You're talking to Serenity. And, Early... Serenity is very unhappy.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

P&G Wants to Trademark LOL and Other Millennial Phrases

One of the acronyms they want to trademark is WTF, which is perfect on so many levels.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

And also FML, which I really don't see as effective marketing for detergent.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

(After googling P&G products) maybe for Pepto-bismol?

Hey. New board.

FML is for Pampers commercials.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I decided to start reading the Prydain Chronicles to Rose tonight. We read the first chapter of The Book of Three, and she seemed to like it, though I'm not sure she was really following the story. After she went to bed, I sat and read/skimmed through the whole book, and was delighted to find that it was just as good as I remembered. I loved those books so much as a kid.

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

I loved those books so much as a kid.

I know we've talked about this before, but yeah. Me too.

Hey. New board.

OMG. Yes. Now I want to pick up Taryn Wanderer again.

Hey. New board.

My first exposure to Prydain was actually this old Black Cauldrom video game, which my brother and I were never able to get get anywhere on. It was hard! At least we thought so. I'm actually surprised I ever got over it to read the books.
