I watched Star Trek for the first time in ages and I now have an astonishing urge to make a LOLBorg picture that says

"I made you a cookie, but I assimileated it."

in true LOLcat style.

Meh.  Maybe later.

Locutus out.

From "Ways to tell you're Catholic":

"When you're watching Star Wars and anyone says 'May the Force be with you', you get a strong urge to say 'And also with you'".

So true, EVERY DARN TIME I think someone's going to say that!

"You've let an 'Amen' slip out after the Pledge of Allegiance"

I've done this.  Heck,once in grade school I blessed myself by ( Read more... )

Today, my sister came to pick me up from work.  And her car wouldn't start in the parking lot.  And so my manager and every employee in the place came out and started looking under the hood and getting out jumper cables and trying to jump the battery off my neighbor's car and it would not start ( Read more... )

Today, I read in the paper that when the Chamber of Secrets movie first came out, Russia was all up-in-arms because they thought Dobby was a cruel likeness of Vladimir Putin.  At first I thought, "Ridiculous!"

But, to be completely fair,

Upon a second re-read of Deathly Hallows-

"People may be forced to conclude that Grindelwald simply conjured a white handkerchief and came quietly"

But WHY would one conclude that when he and Dumbledore were spending so much time shut up together, after all?  Ah, double entendres.

I FINISHED DEATHLY HALLOWS!!

So Friday, I worked until 4, and took at two hour nap, and at night night, I went to Borders, and I picked up the book, and I read it until 7 am, at which point I had three Red Bulls in me but I still really really needed to sleep as I had to work at ten.

So I slept till 930, went to work till six (but I read Harry on my ( Read more... )

Deathly Hallows spoilers are most certainly imminent somehow.  El internetski is crawling with them, a few newspapers have run major ones with no warning whatsoever, and even if I avoid these there's always another way (Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest, anyone?) to be spoiled ( Read more... )

There is a show on right now called "Scott Baio is 45-and Single".  Clearly, humanity has hit a new low, because, really, who the hell cares if Chachi isn't married yet?  Isn't he allowed to remain single?

Oh, xkcd.  You never fail to be hilarious.  I love this webcomic.

If I  had a time-jumping Delorean, I would NOT go to my parents' time, screw the space-time continuum, jump to the distant future and screw the continuum again, try to make everything right in my own time, then go back to the Old West to visit my Scottish ancestors (but I have to admit I would maybe marry Doc Brown somewhere along the way ( Read more... )

I need to stop thinking about Harry Potter, which means the book needs to come out.  And soon.

Also Harry Potter related, I was reading an editorial about it in the Post Gazette and it was all well and good until the columnist called Harry's mother "Lucy".  Way to lose every bit of your credibility, lady.  Good job.

There is this man that works in ( Read more... )
