They don't want people to read other people's comments. Which they can put a big check mark in the "Achieved" column for. The motive beyond that I can't speak to, but they did go on record as saying "read fewer other people's stuff".

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

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
Oldish movie anecdote: Ever since seeing Evolution with David Duchonvy, my brother and I have adopted the "ka ka!" as a way to find each other in shopping malls and other places, and it also became a way to get the dog to come back in from the back forty (the joke started as us singing "You. Are. So beautiful. To ME!" which then led to shouts of "ka ka! Tukki tukki tukki!"). My dad's cockatiel sings ka ka tukki tukki.
At work today I went down looking for our facilities manager, and called out "ka ka!". I heard answered back "tukki tukki!".
Apparently, this is how he fetches his four year old son from school.
IO oldish movie remarks, I'm watching A Knight's Tale again, and I just love how the love letter is used to add depth to the other characters in the story, rather than just be a treacle interlude easily fast-forwarded through. Still such a wonderful movie.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
P-C,
I saw a movie you might like. It was on Netflix streaming and it is called Headhunters. I myself found the movie entertaining, but didn't love it. The tone is kind of off in places. Beau was outraged toward the beginning and wanted to turn it off.
I thought the end of the film rewarded seeing the whole thing, so that's primarily why I think you might like it. And it is quirky - so that may appeal to you. It is Danish (or Swedish), so there are subtitles and the lead character is an art thief. That's all I will say.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Have y'all seen the Honest Trailer for Avengers? Pretty funny, too. (have not seen Prometheus, myself) [link]
