In other industry news, I just received a package from Warner Bros. containing a flash drive with four screenplays on it for my consideration. It's a pretty nifty idea.
Pardon the clueless man here, but what type of consideration?
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

[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.

Not Kristen, but "for your consideration" typically means "please vote for us for an industry award".

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I apparently don't understand what the phrase "cool to" means. I was confused because I expected that article to say they've "cooled down" or they "thought the proposal was cool," when I was sure that wasn't the case.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
"Cool with" would mean they thought it was cool; "cool to" means it didn't give them warm fuzzies.
I'm trying hard not to think nasty assholish thoughts toward the studios, but it's very difficult.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The difference is whether "cool" is used as a verb or an adjective.

Polter-Cow, you're not hep to being cool to things. That's bad (original meaning).

Joss Whedon, creator of shows like Firefly and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, has taken the writers' side in this dispute.
Doesn't this sentance make it sound like he is not a writer?

Ha, that's a weird sentence. Like he's just some pundit observing the situation, not actually affected by it.
