All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Is it an "I am Malcom X" type thing?

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

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

I think that constitutes a cupcake emergency. Is there a corporate plan for that?

Our disaster planning should certainly cover ganache. I should raise the point at our weekly meeting.

Is it an "I am Malcom X" type thing?

That thing I get, because it's to some degree a state of mind. "I am African?" Fuck that noise. You're an American with Brit pretension.

The ones on the main site seem to fit with their message better. [link] The "I am African" thing is bizarre.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oh, I feel you on that. A friend of mine dislocated his ankle during rugby. Scary. Icky. I can post a picture if you want.
Such the giver... Um, no, but thanks!

"Please, might I have some food?" LOVE!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I've tried to think of a good reason for the I Am African things...but wow, what the hell? "I know you don't care about the continent, but if Gwyneth Paltrow pretended she came from there, you would!"

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Also, I love Phantom Limb. LOVE.

He's really grown on me this season. I loved the rapport he and Brock had when they had to work together.

And is it just me, or is this season so far even better than last?

Also, the season 1 DVDs show Brock holding what looks like a Samurai sword. That is just so wrong. Brock's only weapon should be his Bowie knife, plus whatever objects he finds lying around or weapons he can take from his enemies. Or he can take his enemies and use them as weapons agains more enemies (like the dream-thing he had, where he simultaneously fought off cowboys riding dinosaurs and frogmen riding motorcycles with polar bears in the sidecars).
