everything but the girl

Do something completely ordinary and have a tonne of people pitch an insane fit over it.

She's not stupid. Everyone involved in the purchase of her story, and everyone who watches it for something other than MST-esque purposes, however, is.

I clearly need an OMGWTF? icon, but this was, at least, a good excuse to try out that WTF? tag. Whee.

In other news, Sidekick II #2, which I borrowed from my mom as she doesn't use it when she's not traveling anyway, is also broken, but it should self-fix when the battery wears down. Wish I could open it and remove it but there lies warrenty-voiding. So, woe.

Is anyone planning on going to Spellbound in Chicago for HBP?

Also - a note on my "name" here on LJ - I've changed it from Mission: Space Cadet, which is what it's been since March of 2004, when I first went on Mission: Space at EPCOT. A four year old boy died on the ride this week, and I'm a little wibbly about it, in large part because, as of the now, nobody knows why. It sounds like he may've had a seizure, but nobody knows what precipitated it. From the moment I went on it, I was overwhelmed by the ride and the experience and the sensation, and I think I'm unexpectedly over-upset by his death. Because of that, I just don't want to see it up there for now, hence the change. I also removed a few journals from my flist - none of them had been updated in the last 90+ weeks, but if any of those people are still around, I'm happy to add you back - just let me know via comment or email.
