What About the Voice of Geddy Lee?

Archaeology! Ancient City Found in Mexico! Village Discovered Near Stonehenge! Police to Reunite! (At the f*&%ing Grammys. Now I have to watch the Grammys. Someone kill me.)

Warren Ellis subjects us all to shares an excerpt from Jeff Lint Steve Aylett's surreal parody comic "The Caterer." SMOOTHING THE CHEEK OF REALITY HAS ITS DANGERS!

Hannah links to the poem "Library" by Albert Goldbarth, which turns out to be awesome.

I have discovered that, along with those annoying ads along the side, I have been given the power of polls. Bwah-hah-hah-hah!

Here's the thing. I am, by most objective measures, a fairly geeky person. But I find that many things which are considered more or less core geek loves drive me up the wall. Perhaps you are also somewhat geeky, and encounter this same phenomenenonon. This poll is for you!

For me SMG was never the best thing about the show, although she did grow on me. But I won't try to evangelize you :-)

I loved the show, I hated her. Episodes in which other people got to be cool where thus my favorites. (okay, by the end of the series, I just strongly disliked her.)

By Season 4 or 5 I'd decided that I thought she was actually a pretty good actress--I just found Buffy somewhat inaccessible as a character, especially as time went on.

(Also, Harry Potter? I LOVE Harry Potter. And Lone Wolf and Cub is the greatest work of graphic storytelling ever.)

It is possible that I was totally guessing.

Well, not totally. Since some things I knew. They just didn't seem like enough things for you to hate, so I hadd to add others.

Yeah, I ended up with only six. I expected there would be more.

[tanaise.livejournal.com]

I would have included "everything" on the list, of course.

Heh. It's my first poll! I'm still learning!

She was pretty much my barrier to entry that I never got over. I'll watch an episode here and there, but I never got into it.

But I was a Firefly fan when it was first on the air (unlike all these poseur DVD converts!). Heh.

Fair enough.

I'm right there with you on Firefly. I loved it and mourn it still.
