I want reindeer eyes. Although I think I would then get very confused at any goth club or rave.

But even food advertising has target audiences, specific demographics they aim at - families, hipsters, etc.

I'm not really anyone's market segment, though. It's a bit lonely, but also rather freeing to not be the target audience of *anything* out there.

Yeah, the marketing on those big "blockbuster" movies is pretty intense. They often seem like an hour-long advertisement. I'd never thought of fandoms manipulated like that - most of the things I associate with fandom are slightly shameful, like conventions full of persons of dubious hygiene, or websites crammed with…

Interesting: I get the cynicism, but why distrustful of a fandom?

It seemed very delicately drawn.

Oh wow. Sold!

I've seen very large ants devour a small lizard alive before, but that is one disturbing photo there folks.

No joke. O_o That was unexpected...

See, I don't see it that way. Amy and Rory have a different sort of relationship - Amy is definitely the one in charge, Rory is definitely not as aggressive a person. I bet, when they were dating, she chased him. She's always worried about him.

Yeah, you're right about the Nestene Consciousness - but maybe the Flesh evolve into them? I dunno. I still think we've met these folks somewhere before.

Weirdly enough, as one of the people who found the Pirate episode boring, I found this one rather entertaining. It reminded me of a throwback episode to the Fourth Doctor - Doctor and companions stranded on a dark and dubious island covered in ruins, complete with some form of danger. Lots of running around in the…

The Death Star on twitter proudly presents "how to deal with your impending doom: a handy flowchart".

No Guts No Glory! We're takin' a stand...

I watched - and loved - everything from "COPS" down to "Forever Knight", then we have to skip a bunch until we get to "Brimstone" which was awesome and should not have been canceled.

I loved the originals. Might read this, might not; but it's nice to know Scalzi is a fan too.

That photo, with them standing there in the sparkles... reminds me really strongly of a bishie manga panel.

These days all the electronic inventions designed for boy-bits do the exact opposite. We certainly have come a long ways in a hundred years or so... ;)

Gah. Seeing his fat fucking toad-face immediately sends me into a complete rage. If I ever got ahold of him I'd completely throw my hard-won morals and ethics out the window and torture the hell out of him, just on general principles. He's pretty much the one human on the planet I'd cheerfully kill on sight, without…

How about preventing this in the first place with free worldwide birth control? When women are offered the choice of weather to have kids or not, the majority of them tone down the number they have right away. This drops the future population pretty drastically, preventing the crisis in the first place by reducing the…
