Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

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

I think the kind of people that are going to flock to Netflix are more likely to get territorial about the market space. You're going to get people who think it's important you like Blade Runner more than Serenity.

She says, entirely uncharitably. I don't think the average consumer cares where their movie came from, not passionately. The people who bother to hate Blockbuster or Redbox are probably some sort of avid side-chooser from way back.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Thanks for the smile!

I think you're right. I think there are people who will go to AMC because they want to see Arthur on Friday, and there are people who will go to Magnolia and see whatever's playing.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

I'm surprised I'm not more tired than I am, given that a) I stayed up until 11:30 to watch the championship game, b) I had trouble falling asleep, even with the Trazadone and c) I was awakened at 4:30 am by the storm.

And I have to get up early tomorrow for a dentist appointment. Whee.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

DJ, I think it's good you have both virtual and real shoulders to cry on, and I have definitely found Irish punk to be quite comforting myself.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I was quite happy to have both Netflix and a local Hollywood Video that I could browse at. The latter had well-stocked foreign movies and cult movies sections, and I could impulse-rent based on my mood of the moment instead of trying to predict what I'd feel like watching several days in advance. My hatred for Blockbster was specific to the chain, and it more than earned it in its dealings with me.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Help me, hivemind! I need to write a description for a panel I'm hosting at a local convention. It's the usual sort of Gothic Charm School Q&A thing, and the con is an anime/Japanese pop culture sort of thing. Lots of Gothic Lolitas and alterna-kids attend.

I have NO idea what to write for a panel description. Help?

not your mom's socks.

sounds like a cool moment for some history-of-Goth &/or Anime? Find your family tree/Gothic lineage workshop?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

What's the panel on, Jilli?
