The Lost LRRcast

[James]

Here it is. Some scientists date this thing all the way back to 5 weeks ago. Others say 5,000,000 years.

You be the judge.

[Vigafre]

I should have been asleep an hour ago. Oh well, it was well spent.

[Arius]

About halfway through: "If this goes up on time." "It probably won't."

That killed me.

Same here.


Also, it's funny they mentioned the leggings thing. College is rough because of that.

P.S.: The Next/Previous links don't work correctly if you start from a post number not divisible by 25.

P.P.S.: You're on question 1450 of what is currently 2084. You have 634 "questions", on just over 25 pages, to go through to catch up. Good Luck!

LRR, thank you for this little birthday present.

I know its an open one, and you didn't mean it for me, or as a present, but thanks.

EDIT: The best "Sci Fi" saying, hands down:

May peace be with you in the everlasting now - The Dead Lady of Clown Town

[Yaxley]

Mmmm, sweet podcasty goodness, how I've missed you. And now two, practically back to back. It's an embarrassment of riches, I tell you.

[Keab42]

I enjoyed the Pratchett discussion. You're 2 books behind there's Making Money and Unseen Academicals.

[Darknezz]

Hooray, yet another LRRCast.

[Master Gunner]

The Stargazer (Picard's old ship) was a Constellation-class.
Khan's ship was a Miranda-class.

I can remember that while both tired and drunk, just being tired is no excuse to me.

The Moist von Lipwig ones are my favourite of the Discworld novels, so take it from me, he's a new character as of Going Postal, and wasn't in The Truth

Going postal is, in fact, my second favourite book next to Dome, which had a madman on a giant cat causing mayhem, and someone nearly driven mad by sensory deprivation torture, and also a bunch of sci fi stuff.

Anyway, back on topic: I'm reaaally looking forward to the upcoming Sky One adaptations of the Moist novels. Hogfather was good in many ways, but the pacing was painful, reminding me of how you describe the Eternal Sonata cutscenes. Hope they fix it!

(Edit: changed BBC to Sky One, as that's who's making all the adaptations)

[Cybren]

Yes. to crush your enemies, you gnocchi.

ANYWAY, that movie isn't bad. It's amazing and has one of the best film scores in history

[The Hyena]

As regards to the shaving question, I've shaved my face, my armpits, my crotch, and both legs. But besides the face everything else was experimental only and I've never done it since.

[Koolpin]

Oho! The previous post reminds me:

It's possible to shave just the tip of a cat's tail, so almost all the fur is gone at the end, but you do it totally flat! So instead of a smooth taper to the end of the tail, it all of a sudden squares off.

Ahhh, the things you find out when you're bored.. it's also possible to make a flamethrower with an 8 foot flame entirely using stuff from a dollar store.

Dear Kathleen,

If you want to hear some amazing, terribly unpronounceable names, watch Senator Stampingston's introductions to experts in Metalocalypse. I'm pretty sure the writers make these up purely to screw with Mark Hamill.

My personal favourite: Milminiman Lamilim Swimwambly

[Lyinginbedmon]

For those who should watch more Ghost in the Shell:

The Jameson cyborg body.

For reference, they're about as tall as the average person's knees

[ThrashJazzAssassin]

For those of you who can't see broken image links:



Actually, Kathleen mentioning the Jameson prompted me to look for an animated gif of one, and as far as I can tell there are none. Weird. I was certain I'd at least be able to find one taken from Tachikomatic Days, but apparently not.

[Lyinginbedmon]

I don't know what you're talking about...

[iamafish]

I don't know what you're talking about...

yeah... that

[ThrashJazzAssassin]

Ah, the wonders of post retcon. But you can't fool me, Lying.

[NekoDaimyo]

Man, you guys just reminded me that I actually went and saw the X/1999 movie in a theater in Seattle. And yet... I can't recall a damn thing about it. Other than it was completely nonsensical, of course.

[Splunge]

Final Fantasy VII has been re-released for download from the PSN Store. Sure, it'd be nice if they re-released a physical copy, but it is there.

[PearlSpark]

I think A Little TOO Human would be great as a full length film. The war with the bears would make for great special effects.
