came for the laughs, stayed for the comments. Oh my.

It's always brave to put yourself honestly in the spotlight in front of other people. :) It's scary and dangerous to stand out, to be different from what's around you. To wear a meat suit in a den of lions.

Oh my. Ohhh, she has a *booty*. She's gorgeous!

I think old-fashioned cars would still run, as long as you never shut them off. Old-fashioned motors, too; as long as they have fuel, they'll still run. They only need the electricity for the first couple cycles, then they're self-sustaining.

I watched it a few years ago in the UK, when it was on one of the channels I could DVR. For some reason it was so awful it was almost good.

You don't want to get shot, don't insult the Prophet Mohamed. It's really just you asking for it. You knew what you were getting into. Right?

Hhhhm, yeah. Although Torchwood didn't seem very "everyday", did they? And I tend to think SHIELD would be more of a normal-human safety net, at least as a secondary purpose.

Dagnabbit. He's so into portraying the military and that's the one thing, out of all the things he does, that he's not really great at.

I started to - it looked awesome. Haven't gotten past the first ep yet though. No time!

Well this is *crap*. What the fuck, over? Did every major golden age sci-fi author just decide to up and die in my 30's?

Creepers. I need a guide to killing creepers.

With the discussion, we were kind of prepped for it to be really awful, so our lowered expectations helped make it not as bad as we feared. :)

It was moderately ok until the end. Pacing was awful, really. Could have been *so* much better. But there were good bits, that's what's sad.

Well. Husband is wickedly excited to see this tomorrow. And we're dragging friends along. I'm really grateful for this review....

It also helps that we want to believe that effort is rewarded; ie, the more effort we put into something, the more likely we are to believe it will work.

I tend to think he had a fantasy, and thought about it too much and thought about reality too little. And then, like so many people, he tried to bring his fantasy into the real world and it didn't go anything like he'd planned. Which is why he gave up, at the end, and just stood there. And now reality has sunk in, and…

Thank you *very* much. That's quite a useful website.

I think he just wasn't being careful enough. Not deliberate, just carelessness brought on by his circumstances.

No joke! I'm suitable impressed. And a little overwhelmed... there's no way I'll get to see even half these. There are a few I'd heard of and quite a few I hadn't.

Cassis is the same flavor as ribena which is blackcurrant, which I remember well ebcause most Americans who bump into Ribena overseas are freaked out ebcause the only purple juice they've ever tasted is grape and the two flavors are *not* similar.
