Referring to some talk upthread. I will occasionally make jokes about the fact that I am a fat dude. People who don't want me to dislike them intensely don't make the same jokes about me.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

You don't watch L&O: UK?

There's a L&O UK??

Looking at IMDB, I see he's been in lots of things on British TV that passed me by. This is the one place where the 'I hate UK TV' thing counts against me.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

There's a L&O UK??

With Jamie Bamber AND Freema Agyeman!

I don't watch it. But a friend of mine has been posting amusing picspams.

Is it actually worth me breaking my near-total* moratorium on UK TV for?

*I watch Doctor Who, Torchwood and Being Human. And those via the internet.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I wonder if he is the one who came up with the whole mind-wipe, switch-out personality thing or if he refined the idea. Or if he just does it really well. Do we know?

It's explained in Epitaph 1 that Topher didn't come up with the idea but he figured out a way to make the process go much faster. It used to take hours to do an implant and now it takes minutes.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Ah, thanks, Jon. I've been meaning to watch it. It's on iTunes. Guess I better get at it.

That makes me feel better about Topher. He's a geek, but not an evil genius.

Sepinwall put it really well:

He's worked so hard and so fast proving he was the smartest kid in the room that he's only now coming to realize he should have slowed down to ask "Should I do this?" before he asked "Can I do this?"

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

I don't like Adelle's new haircut. It makes her look far less scary-authority person and too vulnerable. Topher, OTOH, suddenly pinging me as super hot. Maybe it's the tight tshirt?

or the conscience?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Biceps and a conscience can be a powerful combo.
