From 1952 to 1956 Brigitte Bardot appeared in seventeen films. Though she was a relatively unknown fashion model in early 1952 by 1956 she was one of the most famous international celebrities in the world.

I didn't even know it counted as a separate country on ff.net.

I've also had a couple of readers from the United Arab Emirates, and from somewhere called "Satellite".

I have never in my life known a small child who regularly used "me" in the nominative case as children in Silver Age DC Comics did.


The only character in all of literature who has been described as "badnass" while using the phrase "vile miscreant."

The stereotypical speech patterns of Asians and Native Americans in comics/movies actually have roots in grammatical differences between Asiatic/European languages. For example, Chinese lacks tense, and therefore it was difficult for Chinese immigrants to master the use of tense, thus contributing to the stereotype.

So... Cookie Monster was fresh off the boat from China or fresh off the train from a Rez in Oklahoma when Sesame Street hired him?

That almost makes sense to me! laugh

Cookie Monster was the original illegal immigrant; after all, they only paid him in Chips Ahoy.

They tried to, but the Muppet Anti-Defamation League put a stop to it. (Even illegal muppets have some rights.)

Okay, back to randomness:

I just got back from picking up a few things at the supermarket. Total cost as appearing on the receipt: $6.66.

I was at the supermarket a few weeks ago, and the bill came to the exact year of my birth.

(Okay, so I'm semi-random. Sue me.)

My summary of Cheshire and Deathstroke:

Ooh, I have poison claws and blew up a small country. I mothered a child with a superhero. I HATE HIM! I love him. HATE HIM! Love him. HATE HIM! Did I mention I have poison claws?

I'm the world's greatest dad and my children don't appreciate me. Join my team and I'll give you what you want but I won't tell you how because I know everything and it's a secret. AAH I've been fighting children my entire life!
