S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Kathy: From Ebert's review:

Frodo, the nominal hero, spends much of his time peering over and around things, watching others decide his fate, and occasionally gazing significantly upon the Ring.

Does this man not understand ACTING?!! Jeez, with all the movies he has seen in his life, you think he would know that the best of all acting is in the eyes, and to follow what EW is doing, you have to look for it, but it's all there. Grrrrrr...

FayJay: Oh fer feck's sake. What would he make of Hamlet?

Hamlet, the nominal hero, spends much of his time peering at his mother and his step father, watching others decide his fate, and occasionally gazing significantly upon the skull of the old court jester.

From Previously

connie neil:

Saw a story in USA Today about how story arcs are out of fashion for dramas, that the hypothetical audience and studios want standalones that won't confuse people when the shows go to syndication.

ita :

Kevin Sorbo must have that article framed and hung over his bed.

Sue:

It's USA Today. Kevin Sorbo was probably their source.

I think my cat is secretly moonlighting as a circus cat. There is no other explanation for his ability to stand on his hind legs for abnormal lengths of time.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

askye:

Apparently, I can read Gay Vampire Snuff Porn and Gay Underage Alien Porn at work without blinking an eye, my current work desktop is a big picture of Ewan McGregor and Jude Law in bed together in purple pajamas, yet I'm embarrassed that the teenage cashier at Borders will think less of me for buying Maxim. I am continually surprised by my own embarrassment threshold.

I'd love to take credit for that, but it wasn't me.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Isn't it amy, amys, amyt, amyre, amyvi, amytus?
