Eddie Izzard did a bit, mmff... I think it's the encore for Glorious. With the computer and the printer, and the error messages? Pretty much every time I see it, I end up weeping.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

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
Also always funny: "I *wish* I had some root and a husband!"
Holy ass, I totally forgot about that conversation. I'm using Fay's AIFG post in my book intro, and it makes me giggle every time I give another pass to the chapter.

One of my favorite always-funny bits is the WKRP in Cincinnati Thanksgiving episode.
As God is my witness, I though turkeys could fly.

Yes! "I wiped the file? I've wiped ALL the files?! I've wiped the INTERNET?! I don't even have a modem!"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
CALLI! I just read so fast after being offline all day to post that, and you scoop me by five fucking minutes.
I can't believe I even tried.
::sniff::
There was other stuff, but in my grief I can't recall.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
For me, the other hysterically funny WKRP bit was Les going on about the Communist tornados....

"Of which there are FIVE!" slay me every time.
It's infinitely funnier when you've tried to hail a cab in SF on a drunken, rainy night.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Also always funny: "I *wish* I had some root and a husband!"
OMG, true fact. I think you people make me laugh more often than anything in any media.
I STILL am not watching Studio 60, but maybe tomorrow. At which point I may attempt to respond to all the whitefont, links, etc.
Instead, and related to a previous conversation, I'm watching Justice, which has opening credits/theme song I enjoy, with the "lawyers, guns and money." Or, I mean, "lawyers, guns, and money."

Oh, I didn't know we were back on regular tv, dammit. I wonder if I set the Tivo for that.
ION, I bought a box of wine at Target. 2004 Cabernet/Shiraz, 4 bottles worth (3 litre box) for $14.99. Oddly - it's pretty damn good. And it's such a cute little cube-o'-wine.
The selling point on the box is you don't have to drink the whole thing at one go because it's vacuum-sealed and doesn't allow in air. Of course, the downside to the box is that you don't have the "I can't open a whole 'nother bottle at this time of night" factor, either.
