Dear Mr. Whedon,

I go by FreeholdDM, and I just wanted to say how much of a postive impact your work has had on my life.....

of course it has. It has given me a focal point for all my unrestrained hatred.

Yeah....he protesteth too much....I can totally see it. He's got Firefly sheets, and The Buffy the Vampire Slayer Christmas album on permanent playback up in his crib.

I bet he's even got a mock-up of The Chair they used in Dollhouse to program people. Probably sits in it at night and watches re-runs.

i believe that is where Whedon gets his fans from. I need to locate it so that it can be destroyed, thereby freeing an untold number of people who are blind to the truth of his "work ".

Morning, all. What did I miss?

So, I just got an offer to work from home at my current job! I would have to make the commute to Atlanta occasionally, but, otherwise, I'd be working from home.

I wish I would have been offered this earlier, but it's a very good offer.

What do you guys think?

I could not do this, the kids would drive me nuts.

My kids are old enough that they won't be bothering me. They're at that lovely stage of pretending their parents don't exist. :)

Apart from the fact that you already have an apartment, where would you rather work?

If you have the discipline for it - I think it's awesome. I have a few friends working IT from home (one for The Hartford and the other for Amazon) and they both absolutely love it.

Thanks. When I mentioned it to my wife, she wasn't really happy with the timing (I agree, since I already basically set up the apartment in Charlotte).

Tell her you'll do housework on your breaks!

Florence is a goddess. I'm liking the new album.

Would you say that "if Kate Bush had written a song for Eurythmics" would be a good one-sentence description of the new single?

(Do they even call it a single, still?)

Also I'm up to some shenanigans over at the Advice forum. I was pleased with myself, but admittedly my sense of humor stopped maturing at 13.

Heh.

I think someone is upset.

Oopsie.

I wonder how many flags it got. :)

Probably quite a few.

I feel bad for angering the PMG though - I figured if that trashy Elf thread was valid for advice that mine would hold some water, seeing as all I did was change out "elf" for "Mother". Transitive property and all that.

[TOZ]

augh why am I laughing at that thread it's so horrible.

[Gary Teter]

The elf thread was right on the verge. It did have a question in it which was actually a request for advice. But yeah, that one was close.

I'd rather work for my current employer. The answer seems pretty self-evident, then. :)

I highly recommend the movies, but general viewers should note there are no explosions in them (except maybe, internal, emotional ones). Also, they fall in that class of French movies that make me think I could actually learn French if I got serious about it.

I need to get to the point where I can know french, not just translate it kind of, if I think real hard, and turn my head the right way.

I guess the style of movie means they deliver their lines slowly and deliberately, so I catch all the cognates. Hnnh-hnnh!

French was really, really difficult for me. I took 4 years of it in grade school and I just struggled constantly... so I kind of feel your pain.

Awesome. So if I'm correct, we all just hang out here and talk about nothing, right? I think I can handle that.

I can understand it just fine, but for some reason take way too long to translate in my head before I can actually say anything in French. And I'm just the opposite with Russian. I speak it without even pausing, but I reallybstruggle to understand when someone else speaks it.
