Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

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

Auspicious and suspicious should be spelt more differently.

You know that fiction device where a character sees one thing, shakes their head, and then sees the real thing. I didn't know that happened for real, but I swore I saw a poster advertising the law services of one Mark Sheppard, but then I shook my head and looked again, and it was a Persian surname I'll get wrong if I take a stab at it.

I SWEAR it was Sheppard the first time, though. Can the aliens do that? Should they, while I'm in my car?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Glitch in the Matrix, I say.

Yikes, sarameg. Hope it's a quickly fixable thing.

In shallow news, Doctor Who from last night still isn't showing up on On Demand yet. Sad. Maybe by later tonight. I guess it still hasn't been a full 24 hours for another 45 minutes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have that with people all the time.

I've been defeated by Captcha. If you saw, "the second color in cow, pink, yellow, and brown is _____?" What would your answer be?

Yellow.

Yeah, that's what I wrote. Twice. No dice. I think I broke it.

Weird.

That is EXACTLY what it felt like, but I couldn't find the right reference.

JenP, that's why I keep our "captcha" simple. Unfortunately, it's simple enough that a human can change a script to flood signups, but at least a robot can't do it (yet) on its own.

Yeah, that was actually the first question Captcha like that that I've run in to, so I figured I'd double check that I wasn't just being deeply stupid. I kind of look forward to seeing how they resolve my issue. I think I'm now locked out anyway because I tried too many times.
