Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Aimée: Not that this makes any difference to you, but it's about 1/5 of a mile down the street from MM and I.

Thomash: Hey, I've walked from Universal to your place. It's at least 2/6 to 4/12 of a mile

What is even happening?

Plei: Why the fuck don't they make creativity laxatives?

billytea: They're still too harsh. There've been too many accidents where a person couldn't reach the keyboard in time.

Plei: I once wrote most of a short story on a mud-covered shopping bag.

I can take it, damn it.

billytea: Sure, that's what they all say. Then you find yourself at the end of a feverish writing session, completely emptied, and reading back through everything that wound up on the paper and shouting "This is complete and utter crap!"

Everyone swears, no, they won't sue, but once you've been through an experience like that...

Sean: Next thing you know, you're all emaciated, lying in a gutter somewhere, begging for dollar bills just to have something to write on....

Plei asks:

Hey, mind of hive, is there a particular word for a cult that grows up around a dead person?

Daniel C. Jensen:

Christianity?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

That's why people say, "That's funny as hell".

SWF, 33, wordnerd, bookslut, jazzbo, comics freak, seeks golden calf to worship. Must not be in any way affiiated with or speak through George W. Bush. Looks unimportant. All serious replies will be answered.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Did I beat the rush? Gud, in Natter:

You can worship Gudanov! Why Gudanov? No goat or chicken sacrifices are required. Choose your own holy texts, the collected works of Neil Gaiman, Spiderman comics, whatever works for you. Bathrooms with the holy image of Gudanov on the back are strictly optional. All you need to start is a Gudshrine(tm) available in three easy payments of $19.99. But that's not all, with your Gudshrine(tm) you also get a mug with a picture of Gudanov on it, a $30 value.

Gudanov worship does not guarentee any benefits in your current life or any potential afterlife. Gudanov worship has not been shown to provide any advantage over more established religions in scientific studies. Gudanov worship should not be performed by pregnant women or men with pickup trucks with a gross vehicle weight exceeding five tons.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Gandalfe:

I was just talking about this with someone yeasterday, and I was trying to think of SF films that are truly thoughtful, and I could only come up with about 5 - Alien, Blade Runner, 2001, Solaris, and maybe Andromeda Strain.

Polter-Cow:

Alien is thoughtful? I thought there was just the killin'.

DavidS:

Did you think about the killing? I thought so.

Also, I think there was a lot of thought put into the design, creating a credible, lived in future.

tommyrot:

Also, there was a scene (that was cut) of the Alien reading "Atlas Shrugged."
