People say stuff like that to us a lot, "ooh, you're so authentic!" But I think what they mean is, "ooh, you have no tact!"
Wash: You want a slinky dress? I can buy you a slinky dress. Captain, can I have money for a slinky dress? Jayne: I'll chip in. Zoe: I can hurt you.

I just met my boss's boss. His first comment was "I've heard your name so much, I feel like I've already met you". He said it with a smile, so I'm taking that as a good thing. Still...eeeep.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

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

Brazil actor playing Judas dies from accidental hanging
A Brazilian actor has died after accidentally hanging himself while playing Judas in an Easter Passion play.
Tiago Klimeck, 27, was enacting the suicide of Judas during the performance on Good Friday in the city of Itarare.
The actor was hanging for four minutes before fellow performers realised something was wrong.
Klimeck was taken to hospital suffering from cerebral hypoxia but died on Sunday.
The Passion play was being performed in Itarare, 345km (214 miles) west of Sao Paulo.
Klimeck was re-enacting the scene in which Judas commits suicide in repentance for his betrayal of Jesus Christ.
Police are investigating the apparatus that was meant to support Klimeck. It appears the knot may have been wrongly tied.

My fingers are crossed it will land OK. It will use a never-before-tried landing technique called a Sky Crane.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Sky Crane.
Isn’t that how Willy Wonka’s glass elevator worked?

Possibly. Did Willy Wonka's glass elevator have rockets?

"Authenticity" is one of the great bullshit standards.
For reals.
