Still... I was an avid Byron fan in high school, so sometimes I take personal offense when they pair him with Coleridge. The bastards! My high-school self demands justice! :ninja:
I still am  :ninja:

Y'know, my first reflex when someone starts talkin' Klingon is to mention the smoothness of some of their relatives' foreheads, which usually tends to end nasty. Trekkie fights can be mean :ninja:
You mean Hab SoSlI' Quch?  :ninja: :roll: Mine too.

Coincidentally, I'm in the process of downloading "Greek Myths - Tales of Travelling Heroes", a BBC documentary on the origins of Greek myths. Dunno if it's any good, but the BBC has rarely let me down.
And that is what's going in my Little Black Book ;D Never heard of it, I must admit, but it sure sounds interesting.

Girls, this is uncomfortably arousing :unsure:

...

No, please, continue getting your geek on ;D

Speaking of Star Trek, been watching "Shit my dad says", or, as I like to call it, "Shit my Shat says".

It's based on the Twitter feed of the same name, where some guy's dad spews hilarious comments. The show isn't nearly as funny, but it's got it's moments. Every time Shatner comes on screen, for instance.

On the other hand, whenever his TV son (the other one, not the one living with him and tweeting about it) and his wife enter, I cringe. They bring that familiar lackluster American sitcom vibe with them, complete with obvious and painfully idiotic jokes. But hey, maybe somebody likes stuff like that ;D
Can't stop the signal.
