You know what I'd hate if I was in this movie? Stairs. Because you'd die before your foot even hit the second step.

Was Trekkies good? I remember hearing about it but then forgetting to look into it because it hadn't come out yet, and then completely forgetting all about it until I read your post.

But even 28 Days Later felt realistic b/c while those zombies ran, they ran like normal people running...only undead. Same with the Dawn of the Dead remake. Fast but still looked like actual people running b/c they were people running. These zombies move way too fast for any mere human to stand a chance. Everyone in…

In the book, they're more of the traditional slow camp of zombie—the shamblers. And as in shambler stories, it's not their speed that's frightening; it's their sheer number and ceaselessness, let alone just how hard it is to kill them since they're already dead (and there's definitely trial and error involved in the…

I've never bought an audio book before (I love reading, and I'm afraid I'd get sleepy listening to someone else's voice for a while). But this actually sounds really good—like listening to someone play their tape recorder back from the itnerviews rather than reading transcriptions like the book.

Your last sentence has struck a cord with me and I applaud you for saying something I couldn't quite put my finger on.

It's so ridiculously boring. I really don't remember what happens b/c I was already forcing myself to read the books just to figure out why everyone was talking about them (and I came to legitimately say "I've read them. Hate them.") I think I threw my book at the wall when I finished and then wiped it from my memory…

It reminds me of X-Men 3 where there was this build up to an epic mutants against mutants battle, and what we really got was a bunch of extras/stunt people wearing brown hoodies fighting 5-6 X-men teens/Beast and it was so anticlimatic.

I work at a nonprofit arts venue and have the cool job quirk of having to walk past rehearsal rooms in my building to get to my office, which means I get to walk by all sorts of rehearsals going on if the doors are open (orchestras, opera singers, musical singers). Nine times out of ten, I always slow my roll when I…

My family's from Alabama, and my parents tend to go down there a couple of times a year to visit relatives and whatnot. But we're outside of DC now.

Any suggestions for plus-size clothing that's good for older women? My mom is over 60, maybe 5'5, wears a size 22 and has a really hard time finding clothes she can wear not only because of her size, but also because of the quality and style of the clothing. She usually looks for clothes in major department stores,…

Virginia, I'm so proud of you. You pulled it off a second year in a row. EPIC SAX TIME!!

As you should. I will have a bag of ice ready, should you need it.

It's heavy. Like punch you directly in the nipple heavy.

DANCE PARTY TIME!!!!!!!

Have you not seen this past Sunday's episode? It's gonna hit you HARD in the gut, so you may want to ride the non high-tension feeling you've got now and save it??

YES. ALL OF THE YESES.

They're still counting VA, but my county is for Obama and I'm crying and I'm so proud and happy and THANK. THE FUCKING. GODS.

Oh no! I'm glad it worked out!!

I'm in VA and I'm freaking out. My county is leaning toward Obama. COME ON LOUDOUN, DON'T FAIL ME NOW!!!!
