What is your childhood trauma?

The Minearverse 5: Closer to the Earth, Further from the Ax  

[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.

"Don' be e-scared"

Maybe it was Matt Lauer. I swear, I got out of my car at the Vons the other day and this woman was staring at me -- as I pass she goes, "Are you Matt Lauer from The Today show?" And I'm thinking, "Now I look fifty. Great."

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Pfft. Lauer wishes he was as funny and goodlooking.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Tim, did you say yes and then berate her?

"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

Bwah!

Getting mistaken for Lauer isn't all that bad, as he's still got it looks-wise. As long as they're not mistaking his words for yours.

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

You have much more hair than Matt Lauer.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

I think that you have to watch the new Robin Hood like anyone watches Smallville. With v. low expectations.

Not an unfair remark, but I'd actually say it's more a Xena or Hercules headspace you need to be occupying to appreciate it. It's a show that lays its cards on the table within the first five seconds of the first episode: no, we aren't going for historical accuracy or logic. Look! Swashbuckling!

I rather like it, within those parametres of OMGWTF cracktastic anachronistic nonsense. Because (1) my people! Making genre-ish telly! Based on our folk tales! And because (2) I like the hot Muslim tomboy. But, yes, you do have to watch it with your brain switched off, or else you'll be all "But Marion! You're wearing trousers! What about the sumptuary laws?" and so forth.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Tim, did you say yes and then berate her?

"IS MATT LAUER GONNA HAVE TO CHOKE A BITCH!?!?!?"

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Apparently, the Mutant Enemy writers are all getting together to strike at Fox in a couple weeks.

Fans are flying in to picket with them.

Holy butt.
