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.

Yeah, it's wierd. My mother sort of pouts and says "why doesn't she say please" I respond because Dora says por favor. And our culture gets more bilingual every day, so it can only help her to know some spanish.

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

I don't get youtube but I think that is the Foux Da Fa Fa song clip from this week's ep. Otherwise it's also here: [link]

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

Acutal comment received by my boss from a big wig this morning.
"Brenda was excellent to work with on BS."
Now, in this case that happens to be just the initials of the client in question. Which is not to say he didn't stumble on a bit of deeper truth there.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
GEOFFREY MILLER is a man with a theory that, if true, will change the way people think about themselves. His idea is that the human brain is the anthropoid equivalent of the peacock's tail. In other words, it is an organ designed to attract the opposite sex. Of course, brains have many other functions, and the human brain shares those with the brains of other animals. But Dr Miller, who works at the University of New Mexico, thinks that mental processes which are uniquely human, such as language and the ability to make complicated artefacts, evolved originally for sexual display.
The study on altruism mentioned in the article was fascinating.
