Nice turn of phrases
Phrases that have caught my eye in the last 24 hours:
Describing an automatic carwash as a "Get Eaten by Cthulhu" attraction.
it’s funny because it’s offensive. Much like Chris Rock, or Michael Jackson’s face.
makyo was reminded of
a remark I saw on usenet a few years back. Someone had said something gormless and/or wrong, and had been called on it. They'd replied, defensively, "Well I'm entitled to my opinion" to which another poster had replied "No you're not - you're entitled to your *informed* opinion".
iBon sent me the following:
Moff facts that may (or may not) prove interesting down the line:
- Sally Sparrow has gained substantial backing on the forums as potential companion material, ever since the broadcast last year of Blink (writer S. Moffat).
- Speaking of potentially recurring female characters, RTD originally intended to leave Jenny permanently killed off a couple of weeks ago until being asked not to do so (by S. Moffat).
- During promotion for the recent BBC dramatisation of Jekyll (writer S. Moffat), lead star James Nesbit was asked about rumours he would take on the role of the 11th Doctor. He didn't want to link himself to "David Tennant's gig", instead changing the subject and saying "he'd love to work with S. Moffat again, who's a fantastic writer".
- In 1999, Joanna Lumley played a *female* incarnation of the Doctor - which only a heretic could suggest might be possible for a Time Lord - in Comic Relief's The Curse of Fatal Death (writer S. Moffat).
Anyway, that's enough Moff facts. None of them will probably lead to anything anyway. And none are as entertaining as the Vin Diesel Facts either.
If RTD is to go, it's as good an appointment as they could possibly have made.
Moffat, that is, not Vin Diesel.
