I enjoy this so much considering... :-/

I still go with paper ballots. I'm 27 and am surrounded by technology (smart phone, e-reader tablet, laptop, smart tablet I use for work). I recognize that if people want to tamper with voting, they could do so via paper ballot sabotage and electronic sabotage evenly. But as many pieces of technology that I've gone…

I am now going to call him Bird Peet. Thank you for this.

I went on a rant elsewhere in the comment system on the same exact issue. We've seen this movie done over and over and it's boring and predictable at best. This time, it's just with zombies thrown in the mix. And it's the white heterosexual man who is THE ONLY ONE who can save the world. Brad Pitt is Jesus Christ…

I probably shouldn't base my opinion on what an E.T. voiceover person-lady has to say. But once I heard the, "And there's only one man who can save blahdeeblah" I checked out. There are many tropes I can't stand in movies, and one of them is the "Only one person can save the world" trope. Unless you're someone with an…

Aww, I love this! That should be on his tombstone:

I'll join you on this train of disappointment. What a waste of a great opportunity!!

That's what my coworker was guessing, too. When Merle's spoken about the group this season, it's been with a focus on Rick. Which I think is a cop-out devised by the writers once they realized they were going to off T-Dog. Because sure, you can get mad at Rick who was this guy that came out of nowhere into the group…

It's like she forgot all of the reasons why she and the rest of her former group didn't like nor trust Merle, let alone the creepy vibes he gave off when she and Michonne had just arrived at Woodbury. I could see where she'd be sympathetic towards him in their shared "we have/had siblings we care about and can't just…

I not only appreciate your open mindedness, but also your use of memes.

It's now 3:45pm my time and I'm only just now settling with this reality in a way without getting sad. This morning, though, I woke up and just wanted to yell, "Damnit, it wasn't a dream!" and got upset all over again.

...Will they then have intense sex? Because I'm not gonna lie, it's kind of a hot fantasy of weirdly merged stereotypes: Redneck ninja meets Urban samurai, rolling around beneath the cell block sheets.

When the crew was still in the campgrounds outside of Atlanta, there was that family (mom, dad, and two kids?) who seemed to be people of color. But I don't remember their names, nor do we know what happened to them since they headed off on their own. There were also the Spanish-speaking guys who had taken control of…

We've still got Carol running amok. Which I think is worse because we don't know if she's alive or dead. Yet.

My coworker and I are joking that Oscar is now unofficiallly the sorta-Tyrese from the graphic novels. So we have dubbed him Not-Tyrese.

What is she doing?!? Trying to befriend Da Guvnah to be in a comfortable state to stay in town? Trying to get into his pants? I don't understand her endgame. And the awkward scenes between her flirting with Dah Guvnah and Merle flirting with her made me remember that she and Shane got it on in season 2. I'm on the…

Did you cry during tonight's episode? I cried tonight. I got really mad and cursed loudly at the TV initially because I wasn't expecting what happened; and then I cursed more softly when I came to admit that things were going to go a certain way and there was nothing that could be done; and then I got weepy when…

I'm starting late and am already having the anxiety of not knowing what to actually write about. I'm okay with short stories, but not used to longer pieces that aren't academic/non-fiction writing. Aaaaaugh. Gotta start gotta start gotta start something...

I saw the image and went "I was waiting for someone to drop this in somewhere as a reference." Man, I hate that I like this show/manga (you can tell I like it b/c I go out of my way to ignore the volume of fan service. So. Much.)

Sometimes, less really is more. That's been a component of the success behind the Paranormal Activity franchise—-you don't visibly see the villain head-on, only shadows or scars in its wake, let alone it dragging people out of its beds. Because you can't see more than its effects, you can startled so much more easily…
