No, we're murderous and deadly and weirdly hung up on gender and sexual purity.

Just don't touch the horn. Those things are MAGIC!

Uh, okay.... why do you think I am Gawker?

It started out that way but became just self-indulgently crying-in-the-rain by the end.

If this person had replied to *anyone* after dropping this comment (and my comment came after dozens of others had engaged with Ms. Amazon278), I might give a fuck, but more likely I would simply have not commented myself.

The person had *one* comment. This one. That's all I meant. They showed up and said this and started a big fire and frequently those folks never even comment again.

Until *I* allowed what now?

Yeah, Burner Account Person. You're a feminist. And I'm a unicorn.

Tempers are not constant things, and he does seem to have mellowed with age and parenthood. I love his Twitter.

I'm sorry, you didn't see The Avengers — one of last year's best *character-driven* and best-reviewed films — because of Iron Man 2 — arguably the worst of all the pre-Avengers films* that everyone involved admits was sub-par? And was written and directed by completely different humans?

I hope they never stop loving BSG. Fandom can be so transitory, I'd only do something like this with a show I'd been a fan of for years (like Doctor Who which contains a spirit of adventurous romance throughout its history and is generally a happy show, David Tennant run excepted).

It didn't. They completely retooled the second season and killed it dead. The first season was great and quirky and had a terrific office/home balance, so of course they changed EVERYTHING.

This is pretty much my favorite fake trailer of all time. OF ALL TIME!

"Do you really want the person who's in a war zone against their will to be covering you"

We *are* in another Vietnam (at least insofar as the word quagmire totally applies), and there is no active draft.

If we ever end up in a situation where they are seriously reinstituting the draft as a thing that happens to people (rather than as a card 18-year-old guys fill out and never think about again), then hell yes, women should be drafted, too, because we will obviously be needing all hands on deck to deal with whatever…

No, Kristen Chenoweth.

I used to play "got your nose" with my dear departed cat who was pretty much all fur and *really* tiny, and when I lost (she tagged me before I touched her nose and got my hand out of the way) it hurt like whoa. And she really was just playing. If she'd been trying to stun or kill prey... OW!
