The point is the sharp bit at the end.

Pfft. Not one of those people has ever played Doctor Who.

Livejournal, actually.

You'd have to expand beyond Mountain Dew, but now that you mention it, that might work. He who controls the caffeine controls the universe, as they say.

Do check it out. There's a lot of material in the original radio version that didn't make it into the books. The BBC also adapted the later books in the series for radio in the year or so leading up to the release of the Disney movie. The later stuff assembles everybody from the original cast who's still alive…

The ballpoint planet theory is detailed in chapter 21 of HHG (thank you, Google). It's in the radio version, too, which you should listen to if you have the chance. Listen to the whole thing, including the new episodes from 200 and 2005. Your ears will love you forever.

This short was first available online a couple of months ago, and I'd been following it for some months prior. I was underwhelmed when it finally showed up, but I was surprised to see just how polarized other people's reactions were. Either they adore it, or they're borderline hostile. I dunno, though... I don't…

You must've seen Mr. Nanni's other Lovecraftian shorts, yes? The Casting Call of Cthulhu, The Necronomicon, and (especially) Elder Sign are all pretty great. Not uh, not the same feel as this one, though.

Somehow "Drinks! That was it! See what you miss if you don't stay alert?" made it into the everyday speech of all my friends in high school. I was the first Douglas Adams fan among them, and I never felt the need to parrot this particular unmemorable non-joke.

Really? THIS is the disturbing musical number? What, were you taking a bathroom break during Chris Cooper's rap?

"Keep your head in it."

Oh, I didn't say anything about Kahn's ability to make sense, I just have a hard time imagining a Neuromancer movie worse than the one that was trying to get off the ground in the '80s. I've never actually heard of Kahn before, so I pulled up his resume, and it contains nothing I'm interested in. For what little…

I don't like Molly's eyes either, but I could handle Neuromancer as a traditional action flick provided they did justice to the story. There's a Neuromancer screenplay from the '80s penned by Chuck Russel that's been floating around the 'net for years which is simply awful. It strips away all the good stuff in order…

It depends on the your job, I suppose, but I absolutely couldn't do it. I got back from a week of vacation on Monday, so although I've dealt with all the email in my inbox (well, almost all), I haven't actually deleted any of it. That makes this an ideal time to analyze what I've received. 77% are external…

Infamous, maybe.

Clearly every user's answer is going to be different, but this isn't my experience at all. I switched to Ubuntu after Windows 7 SP1 killed all of my machines. Everything has been very smooth sailing after the initial self-eduction period, which lasted about a week. Prior to that I'd had exactly zero Linux…

Mine — even in business correspondence — has always been "Okay then."

Ha! I've been waiting for this since I read the book earlier this year (Tarantula by Thierry Jonquet, since you asked). There's a Kindle edition now, but when I bought it, the only available English translation was the British paperback. Nobody was selling it affordably in the U.S., so I bought a used British copy,…
