Oh, certainly. Also, if an IT guy exaggerates a bit, but then his boss didn't understand the explanation a major game of telephone starts as things go up the chain.

Making fun of the hysterics is all well and good, but suggesting that the money was all misspent is the frustrating part.

A lot of times, you have to sell security as a secondary effect. Like, "make your operations cheaper/more efficient! (and, incidentally, more secure)".

Does seem like just a matter of time.

See, this is the problem with working in computer security. If you do your job right, then everyone starts questioning the expense because nothing happened. I know people who worked really hard to make sure that Y2K was the non-event that it was, and who were waiting right up until midnight waiting to hear that…

This is currently showing up right next to a GJI article about a chimpanzee throwing shit at someone, which seems like the perfect (albeit unintentional) commentary on Sean Spicer.

It isn't a surprise to me, since my most Fox News/Trump-y relatives are the ones who can't afford health insurance without Obamacare. In fact, one of them almost died because of her uninsured state, but still….

I agree, she pulled it back at the end. She does make it sound sort of like an either/or proposition, though, and I think it's both in a lot of cases. That is, stress frequently makes existing issues worse or more apparent.

Does it have to be metaphorical?

And unfunny? Hmm…we'll have to take those allegations seriously, then.

I get what she was trying to say about how emotional problems and medical can interrelate, but as someone with lots of autoimmune sufferers in her family, just wanted to point out that it can be two things. Sure, stress can make a lot of medical things worse, but that doesn't mean there's nothing to diagnose and…

For Ben 10: I don't think so, but I don't know - they didn't specifically say, but it didn't feel like a pilot.

It's quite a contrast when compared to how ubiquitous the feminine version is. I'd expect that that 2013 one, at least, might have been an intentional inversion of the cliche. 1933-1990 is a pretty long dry spell.

I'm a big fan of the Adventure Time opening sequence - it very quickly zooms past all the main characters and settings, and sets the tone for the show really nicely. The alternate version they did for their Islands miniseries was cute, too. Of course, when my toddler asks us to play it 10 times in a row, I become…

Exactly - the most important thing about her is whose wife she is. And anyways, if she's working in the zoo and with the animals, isn't *she* a zookeeper?

Thanks! Our tv habits have changed a lot since the toddler started having opinions about what's on tv. She's not got a lot of patience for anything live action, but loves anything animated or muppet-y, especially if there's music.

That's sort of disappointing. I think I'd like it more if they really never did any hero-ing at all, and then maybe had a great big battle in their series finale. Having it be just once in a very long while seems sort of half-assed.

Btw, which Disney shows are you watching? I had been watching Gravity Falls, but I don't think I'm following anything of theirs since that ended.

Or who are too emotionally exhausted by the real world to watch tv that's too angsty.

Do they ever fight crime? I haven't watched a lot of episodes, but none of the ones I've seen showed them doing anything remotely superhero-y.
