when you watch a guy configure Windows Explorer just like you do, it's hard not to be a little turned on.
Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Jen in Buffy 2 (spoilery):
I'm having the same problem that Vezzini thought Westley would have during the iocane powder goblet incident. I want to believe that suggesting Giles is dead/FE-controlled is obvious enough to be a mislead, but then I think ME knows that I would think that it's a mislead and make it not a mislead... Lather, rinse, repeat.

Madrigal on sentimental holiday beliefs:
Finding out that Santa definitely wasn't real was a relief to me. It was disconcerting to think about that much power being in the hands of the guys who spent afternoons at the mall holding kids on their laps, passing out pamphlets and smelling like sour whiskey. As for the Easter Bunny, I thought that he was actually Jesus, but because Jesus is supposed to stay in Heaven unless the world is ending, we had to pretend that it was this giant bunny so that God wouldn't get pissed off.

I say, Tyler, you're thinking of vampires.
Burrell, someone posted the same kind of "Princess Bride"ness after "Sleeper," and its tangential is-he/isn't-he speculation. The quote was, "So I clearly cannot choose the Giles in front of you!" (flea "Buffy 1: No, You're Not the Only Watcher" Nov 21, 2002 10:23:08 am EST)
Why is this important? I don't know...

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Madrigal Costello
I think my belief in Santa was largely chipped away by all the religious neighbors who had their "Jesus is the reason for the season" signs and cards, and some would set up nativity scenes in their yards that featured Santa kneeling at the manger. It was a very disconcerting interaction of mindsets, like watching two people try to duel when one has a Magic:the Gathering ccg deck and the other has a Yu-Gi-Oh.

Rob: Well, I've heard that PHP is lower fat then Perl, but that Perl is rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
Also, it's widely agreed that Perl is 17% more effulgent then PHP.
I hope these facts settles this issue once and for all.
John H: Rob, you can prove anything with statistics. 14% of people know that.
