Apparently Bender in Futurama is based on Bender in The Breakfast Club. So now I'm back on The Breakfast Club team. I never left, nor will I ever leave, the Futurama team.

Ahh, to be young again. And also a robot.

Wow. I have really terrible taste in movies. Just watched The Breakfast Club, which I think I thought was brilliant when I saw it in, like, 1985. Wow, it's really not. It's kind of ridiculous despite its excellent use of Simple Minds. Here's what I remember about its awesomeness, ordered randomly ( Read more... )

Apparently I have raised a delinquent because the vampire cat has been sentenced to a three-day jail term by his crazy cat lady vet (seriously, the woman owns 15 cats. She's sort of my idol now.). The vampire cat has been "thinking outside the box" recently, and by thinking I mean peeing, while staying at my Mum's (I refuse to call her his ( Read more... )

I just had a long, chatty conversation with punchpuppy because he has some kind of fab long distance plan. And last week, with kelly_jones. And the week before that, with shara_fares. All this computer technology is awesome and makes everyone feel less than a million miles away, but hearing your voices makes you seem like you're right around the corner. If you were, I'd take ( Read more... )

Hey! Check out my new boy-crush. Do you see what I learned to do there? Awesome. I also learned how to do that.

Now if only I could learn to write something that wasn't garbage ...

Hate myself. Hate my work. Just spent about twenty minutes watching Apple ads on-line because I hate myself and my work ( Read more... )
