The problem with watching BtVS S7 on DVD or tape is that having already watched it once, I really don't feel the impulse to ever do so again (excepting "Conversations with Dead People" and "Chosen").

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

Cute animals respond to Fuck You, Penguin.

Fuck Me? No. Fuck You, Fuck You, Penguin

Wallaby: Suck My Ginormous Balls

Well, well, well.

Here I am just enjoying the day, getting my tan on, when out of nowhere, FUP here, takes a cheap shot at my nards. Hey, I can't help it if the paparazzi is all over me to take a few snaps at my large gifts.

Looks like someone is a little jealous. Does FUP have tiny, little balls? Are they the size of milk duds? Hey, we all can't have big cajones now, can we? Life isn't fair, FUP. DEAL WITH IT. And let me just say that the ladies deal with my bowling balls quite well. Are ladies having a hard time containing their laughter when they see your tiny skittles?

And I like how you try to disguise your large balls fetish by attacking the color of my fur. It's 2009 bitch. It's sad to see that you haven't learned about the concept of DIVERSITY. And unfortunately for you, the size of your nuts proves that there is diversity in that area to learn about too.

Sleep with one eye open FUP, or you just might wake up to a Wallaby teabagging.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

The problem with watching BtVS S7 on DVD or tape is that having already watched it once, I really don't feel the impulse to ever do so again (excepting "Conversations with Dead People" and "Chosen").

I have to evangelize just a little here--it's still by no means the best season, or even in the top three, but it's stunning how much the season improves on rewatching it all in one go instead of on the laggardly you-could-gestate-an-entire-child-between-episodes airing schedule. I don't think I've ever seen a single season of anything so completely wrecked by months-long gaps between episodes. Without the gaps, it's so much tighter, funnier, tenser, and so much less preachy and speechy.

Spring is here!

Ah, yes. The time-honored ritual of smearing the face with the first frozen drink of the spring.

Fiction World Rocked as Woman Claims No Sexual Attraction to Neil Gaiman:

At a recent book signing, Joan Green, 24, stunned her friends when she admitted that upon meeting Neil Gaiman, she did not find him attractive. “He was nice and all,” she confessed a few minutes after getting a copy of American Gods autographed. “But, he’s not, you know, my type.”

One of Green’s friends, speaking anonymously, said, “She’s lying. Everyone thinks he’s dreamy. Everyone. Even Hillary Clinton.”

Stormy Tombs, author of Britgeeksexgod: The Story of How Hot Neil Gaiman Is, agrees. “This is an obvious ploy for attention. Ms. Green must think she’s pulling some reverse psychology, like he’ll come running to her, entreating her in his gorgeous East Grinstead accent, begging her softly for her love with his full lips and scruffy, occasional beard. It won’t work. He loves only me.” Ms. Tombs went on to say that her book, due out this fall, will feature a scratch-and-sniff page replicating the scent of his leather jacket, a fold-out spread of his autograph-calloused middle finger and several dozen poems about his hair. Tombs claims she and Gaiman will some day marry under a canopy of glittery spiderwebs in an abandoned tube station.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

yeah, but there are still basic plot points that send me into a feminist rage black out, plus the part where it's Nikki Wood's fucking coat.

So it is For The Skipping.

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

I wish they would just stop making him try to play American.

He seemed seamless in The Guardian, but that was a lot slower show.

Squeez Bacon®

Vilhelm Lillefläsk’s Squeez Bacon® is fully cooked 100% bacon. Due to the patented electro-mechanical process by which Squeez Bacon® is rendered, it requires no preservatives or other additives. Each serving is as healthy as real bacon, and equivalent to 4 premium slices of bacon! You can put it on sandwiches, pizza, pastas, bacon, soups, pies, eat it hot or cold (warm Squeez Bacon® on toasted rye is to die for), substitute it for bacon in your recipes, or even eat it right out of the tube like we do! If it’s edible, it’s better with Squeez Bacon®.

From Think Geek. Probably only available today, April 1.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

In the middle of crazy week:

last night was the aformentioned karate test, tomorrow mac has appointments at the brace people and then the orthopedic surg (x-rays only/tracking progress) and then therapy (so no work for me and no school for him), fri we're getting our baseball on which requires leaving work early and getting him early (plus will mean a later then normal night and very probably no homeowrk getting done), sat 8am pick-up of rental car and then loading furniture and 4 hours on the road.

So tonight is our only night at home and I am going to pick up Eth food so we can have it tonight. Hopefully it will work some magic and make the rest of the week smooth sailing.

I wonder if they typed that with a straight face.
