Okay, so I live-blogged the Vancouver Olympics Opening Ceremonies, only I haven't cleaned up the post and published due to both the subsequent Olympics coverage eating my life (despite said coverage by NBC sucking unwashed ass) and engaging in my official pastime of procrastinating via World of Warcraft.

Eric says it's nice work that they're essentially saying that half of the country's votes don't count. (Actually he is rousing himself to make an actual post about this. He must be PISSED.)

Me? All I have to say is, thank fuck that's all over.

David Tennant Quits Who After Specials

Ladies and gentlemen, the internet will now explode.

(Moar thoughts after I process this.)

Just posting this before I head off to bed, because I happen to be feeding this particular troll:

Over on ohnotheydidnt, reactions are taking place to the breaking news concerning the murder of Jennifer Hudson's mother and brother, et al. (For which, I have no words. I'm no particular fan of Jennifer's but I feel absolutely horrible for her.) Enter la_bellaviidaxo with the ( Read more... )
