Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Jilli might actually enjoy the Peanuts clip, though.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

It might Jilli, but it might not. Depends if we have similar views on the value of imaginary playmates.

I love watching Franny and her imaginary playmates. First there was The Guy, now she plays with a little girl named Dada.

but, damn, baby-having has afflicted me with permanent office-job ennui.

That's fairly common, I think. Well except for the parents who respond to baby-having by suddenly becoming workaholic, must-bring-home-the-bacon parents.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Can someone w/f for me why this calvin episode is so disturbing?

The premise is that Hobbes is indeed imaginary, and Calvin ends up in a padded room because of it.

You're talking to Clovis's right hand goth.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Like Angel in Provider. *shudder*

The C&H Robot Chicken didn't raise any ire in me. And I'm a huge fan of imaginary playmates. It was sick, yeah. Twisted. But I expect that from Robot Chicken.

That if someone believes in them, that you don't try to disprove their existence, or tell the person that they have to "grow up" and stop believing in them or get rid of them.

(Have I mentioned that I broke up with one boyfriend partially because he informed me that when we moved in together, I would have to get rid of "all the stupid stuffed animals"? I mean, he was not a good person to be around for other reasons, but threatening Clovis and my bears was the final straw.)

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I love this description SO. MUCH.

bon bon, the basic premise is that Calvin is psychotic and delusional.

That if someone believes in them, that you don't try to disprove their existence, or tell the person that they have to "grow up" and stop believing in them or get rid of them.

Right there with you.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

We may need to start a pool about how soon I'll accidentally burn myself with a hair dryer.

Jesus, I think it's hailing outside.
