The surprise Sherlock shirt I got is pretty excellent, but the cut is tunic-length.
So I currently have “221B Baker Street” hovering over my crotch.

Hey
Hey ASOIAF/GoT fandom
Protip:
There is only one male feminist in this series whose surname isn’t Martell, and it’s Jon Snow.
Just putting that out there.

Good lord, what the hell happened in the screen-adaptations-of-books world when I was at work? My dash is yelling about Harry Potter, Hunger Games, AND Game of Thrones, and I don’t know why!
(Well, GoT is because of the finale, but I don’t know what it did today. I’m gonna just assume that everybody who is neither Sansa nor a Lannister continued to be underwhelming and Varys and...
Finally got caught up on Korra!
Thoughts (generally non-spoilery):
-Damn, shit got REAL.
-TENZIN AND HIS FAMILY <333333
-BOLIN IS THE GREATEST BRO (“You’re a bad idea!”)
-LIN AND KORRA IN THE 7TH EP OMG
-Basically I LOVE ALL THE MAIN CAST
-…Except Mako. I don’t actively dislike him (his actions re: all the romantic shenanigans set me off like none other, but I think we’re supposed to...

How Fresh Blood Will Invigorate Game of Thrones →
By David Barr KirtleyEmail Author June 1, 2012 | 4:15 pm
The large number of new characters reportedly coming to Game of Thrones next season — some of whom I’d given up hope of ever seeing on the show — should give fans hope that the television series will hew more closely to its vaunted source material.
Aside from the occasional pointless nude scene and some obvious struggles to tell such a...

If I were in the Hunger Games I would use one of the parachutes and gift containers and put all kinds of poisonous berries in them and then climb trees and send them down to unsuspecting tributes. Oh, you thought you were getting a nice fruit salad? Think again. POISON.

Magic Hat has a new (read: introduced since I moved away from VT) beer that is brewed with dandelion.
I feel like this is the physical embodiment of a Katniss/Johanna fic.

My dad continues to slog through ADWD
Dad: Nothing happens! The only one I'm interested in is Arya, and she's hardly been in there at all!
Me: But she was already in the last book, remember? So in this one we just check in with her.
Dad: Well, she hasn't shown up yet, but right now she's headed north.
Me: .,.?
Dad: To marry that lord's son or something.
Me: Ohhhhh. Oh no.
Me: No no no no no
Me: That's not Arya.
Me: You should be really, really glad that's not Arya.

Nooooooooo, the DVD’s too scratched to play anymore. D: No fair! I was getting all invested*!
Also I really like that Ethan’s best friend/lawyer is a lady? Bechdel requirements still aren’t met (since all anyone talks about is Ethan), but but but Devyani and Ethan don’t seem to have dated, so fully platonic female/male relationship! Yay! Plus, having a traditionally...

Faux pockets are an abomination. If you’re going to bother putting pocket flaps on something, add the G-d damn pockets.
No love,

100% true
Especially the false back pockets, which usually result in awkward public butt-groping for me.
1. An honest thank you, movie, for putting the pretty dancing scene right after the scene that touched on a whole bunch of anxieties.
2. nooooo dammit why is the obnoxious aspiring magician dude who is a TOTAL STALKER going to be a thing he is not endearing he is ANNOYING AND CREEPY

According to the subtitles thus far:
“No, Mr. Patel” is Hindi for “I disagree.”
“You’re the most horrible woman in the world!” is Hindi for “You’re a terrible person.”
And “gone mad” is Hindi for “lost my mind.”
APPARENTLY ENGLISH WORDS DO NOT MEAN WHAT I THINK THEY MEAN.
Um okay, you cannot go from Female Lead being hurt and angry over Male Lead’s desire for euthanasia straight into LIGHTHEARTED COMEDIC HIJINKS WITH JAUNTY MUSIC.
That is some Glee-caliber mood whiplash there, movie.

Watching Guzaarish despite some qualms, but I’ve gotta say that this opening sequence is pretty A+.

An idea that occurred to me at work and can someone please help me make this a thing if it isn’t already?
