[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

That's not too far from my current reality.

My latte is too sweet. I even had the dude remake it and, still, he made it too sweet. I don't like new people. If I were a kingpin, I could take him out and have him beaten.

ETA: Oh! And since this is the Soaps thread, I give you hilarious Guiding Light news:

Guiding Light, America's oldest soap opera -- it began on radio in 1937 and moved to television in 1952 -- will be taking aim at younger viewers next month when it introduces a Marvel Comics-created superhero on Nov. 1. Marvel Comics said that it will cross-promote the storyline with an eight-page insert to appear in several of its comic books in which the Guiding Light characters will interact with Marvel superheroes.

What is even happening?

The hell? Who is their head writer and is it whoever was in charge of Days when Marlena was possessed and/or Carly Manning Katerina Von Whatever was buried alived (for freaking weaks) by Vivian?

HA! I was thinking the same thing. Maybe Possessed!By!Satan!Marlena will cross-over.

In unrelated news, I'm over at Monster and it seems that they have a thing now where they tell you how you stack up against other people who have submitted resumes to the same job. I find this bizarre.

What is even happening?

I don't know if I'd want to know that, unless I asked. Is it just there, or do you have to request it?

It's just there. It appears after you've hit apply. "28% share your education. 9% share your experience."

What does that even mean?

The Guiding Light news makes me laugh and laugh. I don't follow GL. I may have to tape a few just to see. Har.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

If you ask me, most soaps would be improved by the occasional appearance of murderous Doombots.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OMG, that GL news is hilarious.

Is this the Project Greenlight thread? Because I just saw an ad for Feast on DVD.

I was unaware that there was such a thing as tobacco smuggling but it intrigues me.

Tobacco smuggling is pretty big in Alaska, at least in some areas. We have pretty high tobacco taxes I hear, although I don't pay that much attention to the rate because I don't smoke.

One Hot Burrito!

I used to post here.

But, yeah, tobacco smuggling. When I was a kid in North Carolina, my dad used to own a small grocery. (My dad was a grocer.) And since we lived relatively close to I-95, people who were traveling from New York would always stop in an load up on cartons and cartons of cigarettes.

Don't really know if they were "smuggling." But they were at least taking advantage of packs of cigarettes for less than three dollars.
