Product placement! That should net us more money! Maybe we could have everyone drive around in shiny new cars they couldn't possibly afford or something. And dress them in big-brand clothes of course.

Syphoning official funding as well, very good.

But you'll have to continue the work alone for now, I fear I have zeds to catch. 'Night!

I always knew President Bush secretly pretended to be a British person online.

@ Plaz. Exactly.

Sleep well.

@ Parashoot. Ahhh. Yeah. Uhh... totally. We must invade Muslamia.

You ain't president anymore. You ain't the boss of me.

I can call up my friend Tony! He's President of Great Britain, dontcha know?

Can he use his influence to prevent Lionsgate from rebooting Twilight?

I am dead serious. There are rumors going around that they would do this if Meyer got on board, and she's said she wouldn't be against it. God help us all.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

I actually don't mind Twilight and even I think that's a bad idea. The final movie isn't even out yet, people!

simcity simcity simcity simcity simcity. :D

There should be a trope...what is it when people are most productive when they're suffering? Earn Your Happy Ending?

These days, I feel pretty content where I am. Bored on occasion, but that's way better than stress. Still, there are times I wish I'd want to do something significant...though lack of drive and other things are big inhibitors...

That's how humans are I guess. You should be grateful you've averted complaining about your comparatively insignificant problems as much as people who are say... Living in third world conditions. Some people always complain the same amount.

Anyway, my Anime experience tells me you need to locate yourself a Haruhi Suzumiya!

...

Okay, I really don't know. A change every now and then is good and if you have something you want to do, just do it.

It seems to me you aren't completely content with the way your life is now, or to put it another way, if you were to continue your life exactly as it is now you would have regrets right? So just do... Something?

The only solution I could find was to do something completely different.

After all, I feel getting locked into a routine is an excellent way to end up 40 before you know it.

If this were word association, I would have said "samsara".

We've entered an endless recursion of rebirth.

Well, Mr Blair is an ex-PM, so no, not really. He's fucking rich, but not that rich.

Our actual PM? In theory, yes he could. In theory he could, actually.

All we really need is a stake, fire and Hugh Jackman.

Or just a science labcoat and some acidic chemicals.

Beyond the Lampshade... hm. Seems interesting, I guess.

@ Pho. You're just saying that because you got a new labcoat.

@Komodin: I don't recommend going there. Things are going to hell over there, I heard.

Oh, it is? Oh that's a pity :(

Why?

@Rocket Dude: AH, figured as such. I'd probably be constantly badgered over my P5 decisions, anyway.

@AHR: Myrm told me that a bunch of military tropers of the abrasive type are there, and some guy from SA joined there who is also rather...off-putting.

I see.

Hm, the site in general just comes across as being bitter and mean-spirited as hell. Rather uninviting, if you ask me.

I'm guessing Beyond the Lampshade is a spin-off site, correct? What's the history, or whatevs?

It's made and frequented by bitter ex-tropers.

Aren't they also trying to improve tv tropes? Somehow?
