Count me in to contribute. I love this solidarity.
It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

[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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
"yarn" and "skein" outside the pages of Variety?
Not very. I cannot STAND how often they use "skein." I think it has become a self-parody at this point.
Suffice it to say, I think you have a cute idea though. :-)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
OK, now I like Ray Romano:
In Los Angeles, Ray Romano took bagels, fruit and orange juice to strikers outside the landmark gate at Paramount Studios. He said Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who relied on writers for memorable lines during his movie career, should help get stalled contract talks restarted.
“‘I’ll be back’ — somebody wrote that. He didn’t make that up,” Romano said.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Alright I signed the silly petition. Even though I think on-line petitions are close to usueless. But then I saw there are already over 33000 signitures and I thought, "well that is something."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yeah, Laga, I love that thing. The number keeps growing at an incredible rate. I don't know that it will mean anything to anyone in a position of power, but it's still a bold statement.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I hope it gets to 100,000, and whoever created the petition pays for it to hand delivered to somebody (petitiononline let you do that - it's not that expensive, I had them do it once).

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
But did you read through some of the signatures? You would have to go through and eliminate the "i have hemorrhoids" ones. That was just on the page that I signed. I don't know about any others.

Oh, that sucks. All of the signatures I saw were on-topic.

I had to do that with the petition I got delivered. Towards the end the petition trolls appeared, the people who hate the idea but sign it anyway to get a comment in. Fun.
