I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It made a grim day oh so much better :)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Why do I keep expecting Caputo to do what an even halfway decent human being would do? He never does, and yet, I keep thinking he might.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I've been caught up on OitNB for about an hour now and I think I've stopped weeping, but the allergies aren't fully under control. Damn. That show is so much more than it was in the first season. It certainly is not a show for escapism.

Stranger Things: I'm enjoying Winona's performance, it's well-made, but it's not something that I've never seen before. Smart of Netflix to schedule it in the middle of the summer.

Stranger Things is homage-y as hell. Only saw first ep but loved it.

I've made it to Episode 5 of Stranger Things and it's derivative/homagey and the theme is way to reminiscent of Daredevil, but I'm still enjoying it. Even though I'm getting major deja-vu from every plot twist.

huh. We're only through the 4th episode but I don't get that at all.

It sounds like it to me. the minimalism and even the same notes. I could be wrong, the Daredevil theme gets more complex as it goes along and this shows theme is very short compared to it, but I keep thinking it's very similar to my ear.
