Seriously ... writing Fox promos is your sooperseekrit job, right?
I knew I'd get outed sooner or later. But done right, it would get the viewers. Sadly enough.
We didn't have sex, if that's what you mean. That's all I do now, not have sex.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Another gem from the Angel thread, Gleebo this time:
Not even Wolfram & Hart would fuck with Bill Gates. Although playing Halo with the little gun from duck hunt would be sweet as fuck.

From the Firefly thread (whitefonted for future media plans because I'm a big ol' spoiler-phobe):
MechaKrelboyne: Right. Here's the plan. We give them a ringer, find the location of the reels of the movie, (I can jump out of a moving car and beat it out them) create a very small plane that flies very fast and carries the whole InterWeb inside it. On our way, we swindle some evil manager out of a cineplex that he only uses to show Cool Runnings and Snow Dogs anyway, drag it behind the Tiny plane to Israel. Then we make Israel not be very warm, because I don't like it when it's hot out, and it's my plan, you ungrateful SOB's. Then we have a big party, show everyone the Big Damn Movie, and the DVD's and have a giant party. We may also institute a utopian government somewhere, and my simulations indicate a greater than average probability of bringing about Zombie Apocalypse, but personally, I'm fine with that. We'll just need some dune buggies with machine guns on. This is a great plan because of it's simplicity.
Elena: I'll bring the bactine.
JohnSweden: It's too cunning a plan to fail twice.

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
Steph in Boxed Set:
Pretty much the only character I can think of who *might* be nuttier than Crichton is Drusilla. And possibly Willy Wonka.

Excerpted from a review of Tamala 2010: A Punk Cat in Space courtesy of tommyrot:
The plot has something or other to do with an advertising icon that has the power to destroy and remake the universe
Anne W.'s reaction:
Oh. Oh, dear. The whole thing sounds rather like an unfortunate collision of "Hello Kitty" and the trippier parts of "Evangelion."

This is a day that will live in infamy, and all people with any sense of decency will forever more wear black armbands with little pictures of half eaten babies on them on this date (which I'll come back and fill in when I figure out what it is).

I work in a library and someone ask me what I think of the Left behind series I have to say something along the lines of " I read part of the first one , but I found the characters so unlikeable that I decided not to finish. If you liked that have you tried ____ ( a few names I am blanking on now) "

Nilly: Luckily, most of them write in Hebrew, and there are still less Hebrew spam mails than English ones.
billytea: Naturally. Spam's not kosher.

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