I have discovered that I can't abide the sound of someone eating yogurt or pudding out of those little cups. The sound of the spoon against the plastic container drives me to distraction, especially when they get to the end and they are scraping down the sides of the cup with short rapid movements. Am I the only one who feels this way?

It says here I might have to escalate through a management chain before I can kill it with fire...
Might I be able to assist you?

Are any of you FAWTLies fans of Dr. Who? I never watched the original series, or the reboot, until I happened to catch the first couple of episodes of the reboot on my local PBS station a couple of weeks ago. Then I discovered the series is available via Netflix streaming, and I seem to have gotten myself hooked. I've watched about half of the first season, and I have some observations:

I am! I am! I tried to watch some of the older stuff, but YouTube has very limited video availability of the original series, and what they do have BBC is quickly going through and having pulled down, sadly.
3. That's one of the big complaints of the reboot - apparently the older series was all over the place as far as locales go, but the new one has done very little off-world traveling, electing just to hop timelines on good ol' Earth.
I've been hoping they'll get around to more worldhopping in the next season, but I'm not getting my expectations up. Nonetheless Moffat is a great writer (if a bit sadistic, as you'll see - he took over the reins from Davies after Tennant's run ended and Smith's began) and the story entertaining nonetheless, it's more missed potential than actual badness.

So far, I've only seen Christopher Eccleston as the Doctor, and I like him very much, but all the fans of the show that I know seem to think David Tennant is better. (Except for those who think Tom Baker is the One True Doctor.) I'm looking forward to judging for myself. :) And I expect that once I get caught up with the current series, at least one of my friends is going to make me watch her DVDs of the original series.

I prefer Smith myself, with Eccleston as a close second. Tennant's my least favorite of the new batch. They're all very good, but some are more "Doctor"ish than the others. Tennant was too angsty and, for lack of a better term, too human for me to appreciate him in the role the way I do Smith and Eccleston. He lacks the essential weirdness. ;P
I'm unfortunately not familiar enough with the rest to make a judgement, even Baker.

I like Dr. Who. I got started with Tom Baker and watched it for a bit. Then the new series came out and I have been really enjoying it.

Being pretty ADHD myself I was very prone to pausing mid-episode at a commercial break and going to do something else for a while if my interest started flagging. Most of the episodes were fairly gripping though so it wasn't an issue, but a few of them were slow or just not as interesting as the rest.
If that's an option - watching online, or via NetFlix - I'd recommend it be available. =)

1. Daleks are really very silly looking.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
2. John Barrowman is one of the prettiest men I've ever seen.
Allons-y!
3. They seem to spend an awful lot of time on earth, when (in theory) they have all of time and space to explore.
People assume that time is a strict progression of cause-of-effect...but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly...timey-wimey...stuff.

my wife is a casual fan of the show. I think I like the 10th of doctor or so, the one who looked like he could punch someone without crying immediately afterwards. I don't like the angsty twip - I just want to take his lunch money before he's blown away in a breeze.

Leather jacket, buzz cut hair? That'd be Eccleston, the 9th.
I don't like the angsty twip - I just want to take his lunch money before he's blown away in a breeze.
That would be Tennant, the 10th, for certain.
Smith, the 11th, would be the weird/zany one. "Bow ties are cool."

Bow ties is annoying as well, but I wouldn't want to punch him like the other one. I'd gladly leave him on a less than hospitable planet, though.

I don't know enough about the chronology of the show (yet) to know which Doctor is which number. Now that I'm watching it, though, I'm sure I'll pick some of that up by osmosis. :)

Well, we finally completed Kingmaker yesterday. My Fighter11/Cavalier6 got taken down to 10 HP from 191 before the rest of the party won their fight. It was fun. Now we have a short respite before Wolfthulhu takes us through Rappan Athuk. I think I had better create a few backup PC's for that one.
Wouldn't hurt to be prepared. >.<

I'm a huge fan of Tom Baker, but Christopher Eccleston is my second favorite Doctor. Tennant was awesome as well, but I'm pretty anxious for Matt Smith's era to come to an end.

Also While #9 tends to stay fairly close to Earth, #10 and #11 do in fact get off planet an awful lot. Even coming into contact with Non-human races from time to time. Yet as with most stories in the long running series the Dr. stays near humanity through it's history. #8 did have a bit of an explanation. However it is oft repeated during #11's stories that the Dr. Lies... a lot.
