Yeah, having slept on it, it *is* quite nice and sweet. In a very weird sort of way.
Hey, I've been in a firefight before! Well, I was in a fire. Actually, I was fired from a fry-cook opportunity. I can handle myself.

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I agree, except for the weirdness, maybe. I think it's thoughtful. Death is weird and hard to us as is, so if there's a way to make it... more "appropriate", so to speak, I'm voting for it.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Plus, you get a whole of comfort mileage out of "that's what he would have wanted". I think it is wonderful that they were able to do that. I'm sorry for their loss, but so glad for them that they were able to give the young man a send-off with some joy to it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
When I read that article earlier, I liked the bit where the light flashed and the sound went at the end. I liked them being able to think of him as whirling off into the universe.

The status is NOT quo.
I'm x-posting from Bitches because I know most of the Boxed Set denizens will love this.
Jumping to the end to say that anyone who likes Bowie or 80s movies even a little bit must watch the best review of Labyrinth EVER. Warning: may cause you to spit coffee on your monitor.
Victor linked to this in LJ. LOVE.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Ha! That was excellent, Kristin.
"Package!" Indeed.
