That was exactly my first thought. I could easily come up with a weeklong agenda of necessary stuff for my job that is really, really fun to do. But longer than that and I'd have to do some stuff I really, really hate doing.

I know exactly what you mean! Ignore these jokers — you are right, you're racist, and so are they, and so am I. We all have awful prejudices because we've been raised in the world at this time in history. Really malignant racists will hopefully die off, but we'll still have the problem of how to move forward in a…

Yay, the hair! I can't wait! As a preteen, I was OBSESSED with Murphy Brown (it extended to a general obsession with Candice Bergen, too). So, I used to try to style my hair like Murphy Brown's... even though I'm black and wasn't allowed to relax my hair. I cut my own bangs! It did not go well!

I'll always think of Gina Torres as Cleopatra first. (Xena, not 2525!) But damnit, what is it going to take to make Gina as Wonder Woman happen? At this rate, she's going to be like 60 by the time we get a movie or TV show!

A college friend of mine brought up the "seven years ago" thing, and I was so confused because I'd always heard it as "several", but since then I've encountered so many people who hear "seven".

BTW, the line is that the Captain's wife died "several years ago", not seven years ago!

Somehow, I find this gif 10X more apt knowing that's a white dude.

i love you a little bit. that video.

Probably Bob Kaufman, but that's no excuse for not knowing that Ron Swanson is the man.

Perfect couple! I mean, if Dick could get a douchbag-ectomy and Mac could get over the whole almost raped by his brother who had raped Veronica, and then immediately afterwards killed a planeful of people and then himself. But if those two kids can overcome that, then they can overcome anything!

DUDE, what's with all the Dick-bashing?

I dunno, I think this gif has inspired some fanfic for me and I might just be #TeamPicard for VM now.

LoVe! ;)

thanks! Duh, I knew I was parsing it wrong, but I just could not figure out which word to change or where to add a comma or what to do. Probably doesn't help that I'm teh oldz, and I'm like, "HASHTAG, whut?" and it does sort of confuse my flow.

Hmm. I do know who the author is, and I still don't understand the quote. I think I'm parsing it wrong? What is she saying here?

?? That's what CrunchyCon says? Unless OP edited the comment, you may want to re-read.

This is not about YOU, this is about everyone on the road. You say you're an excellent driver, and you're fine at multitasking: for the sake of my argument, let's say that's true.

Nice! That was a plot on an episode of Hustle! That was the best show. I wish they'd get those crazy kids together again and make some more episodes.
