Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I find it amusing that I may have to talk to Google about a different position within their company from the land of no internet when I head back up to Michigan on Thursday to pick up my bridesmaid dress.

Dr. Horrible = adorkable.

msbelle, it might be how he breaks lines, and the couplety wordplay that makes it feel OMWF.

The evil league of evil!

And, the LAT weighs in on Dr. Horrible.

And another article which is a Q&A with Joss

And finally, it does have to be said that every time a shot wasn't perfect and we had to move on, we'd just proclaim "It's an Internet musical!" and comfort ourselves with the idea that it would all be very tiny.

Well. Yes and No.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I'm not sure I'll be down with the salad, it being salad and all, but it's definitely in the right direction, and over pasta just brilliant.
It's not a salad, salad though. Just crazy delicious things eaten together without being on pasta first. And now I want some. On pasta.

Does anyone know if Dr. Horrible is available in any other form than the website that doesn't work or iTunes, which doesn't work on my computer?

It's especially annoying if the cars ahead of you are wasting space, preventing you from getting into the left turn lane until they pull forward....

As is often the case, Tommyrot is me. Except that sometimes on my commute it even affects right-turn lanes, but the point here is HATE HATE HATE.

Oh, and...HATE!

And so that I'm not hating on JZ, because that would be really crazy:

I was rear-ended because the people behind me were following way too close despite shitty driving conditions, and when we all had to slam on our brakes they had no stopping room at all).

But they were following too close when you were moving, yes? When you're pulling up to a stop, I have no problem at all with leaving some extra room in front. (A friend would have probably been smooshed by a semi if she hadn't done that, so I definitely do factor that in with highway traffic.) But when you are stopped at a red light that came a tenth of a mile after the last red light, and the cars behind you are all stopped, there is no reason to continue to maintain 20 feet between you and the car in front. Every day I see people who sit with 5 cars lined up behind them, and they still need to leave extra room in front for some freaky reason. Sometimes if they skooched forward a few feet, I (and several other people) could get into the turn lane and be on our way, and everyone behind us would be happier as well.

And it's not so much that it's slowing me down because, really, my commute is short so I shouldn't whine (oh, too late) but... the total obliviousness to the fact that, yes, you have mass, and are blocking traffic for no damn reason makes me nuts. Social contract, people!

Um. And that's my rant for the evening. You're welcome.

Next week I'll discuss merging! (Subtitled, "If letting one car in front of you will make you late to work, maybe you should just get up 2 minutes earlier.")

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

The website has been working fine for me. I've watched at least three times this evening. It will eventually be available on DVD and I hear it is available on sites that those with scurvy often frequent.

Patiently waiting Strega's commentary on merging.

"sites that those with scurvy often frequent."

Um, huh? (I've never downloaded a movie in my life, so know nothing about it-bay orrent-tay, etc.)

Oh, well, in other things to watch on the intertubes, there's a new cartoon of Simon's Cat, the cartoon cat that likes to annoy his owner (in previous cartoons, he woke up his owner with a baseball bat to the eye and demanded entry through a glass door) and then point to his mouth, demanding food. This one is soooo my cat, demanding attention while I'm trying to watch TV.

At the DH website, all I keep getting is "This video is not available at this site."
