I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

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.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

It's completely dark outside at 4:38. This is unfair.

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

I blame the Southern Hemisphere.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Yeah, see, the paternal talk just makes it so much worse. Ewwww.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I agree. I'm just glad I remembered to turn the porch light on when I went home for lunch so at least I won't have to fumble about trying to unlock the door in the dark.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

It's really more grand-paternal, no? Is there such a word?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

"Creepy" is the word that pops unbidden into my mind.

I saw some documentary years ago where Previn mothers him like he's a little kid.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

As Tommyrot notes, Soon Yi runs the relationship - at least as seen in Wild Man Blues.

NYTimes reports:

Republicans close to the selection process said over the weekend that the leading candidates were Judge Alito, Judge J. Michael Luttig of the Fourth Circuit, Judge Alice M. Batchelder of the Sixth Circuit, and Judge Priscilla R. Owen of the Fifth Circuit.

So we're definitely glad we didn't get Luttig, Batchelder or Owens, right? Weren't some of them on the filibuster list?

Damn, Bush really got down on his knees and sucked some core constiuency cock didn't he?

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

I've had the image of infantilised adults dancing at the edges of my subconscious for days now, and I knew there was no way I could make it through the 31st without having to face it head on.

Ick.
