Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I'm just neutral about his offing.

I'm a little less-enthused than neutral. I understand the necessity, but it's all symbolic/political theater, in many ways. I don't think this will have any impact on day-to-day ops of Al Quaeda nor do I think it makes us safer.

Oh dear lord. My twins will not go to bed. Makes me want to cry.

Because books.

Amy, that's...weird. Fairly understandable, but hard to respond to.

It was. I love her dearly, I've known her since we were fourteen, but it surprised me. Not that she would be happy he was dead, but ... I don't know. She knew my brother was working with the SEALs last year, so.

See, I've read too many Suzanne Brockman books, and all I can picture is those guys killing Osama...and somehow having a hot romance in the middle of it...

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

You know, if I had been born on Jupiter or one of its moons, I would be turning four years old on Tues, Aug 21, 2012.

Thank god for friggin' contrarian Quebec, abandoning the separatist party for the NDP.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I really hated the zombies on the dolphins.

yeah, you need to break out the wall-nut or tall-nut for those damn things in the pool level.

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

That woman who wants to marry the rollercoaster? Am I the only one going to a Lars and the Real Girl kind of place?

It reminds me of this book, Lemon, by Lawrence Krauser. It's about a man and his, uh, relationship with a lemon.
