it had potential -- kinda fucked over by constant flashback-ing with the characters (that bugs me), if it was allowed to go into a second season and explore the NOW-plot development it probably would have been great
These are like - we've got some astronauts. One is having drama. Let's have a flashback to a time in training when this same astronaut had similar drama, and gives a stilted explanation that's obviously contrived
in the immortal words of The Robot Devil, "You can't just have your characters announce how they feel! That makes me fee angry! "
I don't think B5 gets enough credit for that - JMS almost never resorted to contrived "Here, let me waste 10 minutes of a 45 minute story giving you stilted exposition" crap
and I think that made it all the more rewarding when we DID find things out (cough*Ivonova*cough)
Claudia Black too now that I think about it... but that could just be the hot outfits they dressed her in as Aeryn Sun - she wasn't quite as hot in SG1
@JourneymanGeek she had the BEST lines.
well... actually Lyta Alexander had some pretty awesome lines in season 4/season 5
"I don't like what I'm hearing here! I'm not a great liar! I'm a terrible liar! I don't know who's been saying these things but I want you to know when we get back I am gonna sue somebody! I don't know who and I don't know how but by GOD I am gonna sue somebody ! "
@WesleyDavid that... would tend to put an animal off of the whole sexing thing.
My fish is far more affectionate than my lizard
(who right now is sitting half-in/half-out of his hiding rock, staring at me. I can only assume he's thinking "IT'S TWO IN THE MORNING TURN OFF THAT LIGHT SO I CAN EAT!")
oh for the love of kittens ImageMagick - you're failing your own tests? REALLY?
@voretaq7 I know a girl who has a house filled with aquariums. She swears the fish love her. I think she's insane. She is from east Tennessee so a clinical diagnosis is just a formality.
/me waits for the postscript interpreter to compile.... It's an excuse to upgrade to gs9
"let's fix the code that generates thumbnails for the blog" I told myself. "It's been broken for 2 years, you can't be lazy forever" I said. "It'll be EASY" I said.
Picked my daughter up from school on Monday, but it was cold. She didn't like it much. Unless there happens to be a nice sunny afternoon, the tandem's probably going to parked until after the solstice.
@voretaq7 apparently it does I used about 20 on old closed questions early this morning and I'm showing as having use 0 right now. This neatly explains my low downvote total
Plus you have the whole PSN debacle earlier in the year to bear in mind. That's certainly done mega-damage of my opinion of them as a company, to the point I'm not sure I'd ever buy a PlayStation now
I know. Can we get some downvotes on this answer please. I wouldn't normally encourage this, but enough should apply some sort of asking/answering ban on them, and you'll get that -1 back when it's deleted, which should be pretty soon
@tombull89 was tempting to point out the syntax error with the missing semicolon, but I resisted :P
I would imagine he's testing to see if the pages will run code in <script> tags. Testing to see if he can do some sort of XSS, XSRF or something else beginning with an X lol
Let's do this. What with the DramaLlama being out in full force, I think it's time to take a breather and bring the funny back. To wit: I propose the Santification of your gravatars till after the new year. Some of us have already gotten started. You can use the image as your baseline.
Now ge...
