Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I even used the moon card in my Firefly pitch.

How do you explain the moon thing?

I find it hard to explain being murdered twice.

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

How do you explain the moon thing?

It's actually how the TV conversation started, so it kinda slipped out. We were talking about namesakes in pop culture, and I was talking about a song I knew with his name in it, and moaning that I didn't have any songs. (While cheering that I didn't have to share my name with many people).

Then I remembered I had a moon, and I had to admit to that. Which I quickly segued into recommending Firefly and other TV shows because he was looking at me funny. But I guess I'm pretty much out as fandom, except I don't think he fully gets what fandom is. Maybe I'm just out as people who know people who do random shit like that.

You could suggest a book about fandom!

Tom Hardy should replace Sam Worthington in everything. My sister and I are currently having an email fight about whose film Inception was--Tom or Joseph's. Can't sway me from my JGL love, although I was definitely feeling Hardy. And that pout.

You could suggest a book about fandom!

Last time I did that, my then-coworker found my LJ. Homie don't play that no more.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Situation: There's an older man (sixties, maybe) who parks in the lot at work (a public garden) for hours, several days a week. He never gets out, that I've seen. I thought he was weird for not finding a picnic bench to actually enjoy the gardens. My colleagues picked up on his presence and were also weirded out. They think he's a pedophile, what with all of our numerous children's programs. They gave his license plate number to the police, who won't confirm or deny their suspicions. The ED told me and the rest of us that the best way to dissuade his presence, someone "who fits that profile" is notice him, talk to him, bother him, until he packs up and finds another park to creep on.

Question: What the fuck if he's not? What if we're harassing an old guy with bad knees looking for a quiet spot to read? And does the vague possibility that he's a pedo outweigh the possibility that he's a harmless dude? Is this the best course of action? Would it be better to go up and say "You're creeping us out? Please explain yourself" than to just harass him? This isn't something I want to fuck around with, but I also don't want to slander and harass someone who's innocent.
