Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Good lord. I heard about the Sullivan Square device at work, but I got mondo-busy in the afternoon and didn't hear anything more until I got all the way to the dealership in Belmont to pick up my car... and then it turns out that major portions of the city were (temporarily) shut down?

At least it's nice to know that if there were a major simultaneous terror "incident", Boston does actually know how to spring into action.

Not quite the way you'd want to get publicity for your show, really.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I LOVE those shoes, ita. Too much $$ for me, but I will wait for them to show up at Shoe Pavilion at a hefty discount and grab me a pair.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Except, honestly? There is no such thing as "bad" PR.

People are talking about it, right? It has the name "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" on people's lips (and keyboards)? Even though it was a dumb dumb dumbass thing to do -- it still has people talking.

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

The idea that a viewer of the show would stop watching because of something like this is pretty absurd. But I imagine their budget might get a little pinched.

Cartoon Network is somewhere in the planning stages of a separate network for Adult Swim-- this can only be gravy for that.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

But I imagine their budget might get a little pinched.

That was my first thought too -- if the cleanup for this stunt ends up costing more than they bargained for, they may be left with a priceless amount of buzz and no production budget.

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

Oh, the mysterious device was an LED of one of the Mooninites. He's giving the finger. I have the t-shirt!

I just heard on NPR that Molly Ivins died. I'll miss her barbed, witty commentary. Dang.

I can attest that the shoes & chocolate shop is great. 3 pair of my favorite shoes are from there

Awww... I heard she was hospitalized, but....

That's sad.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Aw, man. I'll miss her.

Oh, f*** on the Ivins news. I'd heard she was hospitalized, but I hadn't realized it was so bad.
