week with no issue. It might help if I stopped reading and computing and actually watched the screen to make sense though. If Alias can make sense of course.
Natter 39 and Holding
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.
Alias: I'm always pleased when Dixon is in an episode. Yay!
sarameg, I thought she said it was a joke because when she was saying "No," (to Marshall), the guy thought it was in response to "So, you're pregnant..." which, obviously, she is .
Real or No? Camel toads
HAHAHA!
What's happening in Alias these days anyway? I've been too busy to watch, and now I'm afraid I'll never catch up.
Huh. She works for SD6.
She was saying it to Marshall, but it was a perfectly acceptable response to the czech's questions as well: "Are you preggers?" "(a)No[=yes in czech]", no need to say a joke to czech dude. In fact, saying it was a joke would confuse czdude more= blow cover.
They are in Mala Strana!
So this person found a letter in which her (let's say) godson talked about looking for something that she'd never heard of, so she assumed it was drugs? Wow. Talk about a one-track mind.
Does one really get camel toes in swimsuits?
Also, I've noticed that apparently the not-quite-camel-toe "smile" is no longer a fashion danger, but rather a goal. Who knew?
Alias: Poor Arvin just has poor taste in buddies.
I will gesture or say something to "give permission" for the argument to go to that next level of intensity
What sort of signals do you give?
Hand-gestures that they should continue; body-language of interest; I'll sometimes ask for a clarification that gets into minutiae, to show that they're just not listening to themselves talk for no reason. I'm not the sort who particulalry enjoys eye-contact, but I use it a lot when I'm trying to prove that I'm both interested and invested in a discussion.
In other news, I skipped Alias! Well, no big loss. You guys will warn me when Baby Assassin is scheduled to guest star again, right? Wossname, Sark.
I am making comfort food for dinner: mashed sweet potatoes with marshmallows melted on top. Best use of an orange vegetable evar!
