Oh, that would be cruel.
4 yr old walking into our bedroom at 3am
“Daddy, which is worse, water monitor lizards or leaches?”
(we’d been reading a book that is set in Sri Lanka)
Engineers need to install a copper line to the cabinet (for a fibre install)
“Did you just say ‘rubber skin’?”
it’s just like chatting, but you send words.
(I was trying to explain the appeal of async Hardback)
“Did you put your fat tissue in the bag?”
The Ma: Barbara. No, not that Barbara. Or the other one. Barbara Barbara!
Gus: ungggh?
To be fair, it could have been Margory. Or Margories…
“see if it will all fit in the lizard”
Wait, was I in this one?
It was a response to your Terminator comment, yes. Of the three people involved, you didn’t say it and I didn’t say it.
I thought it was a very common reference. Remind me not mention rubber skin again in meatspace.
Daughter schools daddy, No. 263:
After them pointing out something obvious that I had already said I would do…
Daddy: Contrary to popular opinion, I’m not a complete idiot.
Daughter: But you are AN idiot…
Wait, massive rewind. Are we talking O’Brien and Keiko?
“You smell nice.”
“I AM nice.”
Something about this exchange has quietly stuck with me and makes me smile.
I believe so, I haven’t looked too closely into it, but the number of husbands or wives who die for narrative effect is huge.
That’s not exactly an unsuccessful marriage, though, is it? Tragic, but not necessarily unsuccessful?
I concede the point.
We only just watched last episode of DS9 season 6 last night. Still sad.
“Oh my God! Those magnificent bastards, they did it! Yes!”
-paraphrased exclamations by my wife as we watched the finale of the new DuckTales series.
For those not in the know, the creators have managed to put characters and references from every other Disney Afternoon show back in the 80’s into the new DuckTales series at some point in its three seasons, but had missed one. Last episode, they managed to touch on it.
I love the New duck tales cartoon I haven’t seen season 3 but love watching it with the kids. It’s extremely clever and David Tennant alone as Scrooge makes it worth the admission fee. Just don’t tell the kids.
