Don't feel cheated, this rumor is certainly bullshit.

Since I'm a San Francisco resident, there's often some minor geographical inaccuracy for me to complain about. But since I'm a graphic designer, this week there was a typographical inaccuracy to get my panties in a bunch:

Yes, something that I have been hypothesizing is that the 63's are being made to go in their crime sprees. Because look at it this way: You're a hardened criminal, condemned to Alcatraz for the rest of your life. Then something weird happens, and you're not sure what it was, but suddenly you're free, and it's 50 years…

A scanner can't scan inside itself. He made that up to make the project sound cooler. Over at the Boing Boing link there are commenters who actually recognize the electronics, and it's apparently just random pieces. So apparently he built an ant farm in a box of random electronics and photographed, not scanned, it.…

So wait, all my atoms came from stars exploding after the Big Bang? Great, not only did I already feel like I've wasted my life, now I have to feel bad for the atoms that have been around for 13 billion years only to get stuck making up my lame ass.

This is when it gets annoying that you have to be signed in to watch Hulu Plus on the PS3, which doesn't seem like it should be necessary at all. Well thank goodness I have redundant backups— i.e., a computer hooked up to the TV as well.

Except that no skaters these days have such a tiny skateboard. Look at that thing! It's miniature!

Season 1 of GoT is coming out on iTunes on March 6. Presumably season 2 will come out a month before season 3 airs.

I saw the movie long ago but I've never seen that trailer. Now I want WHAT IS THE SECRET OF SOYLENT GREEN as my ringtone.

From a story standpoint it adds drama. Here's a squadmate whose life is often in your hands, and vice versa. And now they're interested in you in a way that you don't reciprocate. How do you let them down easy without losing their loyalty (which will get them killed)? Or do you just tell them to eff off, so they leave…

Four part response:

There was something about this episode that bothered me, and I just realized what it was. It's that the weird science factor was so lacking. The whole humans-with-a-hive-mind concept was woefully underexploited. The threat in this episode would have been identical if it was just three regular dudes going around…

Actually he said it when Olivia visits his home and "remembers" the case of the woman who lost her husband, and what they did after that. This is before Walter has even had a chance to diagnose her, and long before the Semtex bit. And my mistake, his actual words were "That's not possible." Even still, "not possible"…

Same here. I play games so cautiously that when I hear a game takes ten hours I know it will take me 25.

You forgot the best part! You see the light at the end of the tunnel, and you run for it because you felt like you'd never see sunlight again, and you go through the doorway— and a freakin' poison headcrab that was hanging out on ON TOP OF THE DOORWAY jumps on the back of your head and poisons you down to 1 health…

The fact that this show frequently uses two types of Evil Twins is either evidence of a strong thematic core or beating a dead horse. I lean toward the first, but it gets a little silly when an evil doppelgänger shows up every other episode and we have to have the alt-universe-version-or-shapeshifter debate again.

Or Alair Arown.

I say that at about 6:30 every morning, when she wakes me up with a symphony of whining.

Puggle! I have one of those. She's two now, so not a puppy anymore, but still cancer-fightingly cute.

Yeah, I don't have any problem giving them all the leeway they need inventing new places; it's just the use of a word that has such an obvious significance to San Francisco, and then the characters missing that significance.
