Yeah. We tried watching the first episode of "Penny Dreadful" last night on Netflix.
Opening camera shot: Mom lying next to small girl child in the dark, spooky music.
Me: Okay, we're not watching this.
Spouse: Seriously?
Me: Something bad is about to happen to that little girl.
but it's so good....

I've always cried when characters I liked died, it's actually unnerved people who see it, more so if we're playing a video game.

Of course now I have to fold laundry and wash dishes which is very not awesome. Especially not after doing grocery shopping and errands.
And tomorrow I have more errands and other unpleasant tasks I have been avoiding. Because this Monday was so crowded with unpleasant tasks that it spilled over. :/
Adulting sucks. :P

Interesting interview. Which is why I am on certain threads with an open mind. *Sarcastic John Deadpool whispers: Of course he's got an open mind. He's had one ever since he fell off a playground swing when he was eight or nine.* Quiet, you. Well, it's the end of another eleven hour shift. Winding down by reading the posts and sipping Amaretto. *Sarcastic John Deadpool whispers: It's true. Right now, he's using a sippy cup* Am Not! I'm using a shot glass. *Is that a shot glass, or a s**t glass?*
Thus says the figment of someone else's imagination. :)

that said, I'm way too low a level and/or am probably fallen for something I no longer remember and may have never noticed; and there's no one that casts atonement around here...
If there was any Atonement going on, 1/2 the Forums across the internet would vanish quicker than you can say Kaiser Söze.

We don't use sippy cups, because we believe they set kids back from using regular cups, but my brothers do. So it's hilarious when we go to visit and they try to hand Tiny T-Rex a sippy cup, and he looks at it weird before taking the lid off.

I fell from swing when I was... Seven? And then again a year later breaking my nose...
Would that explain my open (to a degree) mind?

Oh! Finished set one walking (aka "shopsalot").
Also: being a quasi-multilinguist - that is, being able to say a smattering of words in a number of languages - is so much worse better than being an actual bilingual person, because this way I get to sound stupid to everyone instead of just those who speak my couple of languages!
(I mean, I'm polite, but clearly pretty stupid...)

No, not really. That was my sarcastic side getting loose. I must remember to tighten his straight jacket.

I think 49 is our high for today (and the rest of the week).
Snow returns tomorrow, with a 2-6 inches forecast for Thursday or Friday.
If I had 1gp for each time I'd heard that sentence...

One of our dog's (many) hangups is he won't eat a milkbone without first burying it (if only momentarily).
My dad's dog doesn't have that hangup, so she cheerfully follows him until he buries his milkbone and eats it.
Well eventually he got wise to it, but being a dog hasn't figured out a remedy (besides eating it right away, that is) so he's wandering around the house with his milkbone, crying.

I just got an idea. Break it up and mix it with his dry food.

I've heard him read Six to Eight Black Men many times, and it still makes me laugh out loud.
I am ashamed to say that I have not read it yet, along with too many other books on my list. :(

Man: that weird moment where, due to the way and time the threads updated, the Messageboards stream on the right, and the actual Messageboards page in the center have a different number of "new" posts in the same thread.
It's pretty weird.
(For the curious, "I want to do that much damage!" had 3 new posts - the last by Torbyne - when the right stream loaded, but, by the time the main page finished loading, Glorf Fei-Hung had added a post, making it 4 new posts - specifically "11 seconds ago" (meaning, of course, it took more than 11 seconds after the stream had updated compared to the page). I'm looking at it right now, and it's pretty weird. Neat!)

It's good to know that two girls at least escaped that culty lifestyle, though I'm also disturbed that such a subculture grew into existence in the first place. I read somewhere that the older sister thought that 'Christian' is an epithet for many years, due to the way the WBC preacher talked about other churches/denominations.
