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

Chatty!co-worker's dream since childhood has been to be an artist for DC or Marvel. He also happens to be married with a child. His priority is his supporting his family, and he works on his art in his spare time.

He also recently got a freelance gig with Marvel.

Oh! Good for him! Wasn't he the one who did that one thing that one time?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Wasn't he the one who did that one thing that one time?

He did! The thing with the stuff.

Now tagless for your comfort.

That's awesome. I hope he continues to succeed!

Cash, you're a roller derby STAR.

There's a reason they made me head of PR. I'm obviously not afraid to talk about derby to ANYONE. That reminds me, I have to go to the mayor's office and drop off his complimentary tickets today.

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

Oh, Cash--we got Lily's homework folder back last night, and the Flat Stanley photo collection is priceless!

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'd say Lady Gaga has "personality" rather than charisma or looks, but we may be using different words for the same thing (and I think it's what Glee called "theatricality"). Love or hate her, but you can't ignore her.

Or more simply, she has "It." And I don't have a specific definition. But it's the star quality Ann Margret had in a stage production of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas when she (a lady of a certain age wearing a pantsuit) sang with a chorus of negligee-clad young women -- and all eyes in the audience were on her.

He totally enjoyed the derby practice.

(But seriously. This is the same guy who published an independent comic this one time that I totally meant to ask my comic book store to look into ordering but I didn't because I forgot the name and stuff?)

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

Love or hate her, but you can't ignore her.

Meh. No, you can. I don't get the fuss.

He is -- it's called Fyre Dragon. There are 4 issues (maybe 5?) out.

Because books.

Or more simply, she has "It."

I think she does have talent. And she worked the "It" factor pretty well in the beginning, but now she's running the risk of being nothing but gimmick.
