Jane bought some pencils. Maybe she read Whedonesque wrong too.
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Unless she spent thousands of dollars buying pencils that isn't really relevant to what I said.

You know what's funny (to me)? I'm not even looking at any of the pencil stuff, because I'm good with Allyson and Monique's opinions on it, so I don't even need to know. That's really lazy of me, but I'm so sure of their expertise in this area that I'm just going to be grateful for the saved time.
It's like free experts on tap here at the b.org sometimes. (And then sometimes, in cases that are not this one, it's like free experts on tap with completely different opinions who are also on crack but entirely sure they are right. Yeah, you know who I am you are.)

I was kidding. There's two blogs I can see which mention the pencil thing so far, with BlogCritic being negative: [link]

Huh, I hadn't really thought about the effect on sites like TWoP until now.
You know the thing with How I Met Your Mother and the actors being suspended without pay, but tied to their contracts, and SAG being up in arms? Universal are apparently doing the same thing. Well, they are, as Deadline Hollywood has one of the letters to actors online.
The funny thing, though, is this:
Regarding BSG, NBC Uni's SciFi channel is being told that, since the terms of Article 61 appear to be breached, the actors can terminate their deals and attempt to find work elsewhere.
So if the BSG actors want to find work elsewhere during the strike -- admittedly, I'm not sure there's that much work going around, but still -- they have to leave the show. That's gonna please people.

How the WGA is responsible for global warming, and other stories.
It's truly hilarious...and yet, not intentionally so, apparently.

UH's pencil count is 156,000. They're never gonna need to buy pencils again!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That's a hysterical clip. I have to admit--I worry about the trees cut down for all these pencils.
The emissions thing? Feh. The writers are going to fart whether they're picketing or not.
