Am I just too much of a sap for words if I admit that, having finally gotten around to watching the Discovery Channel Boom-De-Yada commercial on YouTube, I keep rewatching it because it's just so cool and makes me feel all optimistic and happy? I mean, it's a commercial. But it makes me grin. (See shiny new tag.)
Mal: You tell me right now, little Kaylee, you really think you can do this? Kaylee: Sure. Yeah. I think so. 'Sides, if I mess up, not like you'll be able to yell at me.

And skipping once again, sigh, to post that, according to the Buffista Calendar, today is sj's birthday.
Happy birthday, sj! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year.
Also, it's Beverly's and her DH's anniversary, so lots of wishes for the day and the coming year for them, as well.

Happy birthday, sj!
You guys made me laugh so hard it brought tears to my eyes this morning. Thank you. Blessed be links.

Happy birthday, sj! Happy anniversary, Beverly and DH!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
This is what I'm saying about Kate Schindle! She actually has a career other than "former Miss America"!
I went to college with her! t /name-drop

yes, USA, be proud that your national costume is a sequined bikini and some kind of Lake Placid-inspired torture wheel. Very proud.
Miss New Zealand should be doing a hakka. Roll the eyes back, bug 'em out, stick your tongue out... that would win it for her.
This is an awesome link meara. OTOH, I kind of like Britain's national costume - though I have no idea if that constitutes flag-abuse or not. She looks like Miss Thailand would have her as an appetizer though.
Miss Korea should be a contender. [link]
happy birthday sj! fellow sun-house person!

I mean, it's a commercial. But it makes me grin.
Yeah, but it's a fairly unique commercial. Instead of saying, "You're not cool/thin/rich/pretty/young/safe/fed/well-dressed/equipped enough, so buy this crap," it's saying, "The world is awesome! Check it out! (ideally on our channel)." Such a different message, and one I can really get behind.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Happy Birthday, sj!

I'd seen the World=Awesome commercial a while ago, but I watched it again this weekend when people were linking and I have been earwormed with Boom De Yada for DAYS. And the baby sings it too now.
