Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I feel certain that college was not this cool when I attended.

I want to see the exam question about the ontological status of the cake.

I want to take that class!

Except, I already have. If someone could just lend me their lecture notes, I'll play through again....

Okay, I'm still talking to the Billy West/Zapp Brannigan guard robot as we chat, and the dialog is pee-your-pants funny.

Okay, I sort of fell down the rabbit hole about Portal. I didn't even know the game HAD a director's commentary.

And I'd always wondered about the name "Chell."

So I found this and his related articles very interesting: [link]

I'll have to read those articles later, but did they have any idea of the rabbit hole they were opening?

"Oh. It's you..."

CHILLS!

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

Does everybody remember that the Admiral's Quarters is damaged and that if we let Boomer out of the brig and she turns out to be a cylon the only way to get her back in again is to first repair the AQ or for me to use a quorum card?

So, just to clarify, that's true about anyone, right?

yes, that is correct.

The problem I'm having is that I don't have enough information to suspect anyone at this point so that leaves only Boomer as the most likely since she has an extra card.
