Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
but I say BLAH BLAH BLAH FISHCAKES.
Yeah, sounds like a mess, especially the whole "I'm in love with her but we're seeing other people because she's not over her ex" part. I am not judgey about open relationships, but unless you are both committed to it, someone is going to get hurt.
But can I just say BLAH BLAH BLAH FISHCAKES may be my favorite random exclamation since JIGGERY POKERY
I stole it from TWOP back in the day....
But yeah. I think they are being ridiculous. Like, fine, she's not over her ex (it's true) and you like her anyway. Fine. She may break your heart. And you may not be able to define your current relationship. But that's not a valid reason for keeping it SECRET. jeez.
Seattle people, have you heard about the play that'swhatshesaid? [link] It sounds fascinating, but the meta story around it is seriously messed up. [link]
ion, growing up in the 80s doesn't always save us from teen embarrassment on social media. I know this guy. [link]
I hadn't, but wow.
The weird thing about this cease and desist letter is that there are no women characters in Lopez's play, The Whipping Man, so there are no lines from The Whipping Man in That'swhatshesaid. This absence of women characters is acknowledged instead by the sound of 72 pages being flipped.

Sam French don't mess around. I did a SM'd a production of Grease for charity and Samuel French's granddaughter was on the Board of the charity and they wouldn't even consider letting us put in the final song from the movie.
Snow barely sticking at 7:30, so I'm in the office. Figured less snow to clear off my car that way....
That's fascinating, aurelia.
I hadn't really thought about changing things (a little) in plays until very recently. Of course my first job out of college was at a theatre where the artistic director took three or four scripts of the play, and the book (this was theatre for children), literally cutted and pasted them into a script which we copied, and said that meant she wrote the play, and so we didn't have to pay royalties!
So I felt like changing the Polack joke in Grease was not so big of a deal. Or changing the word "rubbers" to "Galoshes" in an Our Town production that was presented to Middle Schoolers by High Schoolers.
Also, I think this might be a Rochester accent thing, but I just hear, over the loudspeaker, to ignore the three warning tones for the Med Center antics. But the were saying Med Center Annex. Both pronounced ann-ix.
eehhann-ix
