Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, flaming otters, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
JUST GIVE THEM DIFFERENT NAMES THEN.
They didn't have them back then!!!!!!
Sure they did. Choose a virtue.
new names hadn't been invented yet?
That sony bean thing is the cute.
Is it just me, or was last night's GA not quite as good as normal?
If they could come up with variations to call the eightymillion different Saras, they could just use those variations instead!
It was Ye Olden Tymes, people.
I have shit to do after work Tues, Weds, Thurs. I do not enjoy that, although I should enjoy each of the things. Bleh. Too much time off leads to lethargic Jesse.
OMG these commercials are so great! They're like little mini-episodes of 24!
new names hadn't been invented yet?
It took the internets to come up with "Brytteni".
One of my favorite Yeats poems:
WHEN you are old and gray and full of sleep
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true;
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face.
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead,
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars
