I just listened to a hilarious podcast that I definitely must recommend to all Mythbusters fans -- Adam Savage is the guest, and there's lots of Jamie stories/impressions and show trivia. Also it was hilarious. So anyone would enjoy it. (Especially the story about movie prop forum kerfuffles.) [link]
This here's a recipe for unpleasantness.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Aww man, I thought it meant that they were filming an episode of House set in a steampunk universe.

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

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Also, lucky.
That too. Ergo, since he slept with Dazzler, she must have redeeming qualities.
Hmm. He makes the second hot three-fingered X-Man. Now I feel weird. Or maybe it's just that the X-Men are pretty hot (well, not Scott or Hank), and the fingers thing is moot.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hank is the Beast, right? He's hot. I'd totally do Beast. He's the best of them all, if'n you ask me.

I'd totally do Beast.
And so would Agent Brand. She has a really big gun.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I keep noticing people doing this same thing with the elevator in my office building, and I really don't get it. You enter the building on a sort of landing, which is G on the elevator buttons. The landing has an elevator door and a set of about six stairs up to the first floor. Nothing else on the landing. The elevator will stop at both G and 1, so that people who can't use stairs can get to 1 without using those six stairs. The elevator also goes up to the higher floors of the building. Just about every time I go into the building and get on the elevator at that landing, there will be someone who enters at the same time, walks up those six stairs to the first floor, and presses the button to get the elevator there. Why not just get on the elevator right where they entered the building? It makes it really annoying because the elevator doors take forever to open, so stopping at 1 to collect the person who could have gotten on at G adds about a full minute to the elevator ride.
