The Last Daughter of Krypton OOC

WOOHOO
SOMEONE GOT IT


The scene Lunar's talking about.

Lunar, you so get a prize. I just need to umn, think of one.

("Adventures in Babysitting" also has Anthony Rapp in it, and he is made of awesome.)

Yeah, that's a great movie, and one of my favorite scenes. I talk about it all the time. (I don't own that movie, but I just saw where a local station will be showing it later today).

Vincent D'onofrio also played "Edgar" in Men In Black, Leonard in Full Metal Jacket (gotta love that movie! Semper Fi!), and currently plays on Law and Order or CSI or one of those cop shows (I HATE cop shows!).
 
Definitely good times, bro!

For those that are wondering, the words spoken by Thor in my last post were from Old Norse.

Va'n. = "Hope"


austrvegr spá = "the prophecy"
 
If we're dealing with Old Country languages, Ceri is reminding me that it's not too late to wish y'all

"Nadolig Llawen."

...whatever that means.
 
merry xmas here.when will be Boxing Day?

Boxing Day, for Brits (like myself) and Aussies (like the much-missed Superman1496) and Canadians (like James Howlett), and possibly for other countries in the world that I'm not recalling at present, Boxing Day is (usually) the day after Christmas. This is a holdover from bygone days, when servants would have to spend their entire Christmases doing Christmasy things for their lords and masters... the master would then, in a gesture of noblesse oblige, spend at least some time the following day serving the servants, and making sure their Christmastime was merry. The "boxing" refers to the master boxing up his Christmas dinner leftovers and donating these to the servants' festivities.

Religiously, it's also associated with Saint Stephen's Day and Saturnalia.

Mostly in America, Boxing Day is a day of shopping sales and gift-card redemption. (To which I am not looking forward.)

...Happy Boxing Day in advance, everyone.

I'm sacking out. God Bless.

Happy Boxing Day to you, Chas.

Don't wake me up when you get up, please. I'm off, ya know, and I'd like to sleep in...

...unless....well...you know...
 
thats it.

I'm getting a basset hound & naming him Kirby!

I have a cat named Jack.

He has been in many stories. In one particularly memorable tale (two, really, both cut excruciatingly sadly short), he belonged to a girl called Kirby.

Funnily enough, the first time I gave Jack to Kirby, I didn't even make the connection until later.
 
I have a cat, who really is more like my son than a pet. I never wanted a cat. Really, growing up I hated cats. But I would seriously have a severe mental breakdown if anything ever happened to my cat.

Bout this time last year, my neighborhood was evacuated due to a fractured gas main. I threatened a cop with bodily harm if he wouldn't let me back in to get my cat. A few minutes later I was walking out of my house with my cat in my arms. Couldn't leave him there. What if something did happen?

Yeah... maybe I should seek professional help... but hey, I'm happy and so is Gabriel.

Vincent D'Onofrio was also the freaky-ass bad guy in "The Cell." Interesting as his performance was, I don't actually watch that movie for Vincent, but for Vince Vaughn. Vaughn's performance was gentle and nuanced when it needed to be and bad-ass heroic when it needed to be. He was goodness-obsessive and more than a little damaged but he wasn't going to let that stuff get in the way of saving lives and clobbering bads.

Unfortunately, this means I cannot enjoy Vaughn's performances as the comedic slacker typecast nearly as much as I would like, because I know he's capable of so much more. (Same thing happened with Will Ferrell in "Stranger Than Fiction"-- he went back to type with "Blades of Glory" after that and I was like noooooooo)
 
Hay, Lunar.

Did Merick think that stuff about Ferris and the cake, or did he say that aloud?

I dun wan have Chloe accidentally manifest telepathy.
