it actually made me almost sniffly too. I wish the shooter hadn't been Brass. I like him .
That's disturbing. You're emotionally scarred and will end up badly.

I'm kinda glad it was. The easy way out for the show would have been to make it a richochet from one of the bad guys. I think the decision to have it be Brass, a character we've all known for many seasons now, is a ballsy one and means so much more than just Random Dude #78.
Plus, that ending? Incredibly powerful.

Everytime a Buffista calls someone a FUCKO, Rio gets a kiss. Like It's a Wonderful Life, with profanity and tongue.
Oh, I think this needs tagging. May I?
I don't think I've ever had salt caramels. This is twisted and wrong, and must be remedied.
There's a place in DC that makes these kick-ass oatmeal cookies that are rolled in salt instead of sugar before baking. It's remarkably good. Perhaps I will make some. I'm feeling the baking urge coming on.
That mustache is evil and wrong, and it's making the baby Jesus cry. Also me.

Kristen, I think you are right in terms of the show, definitely. I just personally wish it had been another character.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

A minute's silence for lizard tongue.

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
Oh, I think this needs tagging. May I?
Of course.
I didn't get enough sleep, so I'm all confuzzled and annoyed. Woe to having to go to work to try to gain the upper hand over the scientists who bested me mid-week.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I only know the answer to the cat question, sara, and I've been sworn to secrecy on that one.
I've been looking at the blogs I have assembled on bloglines, and trying to think which one was the most interesting. I have to go with BLDGBLOG, although it has the least to do with anything I'm interested in. I have a ton of comics or tech or entertainment-related blogs, but BLDGBLOG pops out entries like this that capture my eye. I guess it's a photo blog disguised as something else.
What blogs are people here fascinated with?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What blogs are people here fascinated with?
Mostly political stuff.
Actually, I'm sometimes amazed that I am now more into politics than at any other time in my life.
