amych offers more on the heartbreak of knitting benders:
Knitting benders totes exist, and it ain't pretty. Or rather, it's very pretty until you find yourself at 5 in the morning with a whole new project because you rolled right into it after finishing the old one because you just had to dig into that new yarn and DAMN. Your hands. Damn.
In Buffista Movies 7:
billytea:
According to IMDB, he's 187 cm tall, which would certainly dwarf me; Evans is listed as 184 cm, so while shorter, isn't that much shorter. (The tallest Avenger is Chris Hemsworth at 191 cm. Ruffalo and Downey Jr, and Johanssen of course, are all shorter than I am.)
bon bon:
SPEAK ENGLISH.
Dana, in Procedurals, on the government:
I have never met a group of people more enamored with cutesy acronyms and logos that they put together in MS Paint using Comic Sans.
Allyson in Natter:
They should offer comeback classes in the style of Krav, where they spin you around, shut out the lights, and stick their foot up your ass while saying some sexist shit and you have to come up with awesome one-liners in 5 seconds in order to get your blue belt in street harassment comebacks.
Jilli in natter:
Ha! As a fellow cat person, I'm going to make more of an effort to refer to mine as FURRY RECIDIVISTS, because that's what they are.
In Natter:
Over-Invested Cat Lady: Are their children pets?...NO...and neither are ours.
Jessica: No...but your cats are. Unless there's more to this story than I want to know.
Movies:
Polter-Cow:
‘G.I. Joe: Retaliation’ Moving To March 2013 To Add 3D For Bigger Foreign Box Office.
I know no one here was actually waiting for this movie, but this is such a bizarre piece of news. One month from its release date, it gets pushed back nine months ? (Also, does it really take that long to do 3D??)
Matt tBF:
To make a Channing Tatum character three-dimensional they're going to have to invent whole new technologies.
billytea in Natter:
Even before you pull out your razor, a cat in the shower is having a very bad day.
In Procedurals, Ginger’s version of Elisabeth Röhm’s character being fired from Law & Order:
BRANCH
You're a decent attorney, but in this office, we need attorneys who have more than one facial expression.
SERENA
I was born without facial expressions. I shouldn't be punished for it.
(pause)
Does Jack feel as strongly about this as you do?
BRANCH
No. But it's my office and my decision. He might have fought for more for you if he had slept with you, but you're a lesbian.
Zenkitty in Natter: I am immensely frustrated by faux pockets. They're almost worse than just not having any hint of pockets at all. It's a tease. "There could have been a pocket here! Fuck you! Try to put your hands in these pockets! Whoops, you can't! Fuck you, lady! You don't get pockets!"
