Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I should have called it Sterling Syndrome because I was really thinking of that character specifically.

That is what it is. You are never supposed to root for him, it seems, when he's doing the right thing. When he's a bad person (halloo Crowley!) it seems easier.

he was either abstaining or it was left ambiguous, IIRC.

Out of the love of a lady...blech. Not that I didn't watch it all. I just don't remember it all.

Drinking an orange mango smoothie from Starbucks. It tastes like neither orange nor mango.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Random bit o' celebrity news:

Ke$ha: I've 'Given Up' On Trying To Get Glitter Off Of Me (VIDEO)

Ke$ha--she of the blue lipstick--talked to our friends at MTV Style about her beauty regimen, explaining that she always wears glitter. Really, always. Because she can't get it off of her: "I've just given up. I've accepted that it will just be there. It's in all my suitcases, it's usually in my food, in my drinks. Sometimes when I pee, it's in the toilet. I don't know how it got there."

eta:

She also notes that in her fantasy world, "I would wear just headdresses and body paint and run around with a glitter diaper."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Sometimes when I pee, it's in the toilet. I don't know how it got there.

Jennifer Love Hewitt knows.

Great. The Jamaican will have his match aired. Because he's playing Andy Murray. Well, it was nice while it lasted.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I just saw something on Gawker I can't unsee and now I'm a wreck.

I hate hate hate some people.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

So the hostages are free and the hostage-taker is in custody, though they don't know if there are more explosives in the building.

(Which you wouldn't necessarily know if you had been watching MSNBC, which cut to three commercials as this, the only new information released in about 3-4 hours, was being announced by the chief. Nice work, news!)

DJ, I think I know what you saw. Humans, indeed.

I have "Age ain't nothing but a number" stuck in my head now. It's the song I think of as the dirty-old-man song, and it's making me feel defensive. Which, silly. I'm a good girl. Woman. Whatever.

Huh. MSNBC is saying the police killed the hostage-taker.

The humans? The planet does not need humans.

Well, I hope that eases the conscience of whoever had to pull the trigger.
