"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

ohh Angry Bob! (does anbody else remember the movie Hardware?)

Late to the...ahem...game, but YES!!!

Female stoner industrial artist hero, who is capable of saving herself. Dystopic future. Iggy Pop as the voice of Angry Bob. Combat robot run amok.

Don't forget the geeky sidekick who's tripping on acid for most of the movie. Played by that UK actor who I'm memfaulting on, but I swear several Buffista women have lusted after.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

I am totally hooked on GTA4! Addicted!

Oh, and my Xbox name is Pixie, I think. I never play games live, so I'm not sure. I logged on as NoiseDesign at first but then switched over. We saw you online, Pete, and ND rolled his eyes and said, "Of course Pete's online." He's Mr. MockyPants.

ETA: And Omnis, of course you're welcome to come up! I'm feeling much better. Laga and ND are going to Disneyland tomorrow, and obviously I'm not well enough to join. My plan is to play GTA4 until my thumbs fall off.

Your Pixie account isn't on Xbox Live though, it's just local on the Xbox.

Ah. Okay then, nebbermind.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Laga and ND are going to Disneyland tomorrow

we are?! OMGSQUEE! ND if you want to pick me up earlier I can be ready at 11. And we can skip the comic book shop... there will be another free comic book day next year. Wheeeee! ::twirl::twirl::twirl::

That's been the plan for weeks, silly girl. We've talked about it, remember? Or emailed about it, anyway. I was going to go with you, but alas. I hope you two have fun, though.

I only knew we were going someplace.

Disneyland

wait, that's where The Mouse lives. ND's not bringing a rifle, is he?

Huh, I checked the email chain and I guess we never explicitly said Disneyland. I thought at some point we'd let you know what the plan was.

Yeah, I'm happy to get going earlier, name your time.

And no, I'm not bringing a rifle, but I will be kicking your ass on the Buzz Lightyear ride.

If I wasn't working all day tomorrow, I'd love to go to Disneyland for the day.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

KT, I'm going to try and wake up early enough to visit the Toyota Dealership. I'll ring ya up when I'm done there, or.. er... wake up.
