Topic!Cindy - Josh Whedon!
Right, but you can hear the difference between Josh Whedon and Joss Whedon, if you listen. And maybe that's my point you see. I'm going to over explain though, because it's my gift, and my daughter's finishing up her homework (EXTRA LATE) which is delaying the bedtime of all three kids, and it's re-run season.
Damn, is pronounced dam, which I only mention, because gorram(n) is a corruption of goddamn.
(In other words, the N isn't audible, is it?)
Truth to tell, I'm not all that fond of the folksy talk even when used by the actor in question outside his role, and I think he's at least put in enough time using it that it's almost a picked-up regional accent instead of an affectation.
I don't think I liked gorram(n) when the show was on the air, but there was so little of the poor show, the slanguage never twigs me, now.

I know how much you love Firefly fans.
Well, it's less the show than the fannishness, to be ever-so-slightly-fair. At this point I hate Farscape fans much more, and I actually liked that show.
If they use words like "gorram" on your boards, immediately ban.I should ask Glark if he can still do those auto-replace things. And set it so "Gorram," "frakking," and "frelling" would all be replaced with "marvelous."
I will take a short break from making it All About Me and say: speaking of sending things to ita... hey, do optical-illusion-y things trigger your migraines? Or trigger anything else unpleasant, for that matter? 'Cause there was a cute thing, but it was kinda eye-bendy, so I wavered.
And now back to How Tim Makes My Life So Hard, AKA "Strega whines about everything."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
This is a good topic. I encourage everyone to play.

No, they do not. As long as they don't move and make noise, that is.
Cool.

Well... it moves a little. Sort of. That's the illusion-y part. It looks as if it is moving. But it is definitely totally silent. And odorless!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

While we're continuing to not talk about the thing we've never talked about, does anyone have any insight to offer, on why I've been listening to The Cure?

See, that's what Scott said. Well, he said that I'm rebelling against my sheltered, middle-class suburban upbringing, but he meant it the same way.
Maybe I can blame your tag, Cass. I mean, your tag is The Sundays, but it brings me back to the general era. Ah well, at least I don't have to turn The Cure off when the children are around, the way I do when I get stuck in a Violent Femmes groove (who could do with a little frak).
