Buffy? I like that. That girl's so hot, she's buffy.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

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

You were missed today, ita. We had a lovely brunch and the boy got lots of good loot.

Silence means security silence means approval

Has the show ever established where the hospital is?

It's implied that the hospital is Fisher Plaza and thus in the Regrade, though it's never actually been stated as such.

I know locals who watch GA just to laugh at the hilarious geography of Fake!Seattle.

What is another name for Christmas lights that doesn't involve a Christian holiday?

The Brits call them fairy lights.

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

I wish I could have been out. I'd loved to have joined you. Instead I alternated between moving warily and curling foetally and considering the ER.

Isn't that SOP for any show that states its location? Either you laugh at the liberties or praise the accuracies.

Yeppers.

OK, these jackholes can't update their websites, apparently. I guess I'll plan to go to work. I don't know if I'll go if people are striking, though. I have no interest in crossing picket lines.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Interesting. I'm not sure how that would be taken in Skokie though.

ita, perhaps someone should take you to the ER.

Headaches and the ER don't mix. And it's way too late to go in for a concussion. So I'll wait and see what answer I get back from my email to my GP in the morning.

I'm watching my first episode of Mythbusters. It's really irritating. They're looking at the Robin Hood arrow-splitting thing, and it's like they've never heard of experiment design. I'm assuming it's not characteristic of the show, but it certainly isn't endearing me to anything, or making me want to watch the other eps on the TiVo.

This was what bugged me about Roswell. It was SO off that I couldn't even snark about the liberties. There were no accuracies. Well, except the space aliens.

it's like they've never heard of experiment design

No, that is in fact a characteristic of the show. You just have to fly with it.
