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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Oh. Dear. Gods. I think the Spanish should actually be "Hello and Goodbye, Mr. Brain Cell". Or perhaps "vile concoction".

Actually? It's pretty smooth, not arguing about the brain cell part though.

Aww, poor Matilda and JZ.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yarn Zombies: Now on Cards!

Cakeyvoice, the same maniac who brought you yarn recreations of Dawn of the Dead, Day of the Dead and, of course, Shaun of the Dead, has now created lovely cards featuring the characters from Dawn and Shaun, just in time to send out Halloween greetings. Awesome.

And make sure you go check out her Flickr pool: looks like she's been tackling Hellboy and additional Dawn of the Dead bits as well.

Gripping office debate:

"A variety of communicative activities follows in order to..." or "A variety of communicative activities follow in order to..."

Patricia O’Conner ( Woe is I ) says the latter.

Thoughts? The people want to know!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

When the movie Urban Cowboy came out, the studio (? someone involved in making the movie) did a survey. Most people thought "urban" meant homosexual. heh.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A variety follows, no?

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

Variety is singular, so that's how I'd go.

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

Lunch plans: either the Cuban sandwich at Birley or the jambalaya at Briazz. Both well known and favored items of considerable deliciousness.

How vote you Buffistas?

A variety follows, no?

That's what I thought at first, but O'Connor's argument is that the subject is plural, as in "A couple/number of deadbeats live next door."

Do either of these options involve you bringing me lunch?

I am consumed with envy ... having consumed a green salad and sugar-free Jello (orange). sigh.

David! I saw a t-shirt that made me think of you - it said "WWTWD" and, below, with an appropriate illustration, "What Would Tom Waits Do?"
