Oh that drives me nuts.
I am a large, semi-muscular man. I can take it. Don't hide behind Mal 'cause you know he'll shoot it down for you. Tell me.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I'm with brenda. Not being a gamer or reading The Hobbit or LOTR is one thing (although in my neck of the woods those things all fit under "normal" for definitions that include "commonly shared, but not universal, traits"), but not knowing what a "death star" is?

but not knowing what a "death star" is?
Seriously, seems like that's part of the "cultural psyche" by now, like knowing who Romeo & Juliet or Adam & Eve are, despite never having read Shakespeare or the Bible.
Weird.

I dunno. Not everyone is going to know Adam & Eve is an adult products website.

I remember once having to explain to someone what the Hound of the Baskervilles was ... of course, this was the same person who needed to have "opposable thumbs" explained ....

Is there a different explanation than Sherlock Holmes?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Still around? Wow. I remember seeing their flimsy little catalogs sitting around the common room in college.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I could tell you Hound of the Baskervilles is a Sherlock Holmes story but that's about it. Part of me thinks it's werewolf-y but another part of me thinks there's no supernatural in Sherlock Holmes stories.

No supernatural Hound ... although the villain tried to give the impression of something supernatural. I think he'd seen the Far Side "poodle of the Baskervilles" and had to have the humor explained. At which point it stopped being funny. The opposable thumbs was also because of a Far Side cartoon. huh ... maybe the Far Side collections should come with annotations.
