Which one? (I say, having found each one more annoying than the last.)
And Plei says it before I can.
You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The one with the kid takes all time annoying for me. I really hoped she'd explode.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Fruit stand! Huge pane of glass being carried by two guys!
We need Fruit Stand - the Movie! Just one long chase scene, with fruit stand after fruit stand being demolished. Plus, of course, many panes of glass being carried by guys. And sometimes the chase would be in an alley, with lots of boxes and piles of trash getting hit.
Every 15 minutes or so, a car would go flying through the air.
Maybe I should get into Machinima, so I could make this movie myself.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
My standards are just impossibly high ever since Ong Bak. In addition to fruit stand demolition, I insist on assault with curry paste.

Or, it could be a buddy revenge film. Two friends, each operates a fruit stand. One guy is days away from retirement....
And the rest writes itself.
edit to make more sense....

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That's the one, sumi.
Now I have to go and decide how honest to be with my boss when discussing my 2005 objectives. Do I talk about the disconnect and alienation? Or do I just smile flatly and follow her lead?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I think more non-morning people should have someone to bring them a hot cup of what pleases first thing.
I have one of those.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Question for the NYistas:
My brother's partner just got a much-longed-for promotion (no more horrid network and database support; he's now a fully certified financial planner and investment counselor), and at the beginning of January he and my brother will be moving from Boston to NYC. I got his name in the family Secret Santa draw, and I'd like to get him some new-home/new-city essentials. Any suggestions? Personal items, newspaper and magazine subscriptions, maps and guides, a giant sack of subway tokens, gift certificates to particular groceries or delis or restaurants?
I'll be checking with my brother, too, but since he's never actually lived in NY and all y'all have, I wanted to check with the hivemind first.
