Allyson:
I hate John Doe. They are playing "Behind Blue Eyes," to drive home that no one knows what it's like to be the bad man, the sad man, the man that spews trivia all fucking day and doesn't know who he is and no one cares who he is because obviously no one is looking for my sorry no longer naked ass, behind blue eyes.
Edit: aw, crap. A.S. too fast.
DX:
if you took a five kilogram anti-raccoon and tossed it into a reactor with a regular five kilo raccoon, the resulting annihilation of the two raccoons would provide about 20 trillion Kcal of energy, which is the equivalent to the caloric content of 100 billion twinkies, or of a single 6.5 billion pound twinkie.
That's one big twinkie.
Is that all something DX said? Or is there a difference between the quoted and non-quoted text?
DX said the stuff about the raccoons and the kilocals of energy. I was a wiseass and added the thing from Ghostbusters.
Because twinkies are cool. Or Ghostbusters is.
Re Firefly's "hundreds of planets in the solar system" thing:
I think the conflicting stories on the astrophysics boil down to something like: "We don't know anything about astronomy. There are some planets. They are distributed in whatever way you would like to imagine that makes sense. Please watch our show."
....Aaargh! Who said this? Who said it? Damn. Sorry. Somebody smart.
Fay, it was TomW. Who is very smart and funny.
Um, not that I actively care, and not that the above is spoilery as such, but can people please get into the habit of white-fonting Firefly-related posts in here? Cheers.
Okay, I fixed Fay's question. FWIW, my quote has nothing to do with the show, but rather with a conversation Allyson had at work.
Edited to clarify what the frell I was talking about.
