Strawberry disappointment.

So I'm reading Christopher Brookmyre's latest novel, and one of the characters is a browncoat, and actually refers to himself as a browncoat. Yay!

But I was actually pretty shocked by the sheer evil of that

She's a zealot and her writing just reeks of pig shit ignorance. I'm mildly freaked out that some people though it was linkworthy for Whedonesque.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That's how I first heard about it.

That's how I first heard about it too. And it seems to keep popping up as people seem determined to put it on your site.

I mean, hey, I've said some shit about people's work. But there really is a line between one's work and their actual life.

I swear. I'm not a serial killer.

Are you saying you're also not running a secret illegal cross-country road race?

I decline to answer that question on the grounds that I may incriminate myself.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Oh, I haven't heard that phrase in almost a year! I need to come up with a Drive drinking game and dig out the DVD sometime, that phrase is definitely going in there.

Ha! Seems Woot.com might be a Firefly fan. In tonights Woot-off, they have a 2006 Mac Mini, and the start of the description is as follows:

If there is one thing which will turn a casual internet conversation into an oily black sludge faster than the sentence “Firefly was cancelled for a reason”, it’s the question “Which is better, Mac or PC”? On the one hand, the PC has so many games, freeware applications, hardware options and ways to emulate other platforms. On the other hand, the answer is Mac. That’s why we’ve got these Apple Mac Minis from late 2006.

“Firefly was cancelled for a reason”

I'm not quite sure I get it. Is the argument supposed to be over the specific reason or that there is a reason? Is there conspiracy mongering about WHY Firefly was cancelled? And do I really want to know the answer to that question?
