I Tivo'd Raisin; housemate loved it but he is a sap. ;)
I could totally see the actor who played Wire's Bodie in the role, and I join Erika in the Bodie love.
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm phoned into the meeting from hell, and there's a mutterer in there. I guess I should ask him to speak more clearly, but I'm getting a fair amount of work done, so I don't feel pressed.
Most people agree that the meeting is a colossal waste of time, but that doesn't stop it from being a daily emotional 90 minutes out of our work day. EVERY DAY.

I have a monthly conference call with someone who doesn't know how to use the OI&*U%# mute button. So, we hear him breathing, tapping his pen, his clothing rustling, etc. Ugh.

Yeah. But nothing will ever be as poignant as Wallace pointing out that Hamilton was never a president. Sigh. Still makes me teary. Damn you, David Simon.

What do you say to someone when they just refuse to do something about a situation that is their fault. It's not a big enough deal to make a stink over, but it's bullshit
Here's the sitch -- I have a storage area in my new place. I didn't pay for it. There is no light in the area. First, they gave me some bullshit about how it was open at the top for light to come in, etc. Then, when I called them on that (because that wasn't true), they said "there's nothing I can do" Now, it's not something to sue over, but it's bullshit that they're just refusing to address the issue. I didn't pay for it, so I can't get my money back (which I would demand if I had), but I want to say something to garner a response.
