I do not like shawarma (tzatziki sauce on lamb is not for me), but I did make falafels last night and will be having them in pitas with cucumber, tomato, and garlic sauce for my next couple of meals.
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I don't like pickles in any form, so that puts me off some Mediterranean dishes as they are prepared here.

Shwarma is the meat in gyros, right? In which case, NOM.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
no. I think it is the sauce and related fixings. I have had chicken Shwarma (sp?) before. I could not take it because of the pickles.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
this Tumblr for thoughtful Avengers fannish squee. Not even squee, just intriguing analysis
Dang, Hec, you shouldn't have shared that link! I want to read the whole Tumblr, and instead I have to edit shit about postoperative atrial fibrillation.
Guess which one is more interesting.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
Am I me, or am I Greg House? Although he'd probably prefer the Avengers, too.

I am full of woe. The advance reviews of Dark Shadows are confirming all my fears the trailer caused. And yet, I still want to go see it. Tim, why are you making it so hard to be a fan of your work?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The advance reviews of Dark Shadows are confirming all my fears the trailer caused.
Uh-oh.
I'll probably still see it, but the probability of me seeing it is inversely proportional to the number and intensity of negative reviews.

One review said "As if the pitch was Addams Family plus Austin Powers, with some Brady Bunch thrown in". This makes me very wary.
ETA: Especially because I'm one of the few people who really didn't like Austin Powers. I do not want that in a Tim Burton movie, and ESPECIALLY one that's supposed to be about vampires. Tim, this was supposed to be Sweeney Todd + Beetlejuice, dammit!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Matilda is fascinated by the Dark Shadows billboards and commercials. She asked if it was scary, and I said "A little scary, but more funny."
She nodded and said, "Like that movie with the baby that had the moustache?" (Addams Family Values)
So I think that's the best case scenario.
