Wash: Don't fall asleep now. Sleepiness is weakness of character. Ask anyone. You're acting captain. Know what happens you fall asleep now? Zoe: Jayne slits my throat, and takes over. Wash: That's right. Zoe: And we can't stop it.

and possibly in a different mood

I think my amusement comes from my own mood of late.

Dark. Obviously.

I use "please advise" all the time and don't consider it all that passive agressive.

I guess it depends on how you use it. Whenever I get "please advise", it usually means a disdainful "something's broken/not working and it's ALL YOUR FAULT."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I can't title this better than the blog did: Faith the Two-legged Dog: Inspiring Story of Overcoming Adversity or SCARIEST UNCANNY VALLEY SHIT YOU'VE EVER SEEN?. Go on. It's only 2 minutes plus of your life.

Compassionately intolerant

The Tot-tanic belongs on The Mighty Boosh. Yep. Tasteless.

Is Yahoo!Mail making anyone else login every five seconds, or am I just special?

Not my answer until I played the clip, but Uncanny Valley like WOAH.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Go on. It's only 2 minutes plus of your life.

Warning: Do not watch while high.

Heh.

It is freakier than a thing that is freaky.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I guess it depends on how you use it. Whenever I get "please advise", it usually means a disdainful "something's broken/not working and it's ALL YOUR FAULT."

I could understand that. In my case, it always means, "I'm fucking clueless so tell me what to do, please!"

Ann, that's a ferret.

I tend to use "please advise" as shorthand for "you're the boss, and I know you'd throw a fit if I made this decision on my own, so tell me what to do, please."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I would have been using it for "Look, it's obvious we're going around in circles, and I'm tired, so I've laid it out for you and what are you going to do now?"

Just in two words.
