    I found a new Arcanum disk on Amazon for $15. Now I'll be able to go somewhere past that fucking bridge!

    Please, please, please tell me I'm wrong about thinking I know the reference.
    Doctor related? *Crosses fingers.*

    *vigorously shakes head*
    Okay..I'm too tired.
    I miss read and had a mental image of Xiao wearing a short pleated skirt, tennis shoes, wielding pom-poms and doing the splits.
    It wasn't a bad mental image, mind you, and I think I'll hang on to it for future reference.
    It was just wrong compared to what she actually posted.

    There is nothing wrong with that, and I am most definitely hanging onto the very same thing. :)

    Puppy and DarkFool: *BLUSH* We don't even have cheerleaders here, guys.

    Minuos: Biddly bum biddly bum ooo-OOOO-ooo! *laughter* I love the good Doctor, and Cybermen are just fun. Ah, Earthshock, you made the Cybermen badass once more and killed one of my favourite companions in a single story. (Yes, I am that rare species. I am... an Adric fangirl. You may now proceed with the torment.)

    Torment? I'm too intrigued by the presence of a rare species to consider negativity, though I can only speak for myself (and you made me feel a little better after a crap day, always appreciated). I'm both happy to have been right and entirely unsure as to whether or not it's a good thing, or just one of those bizarre facts of introvert life...which...is kind of like escaping death. No matter what I try, it's always bound to catch up. Bit like the Cybermen themselves, actually...rhythm accompanying. Fun indeed.

    Ah, but for the Dog... *Points around.* Your, umm...territory is still unscathed. :D

    P.S. - No comment on the cheerleader subject.

    So I take it you saw 'The Sound of Drums' a little while ago? I can now tell the Doctor Who fans in my class really easily - I just start 'absent-mindedly' tapping it out on the desk and watching for the people who start twitching. (And did you notice the tapping was to the rhythm of the old version of the theme? I could not stop laughing when I cottoned on.)

    I must admit I'm not completely well-up on the Doctor's recent exploits, but I've seen some when I've remembered. I have in mind what you're speaking of though so I'm quite sure I saw that one. Haven't gone quite as far as unwillingly weeding out the fans via your method though, hehe.

    Ohh, before I forget though, what do you think of the latest guy picked to be The Doctor? Matt Smith, is it? The one whose head shape bears a curious semblance to that of a loaf of bread...

    Believe it or not, I still haven't gotten around to finding a pic. Hang on, I'll swing by the BBC website...

    Oh.

    My.

    God.

    DAVID! DON'T LEAVE!

    That's the first time I've genuinely 'lol'd' online for quite some time. Two pick-me-ups in one day! I owe you big time.

    *curtseys* Why thank you.

    Seriously, though, he looks like an anime character with that hair. Give him some gel and some blonde hair dye and he could cosplay as Cloud Strife. Good LORD I hope they make him cut his hair before he starts filming. Ouch.

    The loaf of bread analogy isn't too far off either. Yikes.

    *pukes at the mention of the second most craptastic show of any kind it has ever been her misfortune to sit through episodes of*

    That has nothing to do with my imagination, or ability to mail you costumes while Puppy sends you a digital camera.

    Exactly. :) It should be the 'I do half the team' style uniform.
