Lurching from one disaster to the next.
They would, I suspect, easily win any fight of that sort with the simple, "So does Peter Jackson."

Oh, aren't they just? Any NZ-er saying anything longer than a three word sentence sets me giggling for hours. They're just so cute! And I'm mightily impressed by how they handle the inevitable confusion about whether they're saying 'sex' or 'six'.
(Hey, they started it. There's was taunting! Granted some of the taunting was about the mythical sport thing I hear tell of sometimes, but it still counts. I have my complete lack of national pride to protect here.)

It's a remora, dimwit.
It is fun to hear them bad-mouthing each other, or to hear someone doing his impressions of the various accents of Australia and New Zealand, even though they all sound exactly like the Darwin one he started with. It's like listening to orchestra members bitching about how violin and viola are completely different instruments.

Clarification on white fonting... I posted a bunch of stuff about Inside Out in white font because not all of Australia has seen it yet, but I deleted it because I wasn't sure if that's considered spoiler taunting or something. Can I post in white font or should I wait until it has aired in all Aussie states?

Emlah, as far as I'm concerned there's no problem with you posting it here in whitefont. We're all used to being taunted!

Oh. My. God. I completely forget Angel was on tonight. I never forget. I've done it exactly once before out of all 83 episodes. Fuckity god-damn exam stress.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Very different. Very! Plus, it's viola, not voila, dammit!
Er, sorry.
