I got as far as Dogma. I think I was supposed to be a lot more impressed than I was.

Nothing some dog food and a tourist's guide to Scotland won't cure.

Anyone remember that scene in the old New Mutants where Sam suddenly didn't recognize Rahne because she had lipstick on? Yeah, even though she was the only short-haired red-headed female in the whole town. I am annoyed at that moment of sitcom-bad writing to this day.

I never believed it. There's *oblivious* and then there's "Too inept to tie one's own shoes or figure out which end of the cereal box to open at breakfast."

On a related note, I'm pretty sure even if I went out without my glasses, everyone would still know it's me. This would especially apply if I ran into my long-time pal the hard-boiled professional reporter for a major metropolitan newspaper.

Reporters, I would expect, have a pretty canny intuition.

Yeah, but you'd think that evolution would compensate for that somehow.

Yeah, but you'd think that evolution would compensate for that somehow. It did. He's got a really thick head. Maybe Sunspot temporarily blinded him? Maybe Ms Moonstar had been projecting an illusion to make Rahne feel better about fitting in, but that illusion had meant that no one recognised her when it was removed?

I guess Sam's thick head helps him out sometimes...

As of his last post, thoth lad is officially overqualified to be an editor at DC or Marvel. (Yeah, I mean, let's talk about people who've made being thick-headed into an art form. A bad, bad, overpriced art form.)

As of his last post, thoth lad is officially overqualified to be an editor at DC or Marvel. Thank you. Thank you all. That last join the dots puzzle was a tough one, but I persevered, and I gratefully accept the editorial post. (Yeah, I mean, let's talk about people who've made being thick-headed into an art form. A bad, bad, overpriced art form.) There's still the green shoots of art out there. It's just that a nothing has grown in a couple of the big flower beds for a while. On the plus side, there's plenty of manure on them, and hopefully that will make the ground more fertile in the future. What is art? Do you know it when you see it? I'll know it when I finger paint it, and sell it for millions

Making characters stupid IS an easy way to introduce conflict and drama into a story.

I never seem to have to introduce it purposely in real life. It just shows up on its own, like magic!

I used to worry all the time about accidentally offending people. Now I realize, it's going to happen anyway, so just apologize and move on.

I do try not to offend, but it does leave some awkward pauses when I try to come up with something else to say.
As Wang Chung said..."being yourself is the main thing."
"...not having to believe in a thing to be interested in it and not having to explain a thing to appreciate the wonder of it."

I still don't much care for most Eighties pop, but I did spend $3 on a Klymaxx LP the other day so I could torment mr_cleome with "I'd Still Say Yes" during the hockey playoffs.
