Uh, we don't have Portal, or play it at other peoples' houses, but somehow The Boy found YouTube clips of it, and he now LOVES GLaDOS. Like, loves in the way that woman loves the roller coaster. If I hear that theme song one more time I'm going to shank him.
I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
I'm making a note here: huge success.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Took me to the same judgmental place, but that movie brought out the worst in me.
It took me to a different one and I feel kind of bad about it. Because the movie kind of invites you to diagnose him so I felt OK about it. This woman? She really doesn't.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I'm sorry, Sue.
Lokis goes weird
Loki is doing some extreme yoga there.
I don't play Portal (much) either, but I totally dig GLaDOS.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think if that woman were my friend I'd react similarly to how I'd react to Lars. And that's not as nicely as everyone else in the movie reacted. I couldn't pretend I thought it was normal.

What exactly are they watching? Presumably something related to the Bin Laden mission.
Another amazing picture encapsulating "My Nation of Dumbasses" celebrating Bin Laden's death as if it were a college basketball game.

They are watching footage and/or listening to the radio transmissions from the ground operation as it is happening.
