I must have missed that special because I never knew Leela had one too!

Yeah, that is definitely what it looks like - that he’s broadcasting to all of NASA at the very least.

It’s shitty PR, man. How much future funding does your space program get if you get messages from the plucky astronaut who survives and you go “Nah, he can snuff it.” Plus the rest of your astronauts get home and find out you did that and they’re not gonna be thrilled to go back into space for you.

Yeah, I liked that about the book. Everyone wants to get Watney back, and while there’s competing ideas about how best to do that, there’s no cartoonish villain who just refuses on the basis of “profits” or unobtanium or something.

Maybe it’s one of those not-complete test screenings. I remember seeing an animated dinosaur movie as a test audience member and several scenes were still just concept art sketches.

1) There’s a bunch of logistical reasons why the crew isn’t supposed to go rescue him, but part of it in the book is that they’re not told he survived for half of it. They don’t want to psychologically unbalance the crew or something.

It is a pretty good book. I think I’m gonna read it again before the movie hits.

The credits for at least two of the original Doctors list him as “Doctor Who” and not “The Doctor”. And I think even Eccleston’s first few episodes did as well.

OHH that explains it! I had no idea how she had K-9 in School Reunion, because I clearly remembered K-9 being Romana’s thing, after Sarah Jane left.

My senior picture was the only good photo I took in 12 years of school. Even my kindergarten pictures aren’t very cute. The photographer turned out to be BFFs with my drama teacher, so she made sure my shots were good.

I mean, at some point, if you’re doing it right ... no one should be able to remember the rules.

Just calm down there Walter.

I mostly feel pity toward my ex’s now-wife. She’s gotta live with a dude who cannot keep a job or understand a budget, in a town where you’ve gotta be making 6 figures to comfortably support a family. They’ve got two school-age kids in a tiny one-bedroom apartment. And on top of that, our daughter’s caught him sexting…

My ex invited me to his, probably because he’s rather a sociopath and wanted to show off. I politely claimed a previous commitment for that day and only swung by long enough to drop our daughter off.

Girl, you didn’t just dodge a bullet, you dodged a giant fucking nuclear bomb.

I did it once, and while it was fun enough, the bed is really crowded and someone’s elbow is always in the way.

I always laugh in detective shows where they discover the murderer by some clothing size. “Oh we found size 8 women’s pants and a size 6.5 footprint at the scene!” Yeah, great, any of the women I know are gonna have like 7 different clothing and 2 or 3 different shoe sizes in their closet, so good luck.

Old Navy/GAP is the WORST at this. I wear a 10 in all of their pants ... except the “boyfriend” jeans, which I have in a 4 and a 6. And they’re both slightly loose. And my waist is probably the largest part of my lower torso because I have almost no hips so anything should be tight there and loose everywhere else?!?

I feel you, fellow Chewbacca-sister.

My best friend in elementary school told me “ew, you don’t shave above the knee”. She was tan with pale blonde hair. I am pasty white with copious dark hair. She could get away with that, I got made fun of.
