IME, there's only one way to watch The OC: stay up until 3am with smonster and amyth squeeing at the pretty and snarking at the shallow and possibly being just a little very drunk. And then you never, ever have to watch it again, but you can get the references.

The forth season of the OC was also good. Ryan was funny.

The first season of The OC is actually good, I maintain. And the last season is fun. Inbetween is sheer torture (how did they forget the funny?), but I'm a purist, and I do shit like that. And I love Ryan.

I've heard at least that sentiment in our local sports pages.

I just think the sentence has semantic fail. Make a case for LeBron as all time, sure. All time of this generation? What can that even mean?

Someone just came up to me and addressed me by name and I have no idea how she knew who I was. Why do people do that? Why don't they introduce themselves? Now I have to check emails and see if I can guess who she is.

C Eric Forman, because he's whiny

M Seth Cohen, because we could combine comic collections

F Ryan Atwood, for the heck of it.

F Jack Harkness, because you KNOW he'd be good

M Jack O'Neill, because he is AWESOMESAUCE

C Jack Carter, because I have weird fourth wall issues due to casting

Huh. So apparently some guy on another team does not understand that opening one request and then just adding to it as stuff comes to you is not a reasonable way to manage said request.

It's like making a dentist's appointment to get your teeth cleaned and then halfway through that procedure asking to get braces, and then halfway through that asking for a whitening and so on and so forth in the original request that was opened on 4/19 there were 6 separate things to be done. Then in the comments section dude added starting on 4/22 up until 5/18 he added 4 more.

How were we supposed to track those?

I think talking about sports in eras makes sense. We do that all the time in baseball. Pitchers and hitters have different challenges in various eras (and obviously are playing different opponents), so it's hard to judge who's the best of "all time".

And I am the girl who doesn't recognize BB's home run record. And no, not because of steroids, but because of Josh Gibson. So, I won't say Barry hit the most of all time. And we're also missing video evidence for the first half to 2/3s of MLB; so I don't know if Barry Bonds, for instance, had a better read off the bat than, say, Al Kaline?

Anyway, parsing up the eras makes room for lots more lists, and if there's anything a sports nut likes, it's lists!

Then say LeBron is the best of his generation. Just not the best of his generation of all time. That's the part I object to.

I would like to lobby for people to M Jack Carter. I'm just not gonna do it. But he's an awesome dad.

I'd totally M Jack Carter. And, predictably, F Jack Harkness.

F Jack Harkness
C Jack O'Neill
M Jack Carter

I would say M Jack Harkness, but I'm not enough woman to keep him.

Just not the best of his generation of all time. That's the part I object to.

Oh, I didn't catch that! You're right; that's ridic!
