Natter 53: We could just avoid making tortured puns  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Mainly, I'm bored. Please to entertain me.

Me too, on the bored.

I should be getting my bitch on about an IT thing, but I am not sure I have the energy.

We could play FCM but I am even too tired to do that.

FCM: Jack Bristow, Preston Burke, Seth Cohen

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

Facebook and the LAPL database are down. I'm sitting next to a phone, but I keep trying to fire up the web interface to the library so I can renew that way.

Let us not speak of how close I am to a meatspace branch.

I'm not misanthropic enough to justify this, I swear. Just lazy.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

M: Preston Burke - he seems like he'd be a good husband. Maybe a bit of a workaholic, but I can be one, too.

F: Jack Bristow - he's not terribly trustworthy, but would be a great F.

C: Seth Cohen - I don't know him, but his Googled images doesn't do much for me. Too young boy for me.

Gawker or Defamer or one of those blogs led me to Locher, where I have fallen ridiculously in love with some of their high priced T shirt collection.

Need sugar daddy. With sense of humour.

Oh man, I want that first t-shirt.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Those are good shirts.

How about some TV talk in Natter?

Anybody watching the new AMC series Mad Men? It's set in the Madison Avenue advertising world of 1960. Everybody smokes like a fiend, everybody is complex and ill behaved, the kids flop around in the car without seat belts, the sexism is brutal (but the show itself isn't sexist).

It's really compelling if you like shady and interesting protagonists. Also it looks really cool. Great dresses and suits.

I have two of them saved on tivo, but I haven't had a chance to watch them yet.

I think I missed the pilot though-- do I need to know anything about it to watch the others?

This t-shirt (scroll down) is a little cheaper, ita.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I like those locher tops. Mad Men has only aired two eps.
