I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

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

Monstrous extinct animals. Some of which I knew about, but that shark and that "centipede" are the stuff of nightmares. No one tell Syfy.

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

No one tell Syfy.

Heh. I think I'll start work on my new script for SyFi - Hipsterpede! A genetic experiment to create a half-hipster, half ancient centipede goes horribly awry....

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

Heh. I think I'll start work on my new script for SyFi - Hipsterpede! A genetic experiment to create a half-hipster, half ancient centipede goes horribly awry....

Yes, they start out like this.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

That never stops being CREEPY.

Discoveries of the morning, clearly known by people more In Tune than myself, but still pleasing: Johnny Weir + Lady GaGa = DoubleplusFABULOUS.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously, none more fabulous. I keep meaning to see his new show.

When I hear Poker Face now, I substitute, "Even when it's bold italic."

I have trouble with "Poker Face" because all I hear is "poke, poke, poke her face."

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

They just did a huge Lady Gaga marathon on Fuse and interviewed her.

She wrote "Poker Face" about having sex with her boyfriend and hoping that he couldn't read from her expression that she'd rather be with a woman at that point.

I am such a fogey. I fail to get Lady GaGa, even ironically. eta: and her interviews make it even worse

I want to go home now.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have never been chased by a herd of hispters, but I suppose if I could figure out the right thing to shout in a rock club or the local vegetarian restaurant

Just yell "PBR sucks!!!"
