What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Pretty huge spoiler in there for anyone who hasn't read the books yet, btw.

Yeah, I was all what the hell about that. Luckily, that's the last storyline I read.

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

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

I was going to comment on the cards you linked to, Tom, but your tagline distracted me.

Pay no attention to the scandalous rumors that people spread about me.

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

Apparently Peter David got LJ's scans_daily shut down for copyright violation of ToS. And their policy of posting no more than 5 pages from a given comic was supposed to mitigate that, being more of a tease than a satisfaction.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Heh, I went to Wikipedia 'cause I don't know who Peter David is and it told me...

Peter Allen David (often abbreviated PAD) (born September 23, 1956[1]) is an American writer, best known for killing the scans_daily community on LiveJournal.

Well, X-Factor goes in the trash heap as of today. Fuck you very much, Peter David.

IIRC, he's the one who got in a snit because of negative comments about his comic on Scans_Daily. Someone didn't like it, and, in a shocking twist, posted a strongly worded comment, including "DIAF" (die in a fire, which I hadn't heard before).

Peter David got really angry and posted in that thread and showed that (1) he doesn't understand Internet culture, and (2) that he's a pissy douche.

t edit Apparently Peter David just hates the internet, because "The internet seems to exist almost solely to provide major revelations and thus take the element of surprise out of the writer's hands and ultimately be harmful to comics."

Seriously?

Everyone knows the Interent exists for people to post pictures of their cats.

And porn.
