Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The shutter-button-to-shutter-action lag on my camera is too long. I have never succeeded in getting any pix of lightning.

How frequent was the lightning? I guess if it's decently frequent, just randomly shooting might work.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Best use of The Grateful Dead in pop culture ever.

Not to mention Styx. Though I will grant that quoting "Mr. Roboto" at key moments has excellent comic effect.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

You don't want to piss off those bridge players.

We can be mean when riled up.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Hmm. I tried the cancel option on Netflix, and it seemed like I got to the point of no return without them offering me a hold. And I didn't want to accidentally cancel my account. But knowing it's there somewhere is good.

Does it work when you're trying to make the moves on your woman or does that only work for "Lady"?

“Liberals have never liked her, and we’ve always gotten complaints [from them]. But the complaints that mattered the most were from the conservative readers,” who felt that their views were being misrepresented.

What, they don't care about complaints from liberals, but if conservatives complain they gotta do something?

That makes a certain amount of sense to me. God knows there are some "liberal" columnists I wish would just stop pretending to be on my side.

"Lady" is not for beginners. You have to give a committed performance, which is very difficult to do. In fact, Jason Segel might be the only actor in Hollywood capable of going out on that limb.

Did you see they used Martin Starr on How I Met Your Mother? He was great. Almost unrecognizable since he wasn't Bill Haverchuck. HIMYM is like a wackass AU Buffyverse / F&G crossover.

I also spotted Danica McKellar (Winnie from Wonder Years) on HIMYM. She looked very pretty.

Between that and disco dancing, one must wonder: what limb does not belong to Jason Segel?

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

Jason Segel might be the only actor in Hollywood capable of going out on that limb.

And Cartman.

He was great in Undeclared too. Also limb-risking.

And Cartman.

Not technically an actor.
