I'm loving them. Fortunately most of the ones I like are sold, otherwise, it could be dangerous.
Wash: Psychic, though? That sounds like something out of science fiction. Zoe: We live in a space ship, dear. Wash: So?

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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I also like that she's saving all the texts, just in case someone pops up who wants to take them and re-bind them.

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

Hey, I *wanted* the penguins to be gay! Is it my fault Silo went off with that SeaWorld homewrecker?
Just wait til they have a couple of chicks and he's providing for a family of four. Silo'll be cruising the park on the downlow.
From the article about Colin's new series:
Exec VP of programming Mark SternMark Stern said the show will be a major part of ongoing efforts to broaden the cablercabler's base beyond sci-fi geeks.
Is it just me, or is it perhaps not the wisest business strategy to talk about how you want to move beyond your current audience and refer to them with what may be a derogatory term before you've added the new viewers?

No -- I protest this. I know people in the military that want us out - not out of fear of dying, or anti-patriotism, or being unhappy in the military, but because we don't belong there and are makeing a mess.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Having been told by a boss -- in front of the entire division -- that anyone who didn't support the Iraq War was a traitor, I'm not going to call the anti-war side the lemmings.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I was surprised by the numbers in the Sheehan article. 100,000 versus 500. That's kind of amazing.

Silence means security silence means approval
Having been told by a boss -- in front of the entire division -- that anyone who didn't support the Iraq War was a traitor, I'm not going to call the anti-war side the lemmings.
Indeed.
I've kept my lukewarm pro-war feelings to myself (esp. in this office where the most conservative person would make Dennis Kucinich look like a Trent Lott), but it aggravates me to no end how these pro-war lemmings are ignoring facts and being hypnotized by shiny medals.
I believe in "you broke it, you bought it" with Iraq. And, honestly, I'm flippin' tired of these lemmings denying that we even broke it in the first place.
I'm not for a unilateral withdrawal, but I'm all for getting some help from the rest of the world in helping to fix our problem -- and minimizing our role in the process. The problem is, the administration's hubris is now the size of California (the parts that vote Republican), so they're not going to ask for help from anyone who hasn't written them a campaign donation check.
Maybe that's the solution to the UN's problems -- set up a political action committee to funnel UN money directly into the GOP's coffers. If the GOP was work on the UN's dime, most of this bullshit would have never happened.

Skapetty skippety skip...
Tim's PA introduced me to Nathan as a friend of Tim's. Which is, you know, fine. But Nathan asks where I know Tim from. Why people gotta ask that question? I'm not sure if the answer "the internet" makes me sound weird, or Tim, but it felt weird, so I said (also true, in a virtual sense) "You know that Tim -- he gets around."
You could have said, "I used to live with his friend Allyson. And, you know, named a moon after me."
