I. It's still really warm and mild out, but for some reason my landlord is still blasting the heat on in the apartment with the result that I'm spending a lot of time panting in front of open windows. UGH. I hate when it gets warm and stuffy inside. D: Could be worse, though. It could be that January and February I spent in the Apartment of Doom ( Read more... )

I. I TOLD YOU YOUR COUNTRY WAS TOO HOT.

II. LOLTORCHWOOD. I'm torn between whether an American version would be TEN TIMES MORE HILARIOUS or not.

III. WHY YES, THE DOCTOR AND ROSE ARE CUTE. I AGREE. (It... seemed like a reasonable thing to put for #3.)

I. EVEN THE SNOW IS MELTING. WHAT IS THIS NONSENSE. The coldest it's supposed to get this week is like -10 and we're having highs of 1 and 2 later on this weekend. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

II. I'm thinking "ten times more hilarious" is probably bang on.

III. THEY ARE. This is a reasonable thing for number 3, well done.

I. I AM STARTING TO THINK YOU HAVE DECEIVED ME ABOUT THE NATURE OF THE CLIMATE IN YOUR COUNTRY. I AM GOING TO HAVE TO MOVE TO SASKA... SAKS... THE NORTH POLE.

II. The possibility that JB might be involved makes this very promising. Especially if they ask him to emote.

III. I always sort of assume this item is on your lists when you do them.

One of the comments on the website was like NO ONE COULD REPLACE JOHN BARROWMAN!!! and my response was basically "yes his acting talents are unmatched".

I am definitely not on lj at work, what are you talking about.

AMERICAN TORCHWOOD. OMFG. I have decided I want this. I mean, it's not like it can actually be worse, but it might be just as hilarious.

Also, on the subject of domestic spats, Tania's ex-roommate's ....new... roommate (that is, the Tania-replacement) called the police on a domestic dispute she could see going on in the building across from her. The lady of the couple had a baseball bat, apparently.

And then the next day or two days later or something they called hre down to the police station because when they got into the apartment they found them both dead. ...Yep.

WTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. That is crazy. Was that here in Ottawa?!

I'm pretty sure the people next door to us in the Apartment of D00m had a child... that... disappeared one day. It was terrifying.

Yep! I think Tania said they live on Bronson, which is over in the Carleton... area of ... things.

I heard something on the news last night about people found dead in their home I think? But I'm not sure if it was the same instance. I only caught the tail end of it.

Ahaha, don't you love January thaws?

I just came across that Torchwood thing *pets tvbythenumbers* (It's the place where I get *real* news). DNWDNWDNW. LALALALALALA. Okay, now that I got that out of my system (God I must be tired, I nearly wrote "sistem" Yes, Google Chrome, I know "sistem" is wrong, no need to yell- aside, can you believe I made the switch? I usually take forever to make a switch like that) I've got to say I dread the idea of an Americanized version of Torchwood. Where will all the porn go??? :( For God's sake, won't someone please think of the children!

You should go auction off a fic! I'd totally bid on it. :D

D: I know it's going to get cold again. And everything is so gross! Are things as brown and weird smelling in Montreal as they are here?

XD But it's going to be headed by RTD! I have total faith in... his ability to crush my heart.

D'you think? I've been contemplating it! I mean on the one hand I don't really approve of all the pressure it's been putting on people to donate, but on the other hand I like that people can choose their own charities. I'll take this under consideration! XD

XD But it's going to be headed by RTD! I have total faith in... his ability to crush my heart. But it's FOX! As in "we ordered the back nine! We just won't let people know when the back nine will air so we can cancel it quietly!" As in Peter Griffin listed cancelled shows for how long as a joke at Fox's expense for cancelling and then bring back Family Guy?

XD I see your point, my friend.

Yeah. It even sounds like a very strange rumour. Though I could see Torchwood working a lot better in the U.S. than DW.

If you're up for it, and yeah, people probably do feel pressured, but I think people will feel pressured anywhere. I went into a Couche-Tard yesterday and the cashier asked if I could donate a dollar to the relief effort. I couldn't say no, even though I'm now in an a bit of a bidding war. lol

Hmm, yeah. That would be a very awkward situation. I don't like donating place unless I know what I'm donating toBidding closes tomorrow, though, so I have to make up my mind really quickly. * ( ... )

But...but in that same article it says they might try to reboot Doctor Who for American audiences, too. That's just plain wrong. Torchwood, yes. I can really see that. But if the Doctor ever has an American accent I may just plain cry. Unless they can get David Tennant and Billie Piper to star in it and pay them huge amounts of money and make them live in my country. Or Christopher Eccleston.

LOL I think I saw the American version of Doctor Who thing and was so horrified that my brain refused to contemplate it further. XD

I WOULD RATHER WATCH TEN DIE ON REPEAT THAN LET DW US HAPPEN.

NO, I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS IS EXTREME.

I don't mind the American Torchwood thing, 'cause, you know, it's Torchwood, lol, and Rusty's there... But if they make a US DW my brain might explode from the horror.

goldy_dollar January 19 2010, 18:23:30 UTC
YES. I avoided thinking about the DW thing because it was too horrifying.
