I love academia.
Here's a kind of funny article about the kinds of petty revenge tv writers get to take: [link]
Wesley: I stabbed you. I should apologize for that. But I'm honestly not sure how. I think it'll just be awkward. Gunn: Good call. Wesley: Okay.
'Time Bomb'
Natter 66: Get Your Kicks.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
A client just sent me this email:
Thanks Tom !!
Have a great weekend !!
That means I can go home now, right?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I'm working all weekend. Maybe going to see Inception for the fourth time, because one of my neighbors hasn't seen it yet, and I have a sick, sick sickness.
what she said, including the sick, sick sickness.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The article doesn't mention writers killing people out of love. It's like Tim doesn't exist. Or is, you know, weird.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Tim is weird. He's just our kind of weird.

Oh hey, ita -- I was just forwarded an email from someone who doesn't capitalize her first name. So I thought of you.

Always Anti-fascist!
I have two stories like that about David Simon. Captain Marimow in the Wire was named after Simon's worst boss, and, as such, is an incompetent, penny-pinching weasel with stupid hair. The Luther Mahoney shooting on H:LOTS came about after the network said "Simon, you can't have your drug dealer get away with it. If you won't arrest him, he has to die." So Simon wrote the most ethically compromised officer-involved shooting he could think of.People still debate it. He was that determined to thwart "closure"

She's younger than me, right? So I started it first?
God, I can't believe how long I've been doing this.
Someone here mispronounced the like-my-name chick's name so badly it didn't sound like my name anymore. I can't lie, it felt good. I have no perspective.
I don't think I get to take lunch today. I want a lie down, dammit.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
