Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove
Best warm thoughts going out to libkitty's community, and to SailAweigh and aunt's family.
Timelies!
Took me 4 days to catchup, but I did it! Now for a faux-meara:
Google Mars: Looks like they've tiled one set of photographs 3 times (or possibly tiled 3 single photographs together). I'm wondering if they hurried this out for some reason - I can't imagine this is the only area that has been, or will be photographed.
heterosexual panic day: SA, for some reason, people who claim to have chosen their heterosexuality always tend to make me think they chose wrong. Whether I point this out them depends upon how much I perceive my opinion might freak them out. Feel free to decide for yourself whether I come down on the side of kindness or not.
Cupcake eating amongst the Lean Cuisine set: Just fun.
Straight guy who gets the lesbian vibe *and* top or bottom: Too cool and A Keeper! Plus fond bootlicking memories.
West Wing: My phone rang just as the opening credits were rolling after the teaser. I answered, "Are you watching this?!" She was.
Chili: I like mine over white rice. Where does that fall in the scale of Midwestern chili faux pas?

Hee.
Maureen Stapleton: Matt, she lives in my heart for informing Marilu Henner (her daughter-in-law) in the same film "I go both ways."
IIndianaN: Three straight days of rain = sogginess. But brought the cute bunny out of hiding into my backyard this morning. Cute bunny!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Theo, in the article, the man decided not to light a cigarette after smelling gas (and he said that he had called in several gas complaints to management), but didn't think turning the tv would set off an explosion.
He also didn't think that winding up his "Sparky McSparkenson Spark-shooting Robot" would set off an explosion.
OK, that's mean. But hopefully funny.

OK, that's bordering on Darwin awards, and might have qualified if the TV hadn't blown up: "Hmmm, smells like gas. Better not light that cigarette. Meanwhile I'm going to sit down and relax and watch TV. Wonder why I'm so sleeeeepyyyzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!" *clunk!*

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dearie me:
Several critics debated whether to reveal the surprise ending at all in their reviews, but Molly Willow commented in the Columbus Dispatch: "If you taped the season premiere of The Sopranos last night after 21 months off, you aren't a real fan and deserve to have the surprise ruined."
I can see defending your right to discuss what happened in a show because it's your job, but saying there are people who deserve to be spoiled is a bit pissy.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If you taped the season premiere of The Sopranos last night after 21 months off, you aren't a real fan
For values of "real fan" which equal "subscribe to HBO and never have other plans on Sunday night." Bitchy much?

Always Anti-fascist!
wrod... it was very good, though.Be weird if, after having set the stage for a dramatic whacking, Tony actually died of something that weird and...considering it's them, random, so early in the season I hope not, though, because I love him and because that's a lot of...aftermath. Be like something Chase might do, though. All the HBO Daves are a bit like that, ime.

What she actually says in the first paragraph of her article is, "Holy stromboli, look what happened to Tony Soprano! (If you taped it, skip ahead. Then again, if you taped the season premiere of The Sopranos last night after 21 months off, you aren’t a real fan and deserve to have the surprise ruined.)"
It's clearly a joke.

OK, if you are sitting in a room with 6 middle aged white guys, one black guy, one other woman and you get asked to answer the question " is there diversity at XXX?", it is a perfectly reasonable response to burst out laughing, right?
