I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

In case Jesse missed Dinosaur comics recently.

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

Someone on WX just used the phrase "nuked the fridge" to mean "jump the shark." Has anyone ever heard that before?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What msbelle said.

I still want Graeters ice cream.

"nuked the fridge"

Maybe it has something to do with the most recent Indiana Jones movie?

Not condoning just trying to find an explanation.

"nuked the fridge"

Yes, it started showing up not long after the movie came out. Here's a posting from June, 2008: [link]

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I predict that rightfully, 'nuked the fridge' will be replaced by 'hit the White House with a tidal wave AND an aircraft carrier.'

I'm gonna stick with "jumped the shark" methinks. The WX poster says she got chewed out for JTS usage, which is just pissy.

Swouncing

Skipping on the computer of one of my roommates (my own computer stopped talking to the internet. I guess that after I didn't have any voice to speak of, or with, for a week, my virus somehow got passed along to my computer. They should study us in labs! Which have internet access, of course. Um, where was I? Oh, yeah).

So, since I'm not sure I'm going to be able to monopolize my roommate's room on time tomorrow, I'll post a day early that, according to the Buffista Calendar, tomorrow, the 25th, will be vw bug's birthday, and send her lots of early wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

[Edited to wave to the new thread. If a thread gets 30k posts, then even the five-hundreds are still considered a sorta low number, right?]

Neither is as good as "run from the killer frost" however.
