I went there for a little recapping snark and discovered the recapper was Jacob, the guy who sucked all the snark out of Doctor Who. He's following me like some horrible angel of pretension sucking all the snark out of my TV.
Welcome to my world, Gud. Jacob's a great guy when it comes to moderating the forums—very polite and even-tempered and respectful of the assorted readers/posters. But then the actual recaps read like one of St. Thomas Aquinas' treatises on religion and I wake up hunched over my desk eight hours later. And we seem to have the same taste in shows, so he recaps everything I like that Strega hasn't staked a prior claim on.
Have you, in your past or present job, taken care of or handled monkeys or their body fluids?
What if you did this as a hobby?
A former neighbor had a Pekinese that had an extensive wardrobe. Among the items, a sweater with "spoiled but not rotten" knitted into it and oilskins for rainy weather. On rainy days - like this - he'd be wrapped up in the bright yellow coat and the peering up from underneath the sou'wester's upturned brim. Cute - silly, but cute.
We have to put Ozymandias in a sweater when it gets chilly
Man, first the decay of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare and now a little sweater. Your ancient Egyptian God-Kings just cannot catch a break these days.
Look upon my sweater and despair!
Look upon my sweater, o ye chilly ....

For some reason (because I have a very low tolerance for pretentiouswriting...my theory classes in writer school were like torture for me) I really loved Jacob's Dr. Who recaps even while I saw how they might bug others. He was just so enthusiastic about the show.
Totally random question for the hivemind:
Someone told me just know that in NY, if your parents aren't married when you are born, you are illegitimate. I find this hard to believe, but I have no knowledge or experience to base that on.
Is there a legal weight to being illegitimate? Inheritance-wise or something? Non-legally, I'd agree with that PoV, but it would vary state to state.
if your parents aren't married when you are born, you are illegitimate.
Isn't that the definition of illegitimate?
