I once saw someone do an interpretive dance at a wedding anniversary.
If anyone ever wonders how I developed the ability to not laugh over things you really, really wanna laugh at- the words 'purple leotard' and 'personal space' should come to mind.

I saw STID with a coworker of mine. She's not a Trek fan, but she enjoyed it enough to go see it again with another coworker of ours. I seriously felt defective when the people in the theatre were laughing at parts I was groaning at, saw when I wanted to laugh, etc.

You at least enjoyed it. I went from somewhat okay to openly pissed at the end. I feel like I'm out of step with all my ST peeps for not enjoying STID.

I wouldn't be adverse to checking this out if it wasn't for the part about it being annoying. I find regular life and most things, myself included, highly annoying. I tend to never want that in optional forms.

True story bro alert: after I graduated high school, I was still on an advisory council for a work study program there. I started out a student rep and ended up being the secretary before the program was discontinued. Because of that, I had to occasionally visit my old school, something I did solely because of the…

I've read some of the biggies because everyone was, and I like being aligned with pop culture occasionally. But as a steady thing, and nothing but YA? No thanks. I didn't do that when I was the target audience.

Divine Secrets still gives me rage shakes, lo these many years later. If that was the author's goal, congrats, she succeeded beyond her wildest dreams!

OOOH-WEEE-OOOO!
*does little hand wave*

Hey, all I can do is try to put it out there. It's up to the dudes to chase me!

I've gone to Star Trek cons, I've gone to Star Trek fan-film cons (jealous?) and even a con that was geared to fans of buddy-cop shows (Starsky and Hutch, The Professionals, The Sentinel) and the thing that I enjoy about all of them is getting to talk about what I loved so much about the shows. Television has always…

My name came from a famous children's book (as far as I could tell, it was made up just for the book). So I was both annoyed that I didn't act anything like my fictional counterparts, and in the case of "Blubber", pissed that she was profaning my great name.

But do you care how?

"I am sixteen going on seventeen, Maria, and so are you! My daddy likes jailbait, so it would seem, at least for a time or two!"

Because the kid that wins has to have time to grow up and learn about the business before they can take over. If Charlie wins, and the next day Wonka says "peace out", the factory would fail within days. That part always made sense to me, but I've always been an overthinker.

I say it just like they do in the movie, complete with faux-English accent.

Not only to sell chocolate, but a specific candy car, that failed miserably because of packaging issues. That's hilarious to me.

I have the fancy anniversary edition of Willy Wonka with the kids' commentary, and even they kinda groan/sigh when this song comes up. If the actors in the movie can't take it, that's a sign.

Have fun, Smacky!

Agreed!

They might not, but seeing him looking like his daddy-
